Simon Field’s New album celebrates the Underground House Sound of Oslo

Norwegian house artist Simon Field announces the release of his new album ‘Panda’, a 9-track collection of fresh new house tracks drawing inspiration from the Oslo underground scene combined with Simon ́s passion for classic Chicago house. 

Simon Field, a prominent DJ and producer hailing from Oslo, Norway, has made significant strides in the electronic music scene. Known for his signature blend of deep, tech vocal house, Field has amassed over 350 million streams and has released tracks on renowned labels such as Armada, Universal Music, Sony Music Ultra, Perfect Havoc and his own Basement Records.

Field’s journey in music began with a passion for the underground house scene, inspired by pioneers like Frankie Knuckles and Carl Cox. He established Basement Records as a platform for his music, free from commercial constraints, focusing on the raw and unfiltered energy of underground house music. This ethos is also reflected in his Basement Sessions, a club series in Oslo dedicated to celebrating the underground sound.

Recent years have seen Field release a series of impactful tracks and collaborations. His album “Need No Music,” released in late August 2023, includes standout tracks like “WORK!” and “Let This One Ride.” Field’s approach to production involves a meticulous process of testing unreleased material in clubs to gauge audience reactions, ensuring each track resonates on the dancefloor.

The release of Panda marks another significant step in Field’s journey. Across nine distinct, meticulously produced house tracks – including collaborations with Delphi Drive, Blichfedlt and others – Field invites you into his deeply personal yet highly relatable world.  

“I am truly grateful for being able to express myself through music, and seeing people dance and smile to my tracks is a true joy. It makes the countless hours in the studio worthwhile. Two months ago the album was a total of 17 tracks and after back and forth between the studio and club, I landed on nine that I am very happy with.”

In addition to his production work, Simon Field has maintained a rigorous touring schedule, performing at iconic venues and festivals worldwide. Highlights include sets at Café Mambo in Ibiza and Berlin’s Love Parade. Field’s dedication to his craft is evident in his preparation for live performances, where he continuously refines his skills and experiments with new music and visuals.

With Panda landing this summer and residencies in Norway at clubs like Skagum, Jæger, and Natt, he continues to be a driving force in the house scene. His commitment to creating immersive musical experiences ensures that Simon Field remains a vital creator in the world of electronic music.
