Born in Harstad, Norway, in 1980, Stian Klo breathed and lived music 24/7 since his teenage years, exploring the many genres the scene had to offer. After moving to Oslo at the age of 19, he quickly established himself as a DJ, while working for a local record store, pushing both records and technical equipment. Stian’s musical preference veers towards dirty, electro/tech/acid monsters, but don’t be surprised if you hear the odd melodic/proggy number, making him a very versatile DJ.
Probably better known to you as one of the residents on the famous Oslo Nights radio show, which he runs on DI.FM together with Lars Jacobsen, Stian brought a key contribution to the success of the show, which so far has received amazing feedback, just recently picked up by XM Radio and WorldSpace in the US. In partnership with another well-known upcoming producer, Ozgur Can, this summer Stian has launched his very own record label, FURRY MUSIC, aimed at showcasing fresh and innovative electronic music from the vast selection of new breed producers. A 2nd label is in the works as well, PRAESUL RECORDS, an all digital venture, which Stian runs together with his Seyton partner, Thomas Nokling (Manipura).
2005 has been a key year in Stian’s career, with gigs all over the world: US, Romania, Poland, UK, Canada, Egypt, Slovakia, Greece, Holland, Turkey, and a tour of Australia, as well as numerous guest appearances on radio shows around the globe. His increased popularity both as a DJ and producer is simply the natural consequence of Stian’s innate talent and dedication, hard work, and amazing creative drive and energy, fueled by his and sincere passion for the music. If you are in Oslo, drop by Sikamikanico to hear him play at his Furry Music clubnight.
Production-wise, Stian has under his belt collaborations with the likes of Espen Gulbrandsen, Ozgur Can, Thomas Nokling (Manipura) and Elusive, so keep your eyes peeled for forthcoming releases on Perc Trax, Invent, Looq, Maris Music, Precinct, Method, Vapour, Lowriders, Heavy Rotation, Furry Music, CP Recordings, L2 Music, Infamous Light, and more. His productions under the aliases Furry Nipples (with Ozgur Can), Likwit, Seyton (with Thomas Nokling), Espen & Stian (with Espen Gulbrandsen), and of course his real name, have received massive support and accolades from the likes of John Digweed, Sasha, James Zabiela, Paul Oakenfold, Paul van Dyk, Hernan Cattaneo, Tiësto, Fergie, Way Out West, Pete Tong, Armin van Buuren, Max Graham, Eric Prydz, Kasey Taylor, Kosmas Epsilon, Markus Schulz, Gwill Morris, Anthony Pappa, Marco V, Shiloh, Danny Tenaglia, Martin H, Satoshi Tomiie, Steve Lawler, Perc and lots more.
