Ost & Kjex Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

So, what came first, the cheese or the biscuit? - That has been the discussion around many a smorgasbord. If you ask the boys if it was their love for cheesy handbaghouse and dance, or their obsession with crunchy fucked up electronic sounds that started it all you wont get a straight answer, but maybe a stupid story like this: After taking the aliases as Terminator Kjex and Cheesy, two bored Norwegians spent their lifesavings on a big pile of cheese and biscuits, some studio equipment and locked themselves away for about two years. Creating what would become, "Some But Not All Cheese Comes From the Moon". Their debut album based solely on sounds from yes : cheese & biscuits, added with bits of vocals. The album to their big surprise, awarded them a nomination for best electronica album (Alarm Norwegian Grammy). Digging their way thru piles of breadcrumbs, smelly cheeses and into the light, Ost & Kjex found people liking their music, but nobody really believed in their modus operandi the exclusive use of food as sound source . - So much for that appetite, fuck it ! Since then the food boys has awoken, got their hands on some serious sounds and started shredding out tunes aiming at the dancefloor. They have played at clubs as The Fabric, The Panoramabar, Maria am Ostbahnhof and the Moog club to name a few. Played among artists as diverse as Carl-Heinz Stockhausen, Jackson and his Computer band, Miss Dinky, Magda and Cluster. - So what the hell now ? In 2000&kjex or 2006 things are speeding up. A new 12" "More Songs About Cheese and Revolutionary Tarts" is just out on Dialect records from the land of the Camenbert. The 12" is highlighted in the recent IDJ-mag getting 5 outta 5 points! To follow up there is the "Kjexy Snick Snack! 12" on Punkt Music and "How Not to Be a Biscuit" 12" on Crosstown Rebels. Both to be released in 2006. The latter was recomended in the September issue of MixMag in the Big Tunes section. Among names as Justin Timberlake, Scissor Sisters, Yello and Richardo Villalobos. Not bad for a Cheese and Biscuit! Their love for electronic music still takes the boys wherever the cheese is fresh and the beats are crunchy, from the Reggiano Parmesan factory in Verona to your local waterhole. churning out theatrical performances or fucked-up livesets for the minimal dancefloor. Hastaluego manchego!
