DINNER

Dinner is alias for the Danish producer Anders Rhedin.

This past year has been busy for him. Dinner released 2 EPs on Tigerspring/ Looking Forward, played festivals and galleries in Europe and the US, had his heart broken by a baroness in Berlin, was taught the art of Qi Gong on a mountainside in the Algarve by a renowned Sifu, partied in Lichtenstein, and has been working on a new EP.

The new Dinner EP – OUI! EP – will be out digitally and on vinyl in the US and Europe on SEPTEMBER 12th on Red Eye Transit Records and Looking Forward.

This is what Dinner looks and sounds like, according to filmmaker Andrew Van Baal:

“Admittedly, Dinner’s physical appearance seems like quite the North-European cliché: he’s thin, blue-eyed, polite and speaks with an accent that sounds like something in between a villain from a WWII-movie and Swedish aristocracy.

His music definitely calls on Euro-references as well. Icy traces of Joy Division and echoes of Nico-ish phrasing come together in wobbly pop-songs.

But underneath Dinner’s apparently cold surface there’s an uncanny warmth. Like a warm
summer-night where something is about to go terribly wrong.”

Here is what Dinner's music sounds like according to Kim LAS (Menthol) and Thomas Wiggers (Cejero
Records):

"…an unruly dream immersed in sexual exhibitionism, un-dogmatic New Age, and perfectly measured
idiocy combined with schwung and stadion-sized pop hooks.”

“…the sound of a retarded dude who has been accumulating all musical impressions from 1979 up until today and melted it all into an all wrong, but just right, new Robocop”.

EUROPEAN PRESS QUOTES:

“Dinner (yes, there’s now a band called Dinner… finally) is amazing. Braindead karaoke with GarageBand Erasure efforts.”

-Sam Breen – The Independent

”Dinner is still a fairly unknown musician from Copenhagen, and his songs are just as exceptional as you would imagine from his looks"

-Noisey/Vice

”Wunderschön”

-Interview Magazine (Music Video of the Week)

 “With a sonorous bass, he sings that they know the best about “Girls, destruction and
divine feminism,” women were his greatest source of inspiration! A sound
collage electronically then wafting as if you turned broad indie-rock with ’80s
pop wavigem through a meat grinder and a melodramatic fried meatball it.
Delicious tasters.Simultaneously hot and damn cool! Summer music!”

-Volume Magazine (100,000 copies)

 “Get on your knees and pray to Dinner.”

-nothingbuthopeandpassion

 “Danish artist Anders Rhedin, who’s at the heart of new project Dinner, sounds exactly like the Hybrid between Southern California’s weirdo underground pop scene and the bright and shiny tones of
Scandinavian glory did you’ve always been waiting for. “
