Blå x Oslo Jazzfestival FENNESZ
Fennesz er soloprosjektet til den østerrikske musikeren, komponisten og lydkunstneren Christian Fennesz. Siden starten av 90-tallet har han vært en av de mest innovative og innflytelsesrike aktørene innen elektronisk og eksperimentell musikk. Mye takket være banebrytende utgivelser, som for eksempel albumklassikeren Endless Summer, som i år feirer 25-årsjubileum og skal spilles i sin helhet denne kvelden på Blå!
Endless Summer er en bauta innen elektronisk musikk og en av de store klassikerne fra 00-tallet uansett sjanger. På albumet blander Fennesz mesterlig elementer av post-rock, glitch og ambient, til en harmonisk og nærmest psykedelisk helhet. Gitarspillet som veves sammen med det elektroniske, skaper en mosaisk og melodisk effekt, og gjør Fennesz til en mester i faget.
I tillegg til en imponerende solokarriere, er Fennesz også en ettertraktet samarbeidspartner og har jobbet med blant andre Ryuichi Sakamoto, David Sylvian, og dessuten Jim O’Rourke, som han nylig var på turné med. Han har i tillegg komponert musikk for film, teater og flere lydinstallasjoner.
Vi ser frem til å feire 25-årsjubileet til albumet Endless Summer på Blå, som er det perfekte stedet å oppleve Fennesz særegne og atmosfæriske lydlandskap.

Øyanatt x Bigup: Alix Perez + Little Miss Lucifer
Alix Perez (UK) | Little Miss Lucifer | Drunkfunk | Fjell | Simon Peter | Tech
A little bit of drum and a little bit of bass remains the recipe for our opening salvo during Øyanatt. Bigup take up their midweek position as our Drum and Bass and Jungle massive and they bring Alix Piriz to the basement for this one while Little Miss Lucifer takes on the sauna for a rare Drum and Bass set.
From a grassy hill in Tøyen, we trace a familiar path into the beating heart of Oslo, where the steady thump of a Funktion One wall of bass calls the dissipating crowd. Filing out from the Øya Festival perimeter, the party continues into the night as the festival takes over the city’s various clubs and establishments for the official after-party to Øya.
Jaeger takes its place again amongst the Øyanatt programme with a host of international guests and local residents playing the week -long festival. It’s one of those times in the year where we pull out all the stops as we fill both rooms and run the gauntlet from Drum and Bass to Techno, with Orgazón, Optimo, Laurence Guy and Alix Piriz visiting from abroad.

Flux Festival
Last year, we brought Flux out of the forest and into the beating heart of Oslo - and in 2026, we’re back for the second year in a row at the legendary Hausmania Kulturhus. A cultural gem that hosts hundreds of artists and remains a true beacon for art, community, and subculture. We’re proud to call Hausmania our partner once again.
This year’s edition, we’re introducing a new venue: @boksennoise. That brings the festival to three stages, each with a distinct aesthetic, from open-air energy to the main indoor floor, and Boksen: stripped-back and intimate. More contrast between spaces, more room to explore, and more artists in the lineup.
Expect a carefully curated lineup of local talent and international friends, each bringing their own distinct edge to the weekend.
Blind tickets and early bird full festival passes are available now in limited quantities.This year we’ve also built our own ticket service, making it easier to buy and manage your pass directly through us.
Lineup:
AUTOGENESIS [AU] (LIVE)
BRIX [NO]

Blå: Egyptian Lover
The \"King of the 808\" er tilbake til Blå! Los Angeles baserte Egyptian Lover startet karrieren sin som DJ for Ice-T en av de første gangster-rapperne i gruppen deres The Radio Crew. Han slo seg virkelig opp i hip-hop/electro scenen i 1984 med låten Egypt Egypt på Freak Beat labelet sitt, som etter fem utgivelser ble til Egyptian Empire Records. Han var også medlem av electro/hip-hop gruppen Uncle Jamm’s Army. Rundt milenniumskiftet så utrykte nederlandske DJ’s som I-F og Serge fra Clone Records hvor mye Egyptian Lover hadde inspirert dem. Dette førte til at Clone Records startet å distribuere skivene hans i Europa igjen, og senere samarbeidet mellom Egyptian Lover og Clone affilierte Dexter og Alden Tyrell under navnet The Clone Machine. Som DJ, råkker han brakka med tekniske ferdigheter på platespillerne, en 808 trommemaskin og en mikrofon.

Villa: DJ Hell
For more than three decades, DJ Hell has been one of the most important figures in electronic music history. As the founder of International Deejay Gigolo Records, he helped define the electroclash movement at the turn of the millennium, creating a cultural phenomenon that fused techno, new wave, fashion, art and pop into an entirely new aesthetic.
Equally revered as a DJ, producer, label head and curator, Hell has spent his career shaping the direction of electronic music from both behind the decks and behind the scenes. His label became home to seminal releases from artists such as Miss Kittin, The Hacker and Tiga, while his own productions have become enduring club classics.
From underground clubs to the world\'s most renowned festivals and cultural institutions, DJ Hell\'s influence extends far beyond the dancefloor. A true architect of modern electronic music culture, he remains as visionary, provocative and relevant today as he was when he first emerged more than thirty years ago.

Villa: Objekt
Objekt (TJ Hertz) is a Berlin-based producer and DJ, born in Tokyo. He broke through in 2011 with his self-released Objekt #1 and #2, quickly earning acclaim for his innovative, genre-defying club tracks and releases on labels like Hessle Audio, alongside remixes for Radiohead and SBTRKT. His work has been widely supported by artists such as Aphex Twin and Autechre, with standout tracks like “Ganzfeld” and “Theme From Q” becoming modern club staples. His albums Flatland (2014) and Cocoon Crush (2018) on PAN further cemented his reputation for detailed, imaginative electronic music, both receiving scores of 8.0 on Pitchfork, which praised Cocoon Crush for its forward-thinking, intricately sculpted sound design. As a DJ, he’s widely regarded as one of the most compelling of his generation - known for precise, unpredictable sets that move fluidly across genres. His 2016 Kern Vol. 3 mix for Tresor was described by Resident Advisor as “a window into the very essence of DJing.” In 2024, he launched the label Kapsela as a platform for his own work and like-minded artists. Across all his output, Objekt is defined by meticulous attention to detail and a boundary-pushing, genre-agnostic approach.

Cosmopolite: Minyo Crusaders
When Film fra Sør and Cosmopolite join forces once again, we open the doors to an evening where film and music reflect one another — across continents, traditions, and expressions.
The night begins with mingling and screenings of short films, before we gather for the concert. In the days leading up to it, you’ll also have the chance to get to know the band through special festival screenings of their documentary.
Minyo Crusaders draw from the Japanese folk music tradition of min’yō — songs historically connected to work, rituals, and everyday life across different regions of Japan. With deep respect for the material, but without being bound by it, they open the tradition up and let it meet rhythms from around the world.
The result is a sound where Japanese melodies move seamlessly through cumbia, afrobeat, reggae, and Latin American influences. It is precise, rhythmic, and full of energy — yet still rooted in something older, in stories that continue to resonate.
Since forming in Tokyo in 2011, Minyo Crusaders have built a strong international following, performing at festivals such as Roskilde Festival, WOMAD, and Sziget Festival. With their album From Japan With Love (2026), they continue to develop their sound — guided by a clear love for the tradition they come from, and a curiosity for where it can go next.
This evening at Cosmopolite is an invitation to experience exactly that: how old songs can find new life, and how music and film together can open spaces we didn’t know we needed.
More information about the short films before the concert will be announced soon.
Please note: In the days leading up to the concert, you can also get to know the band through screenings of the documentary Bring Minyo Back! at the festival.
About Film fra Sør:
Film fra Sør is the world coming to Oslo. A world of strange, moving, unsettling, and joyful stories that hit you in the gut and open hearts. With the newest and best from Africa, Asia, and Latin America, Oslo’s oldest film festival brings us closer to cultures some know deeply and others are only beginning to discover. Together with powerful stories, international guests, and exciting events, Film fra Sør has become one of the city’s most important cultural arenas.
The 36th edition of Film fra Sør takes place from November 5–15, 2026.
