Lene 3000

Between landscapes and mountains in Sandnes, something occult and mythic has emerged. Lene 3000, also known as Lene Talgø, is an artist, violinist and producer operating at the intersection of witch house and alternative pop. Within a distinct and aesthetic universe, melodies inspired by 80s new wave meet modern electronic sound design, rooted in her classical background as a violinist. Since May 2025, Lene 3000 has released three singles, and her music has spread rapidly. With over 150 million views across TikTok and Instagram to date, she has been highlighted by artists such as Grimes, Soft Blade, Duran Duran and The Stranglers. She has also received airplay on BBC, as well as radio in both Finland and Denmark. With her debut album expected in 2026, Lene 3000 is establishing herself as an artist in rapid development, with live performances that transform the traditional into something uncompromisingly modern.

Anja Bajer

A Becco favorite, Anja Bajer is an Oslo-based DJ and violinist known for her warm, genre-fluid sets featuring danceable music from around the world. With an intuitive approach to the dancefloor, she builds sets like a journey of discovery, and curates music that explores time, place, and rhythm.
