About this event
O’Hoi! The Sunkissed crew come to port after a day of bobbing on the waves of beats out at sea. The whole sirkus float into the back yard to continue the party. The annual party kicks off with g-HA & Olanskii at the helm and features the whole crew. From yachtrock to sunkissed balearic sounds, they’ll play well passed the dusk of the late night sun. Meanwhile down below… MC Kaman and DJ2Chaos twins play the guilty pleasures from the basement.

In 2011 Olanskii opened Jaeger in Oslo, that quickly establishing the two floors club, bar and café as a premier spot for electronic and black music in Oslo. Jaeger is kitted with Funktion-One sound throughout, including one fierce dj booth in the basement, and sports a general love for odd details, elements of Berlin, and Western Norway's historic anglophilia.
