balErik (Erik Molthe) is based in Oslo, Norway. He started djing late 2000. His vinyl collection rapidly started to grow and about 8 months later he got his first warm-up gig at Oslo’s leading progressive house night, “Odyssey” Where balErik played his trademark sexy, deep, funky house & techno music.

In 2003, balErik started a monthly club night in Oslo, with occational other one off parties being thrown in other Norwegian cities, Dirty Grooves. The night has been a great success and got nominated for best clubnight in a Norwegian online clubbing magazine same year. The year after he also got into promoting another clubnight called Timeslip also a monthly night based in Oslo. The main ideas with both club nights are happy vibes and amazing house music. This night has recently celebrated its second birthday and is still going strong.
