Studio Barnhus is one of the 13 nominations for the Nordic Council Music Prize 2021.

Rationale:

For over a decade, Kornél Kovács, Axel Boman and Petter Nordkvist have been the most reliable purveyors of quality music on the Swedish club scene. Individually, they have built up their own solid artistry revolving around enthusiasm, innovation and richness of detail. Each has an individual sharpness and creativity with an eye for the future as tireless as their love of house and disco history is clear and deep.

The three producers also form an inseparable unit. As a recording studio, DJ collective and productive record label, they demonstrate in action how a group can be so much more than the sum of its parts. Studio Barnhus shows that the modern ensemble is not hidebound by tradition. How their individual careers merge into a single, powerful unit is representative of ground-breaking musical creativity in a new era.
