"Music is emotion, and through electronic music emotions are transfered more easily when the sound is warm and organic as opposed to canned and cold. Those who've listened to Jan Blomqvist know that his music definitely doesn't belong to the latter category because the sounds he uses are 100 % self-formed and perfectly underscore his distinct and secure voice, making his music alive and close.
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 her 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 has 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."

Same Mistake
by Jan Blomqvist
The other room, comatose by all the screens,
Blown away by another perfect scene.
I don't care
I am so bored, all the real things can't compete,
Hollywood paint my day so incomplete.
And every street I walk, every place i sit,
and every film I saw, almost ruined it.
And all the shiny things, that the picture brings,
turn a normal day, into a cheap cliché.
You know what...
Whatever we wanna get, we never get.
I keep on buying all the things we don't need,
Just to impress all the ones we don't meet.
I don't care.
Just regret there I acted so damn fake.
You know what, you have made the same mistake.
And all the cigarettes, all the talking heads,
buying happiness, it just never rests.
And all the drugs we take, so we can sleep awake,
and watch the colors fade, broken masquerade.
You know what.
Whatever we wanna get, we never get.
