BARN 028EP
|
Swedish house hero Tiger Stripes steps into the Barnhus with "Twilight," a high-octane destroyer of clubs loaded with thunderous drums and shadowy yet sweet organ melodies. The dub version strips the track right down while adding some extra crash 'n' boom before Studio Barnhus comrade HNNY closes things out with a slow-swingin' spook story recorded straight to cassette.

DESOLAT 036EP
|
Tiger Stripes has released records on labels such as Ibadan, Get Physical, liebe*detail, Drumcode, and Strictly Rhythm. Now the Swedish artist makes his long-awaited debut on Desolat with the Sisters EP. The title-track kicks things off with a bumping bass line, strong percussion and a distinctive vocal that is sure to be one of the most memorable hooks of the year. "Keep a Movin'" is a hypnotic, rolling house track full of energy but with a darker vibe and an equally engrossing vocal. On remix duties, tINI takes out much of the vocal, slowing the BPM and infusing a woozy, meandering bass line with the original melody.

AM 047EP
|
Tiger Stripes returns to Audiomatique with a funky little number. Going by the name of Glorified, this return to the dancefloor is cutting-edge tech-house and techno. "Glorified' opens with a tight, swinging groove. As we are quickly drawn into the snaking arrangement, an uplifting speech arrives from a preacher from the House of Jack. Rodriguez Junior lends his hand on the remix, drawing out the introduction and adding tension. Pushing drums lead a pitching, super-stereo chord pattern, evolving into an early morning anthem.

|
Swedish DJ/producer Mikael Nordgren aka Tiger Stripes presents the Blackroom Entertainment EP, showcasing his ability as a formidable contributor to house music.

"Abacus" is analog in approach with springing tones, a cabal of sci-fi sounds, and thick, modulated analog bass that ups the overall energy. Only a seasoned DJ and knowledgeable producer could fabricate such a convincing theme.

GPM 081EP
|
Tiger Stripes is Mikael Nordgren, one of the most respected names in modern house music. Mad At Me combines classic sounds while exploring dancefloor music's outer limits and new production techniques. Stand-out track "Mad At Me" attacks the listener with a sinister one-note bass line as interlocking percussion patterns skitter across the surface. Blaring effects and edits provide the perfect counterpoint to the track's linear groove. A powerful three-track condensation of Mikael's retro influences and futurist ambitions.
