About this episode
Today I am speaking with Kristoffer Lislegaard and Janne Eraker of the duo Øy. Janne is a tap dancer, with contact mics attached to her shoes. Kristoffer receives the audio in his computer running sequencers, synthesizers, drum machines, and Max for Live that all respond to Janne's movements. We had a fascinating conversation about how Øy collaborates and interacts musically for live performances and their new album Live . It was inspiring to learn about these new and exciting ways of creating music on both a technical and creative level. This is also the third time I've had Kristoffer on the show and it was a pleasure to hear how what was an idea last time we spoke has now become a fully realized project. Please welcome Kristoffer and Janne of Øy to the Music Production Podcast.

The psychological aspects of performance can greatly affect the dancer's experience. Recording sessions allows for reflection and discovery of new elements in their work. The use of technology opens up new possibilities for sound manipulation. Human expression is crucial in music, transcending technical limitations. Improvisation thrives on a shared language developed through collaboration. Bringing humanity into electronic music performance is valuable. Engaging with audiences can deepen their appreciation for the performance. Independent artists should focus on building direct connections with their audience.
