oskar med k

Oskar med K (Oscar with a K) might sound a little… ordinary. Like the name of a guy who got his nickname because Oscar with a C was a bit more popular. Not exactly a name you expect to see on international playlists. But there is nothing ordinary about 11 million monthly listeners and 140 million streams on a single track. That is how many plays Make Me Feel has racked up on Spotify at the time of writing. Behind the track is a 26-year-old producer who began his wild come-up by sketching out beats in GarageBand on his iPad after piano lessons growing up. Now he suddenly finds himself getting messages from superstars.

One of them was Khalid, who wanted his own version of the song (“Nobody (Make Me Feel)”). Other artists Oskar med K has collaborated with include Billie Eilish, Halsey and Benny Blanco. When those kinds of names start calling, you have officially moved far beyond “no, the other Oskar.”

The website edm.com calls him Norway’s next house-music star. It is hard not to ask the obvious question: Is Oskar med K the new Kygo or Alan Walker? His sound certainly shares clear DNA with the Bergen-born house kings. Chill, melodic, feel-good house meets club-ready beats and melodies that lodge themselves in your head instantly.

Oskar med K may not sound like a superstar. But you would be wise not to rule out that this is exactly what he is on his way to becoming
