The Seattle Eagle is excited to bring you Seattle's own producer and DJ extrodaniare, Hanssen (Hush Hush, Hunt & Gather)
Hanssen is a human person called Brit Hansen. In high school they started making rave music and mostly bad industrial music with another human person called Dave Pezzner. They kept doing it, and eventually came to call their collaborative project “Jacob London”. Many other human people all over the planet Earth heard their quirky house music and appreciated it. But after some time, they stopped collaboratively producing music as much, because Dave Pezzner wanted to become famous with a solo project called “Pezzner”. (He has since accomplished this goal.)
Hanssen also continued making music. Getting away from irony and sample-based, pop-culture-referencing techniques, this new music has been much more focused on sounds created by make-believe machines called “software synthesizers”, a bass guitar, and various bits of audio found laying about the room. Dabbling in many forms of sometimes-danceable, often-ambient, and occasionally-just-a-little-bit-quirky electronic music, Hanssen has had remixes and original releases published by fine music labels such as Ghostly International, Om Records, Hush Hush, Innerflight, Viva Recordings, KnightRiders, and many more. A new Hanssen album will be released this summer on Hush Hush Recordings. Jacob London is preparing to stage a large-scale quirk assault on dance floors everywhere later this summer as well.
