Welcome to The Kenneth Bager Experience. A weird and wonderful happy place where Balearic electronica soundtracks scenes of decadence, beautiful women frolic in lacy underwear, white rabbits are regarded as equals and the man conducting the party is dressed as Mozart with his iconic glasses.

Don't be scared, everyone's welcome...
For those who've come across Kenneth in the past, which will be many, none of this will surprise you. Mr. Bager is a man who likes to stand out from the crowd, a man with a vivid imagination and a leader of a whole generation of dancers and music lovers.

Kenneth first appeared in the public eye in the late 80s in his home city of Copenhagen as the organizer of the now legendary 'Coma Club' acid house parties (The first club to introduce the Scandinavians to House music).

Having grown up with music from an early age and been fascinated with the electronic sounds that had developed throughout the 80s, it felt natural for Kenneth to become a DJ and surround his life in dance culture; his life would never be the same again.

Regarded not only as a musical tastemaker but also as a cultural trendsetter, Kenneth quickly became a go-to guy for his thoughts and ideas as well as his musical knowledge.

With the dawn of the 90s and the whole world now tuning into the repetitive rhythms of house music, Kenneth took his next step and launched his own band 'Dr. Baker'.

Discovering his natural ability as a producer and musician, he had his first pan European hit with 'Kaos', a true anthem in 90/91 and later sampled by the likes of MAW, FSOL, The Shamen and David Morales, with Carl Cox listing it in his all time top 10. 


Many more productions and remixes followed (as well as some mad music videos with him lying under an elephant and eating living worms) and as Kenneth's tastemaker status developed so did the size of his post bag, with more and more demos arriving each day.

Kenneth's next career-defining decision was to launch his label (also called Coma) and become A&R to a new age of talented producers coming through in the early-mid 90s. He signed The KLF, The Shamen, Moby and Dance to Trance for the territory of Scandinavia and had a huge run of chart success, helping to shape and influence the careers of all the artists he worked with. Whilst his life had progressed in different directions he always stayed true to his love of partying and DJing, which resulted in the list of top 100 Djs in the world in 1993.

Promoting wilder and more outlandish 'Coma Club' parties, Kenneth was responsible for bringing the likes of Sven Vath, Gotan Project, Todd Terry, Metro Area, Jose Gonzalez, Paul Oakenfold, Norman Jay, Coldcut and The Orb, to name but a few, to Denmark for the first time. His influence on Danish and European club music/culture can never be underestimated. Fast-forward to this decade and Kenneth continues to influence many. Kenneth Bager has been working several times for Denmark's P3 Radio Station (the equivalent of Radio 1 in the UK), since the 80s, throughout the 90's and into the new millennium (again drawing comparisons with UK based Pete Tong and Rob Da Bank).

His main focuses now are producing music, promoting the Coma Club parties (they're still as wild and debauched as they were 20 years ago!), his new club venture called "Home Party", doing his weekly Wednesday 2 hour radio show on Radio Sonica based in Ibiza, his music has been featured in over 25 synchs and commercials, his music has been used in several countries as theme tunes or trailers for TV program the latest being -- Saturday Night prime time show "The Magicians" currently on the airwaves in the UK on BBC 1.

Kenneth is playing a lot in the middle east and running his 'Music For Dreams' label, which is where he originally released the critically acclaimed 'Fragments From A Space Cadet' album. Not only was the release rewarded with global praise and a Grammy nomination in Denmark (with Kenneth performing at the show wearing a mask to make him look 90 years old and accompanied by 200 kids on stage dressed-up as him) but it also showed a natural progression for Kenneth Bager.

Across the-tracks of "Fragments from a Space Cadet" album experience there are numerous highlights, although being a true album that is best served from start to finish, ' The Sound Of Swing part 2', the first single, is a real standout combining Swing, his own childrens choir and the wonderful soulful voice of Aloe Blacc vocals with a timeles melody. Is it the catchiest tune of the year? Probably?
