Somates presents: Fahlberg, Orsay

Solmates brings together two European producers whose work meets at the intersection of melody, groove, and late-night dance music. Stockholm-born Fahlberg has built his sound around deep basslines, hypnotic textures, and what he describes as “Nordic Melodic” — a Scandinavian sense of atmosphere shaped through contemporary house and techno. His releases have appeared on labels including Diynamic, Watergate, Siamese, MoBlack, and When Stars Align, with support from Solomun, Keinemusik, Black Coffee, and Pete Tong. Tracks such as “Somebody” and “Chaka” have reached major Beatport chart positions, while recent work includes collaborations with Layer J, Argødes, and Jeremy Olander, as well as an official remix for RÜFÜS DU SOL. Joining him is Paris- and London-based Orsay, a producer whose melodic house sound is informed by an early classical background. Having studied piano from the age of six and trained at a music conservatory, Orsay brings that foundation into productions built around rhythm, emotion, and melody. His music has been released through Ninja Tune, Siamese, Universal Music, and Kitsuné, with tracks including “Mind Off,” “Amado,” and “Magik” receiving support from Adriatique, Solomun, WhoMadeWho, Carlita, and RÜFÜS DU SOL. In 2025, he took his sets across Europe, the UAE, and South America.
