For over 7 years he was the singer, bassist and songwriter of a band who rocked North Germany with a dark melodic grunge-rock sound. After moving to Berlin and being inspired by his influences Jan found his passion in electronic music. Making a tough decision to quit the band, he traded his guitar for an apc40 and 5x8Spur-Matrix and began producing and performing solo.
Today his sound can be described as a mixture of Radiohead, Muse, Bodi Bill, Stephan Bodzin and James Holden - a beautiful balancing act between melancholic, melodic electro-pop and euphoric minimal techno making Jan one of the most interesting and promising young artist in Berlin at the moment."

We almost have made it
Jumping the gun
and we celebrated
The damage is done
We haven't yet paid it
What have I become?
What have we created?

When you let me in
I can be your friend)
can I scape it
the dark that we've done
feels like unchaining

The lyrics to Jan Blomqvist's song "Dark Noise" describe the aftermath of a situation where the singer and others have acted irresponsibly, causing damage without fully considering the consequences. The opening lines reflect on this situation, with the singer acknowledging that they have made mistakes and almost achieved a goal, but at a significant cost. They ask themselves what they have become, and what they have created in the process.
The distorted vocals that come next could represent a shift to another perspective or someone else's voice. This voice questions whether the darkness of the situation can be escaped, as if it were a tangible force. The singer may be trying to understand if there is a way to undo or mitigate the damage that has been done. They ask if it is too late now and where they went wrong.
The final modified vocals offer a glimmer of hope. The singer says they can be a friend to someone if they are let in, suggesting that there is a possibility of repairing relationships and starting anew.
Overall, the lyrics suggest that the singer is grappling with guilt and remorse over past actions. They are trying to come to terms with the consequences of those actions and searching for a way to move forward.

We’re jumping the gun and we celebrated
The damage is done, we haven't yet paid it

I'm the darkness in your mind again
Just beneath the skin wearing you thin

The bite in the bitter words
I’m painting the scene absurd
Remember the coldness hurts
'Cause I am the darkness in your own mind again
I’m knocking to come back in I’m your oldest friend

Just beneath the skin wearing you thin
