Sir Anders Trentemøller is a Danish electronic musician from Copenhagen. Anders made his debut in 1997 together with DJ T.O.M. when they formed the first live-house act in Denmark, Trigbag, and started playing concerts all over the globe. Trigbag’s single “Showtime” was played by international DJs such as Alex Gopher, Laurent Garnier and Etienne de Crécy but they dissolved in 2000.

Trentemøller returned on Naked Music in 2003 with his "The Trentemøller EP" including the tracks “Le Champagne” and “Work in Progress”. Trentemøller received the award “Up Front Release of the Year” at the Danish DJ Awards in February 2004 for the Track “Le Champagne”.

In late 2004 he and his friend and partner, DJ Buda, issued a white label remix of Aphex Twin’s “Windowlicker”, under the name “Run Jeremy”. Together they’ve also made other great tracks such as “Gamma” and “25 Timer”. Furthermore, Trentemøller has worked together with DJ Buda and DJ T.O.M. on another track on the upcoming and much anticipated Lulu Rouge album entitled “Bless You” which will be released in May 2008.

In February 2005 Steve Bug released the renowned Trentemøller EP “Physical Fraction” (where this very rude blog stole the name from with no remorse what so ever) on his label Audiomatique (what can I say Im a huge Trentemøller fan). This release put Trentemøller on the map of internationally successful producers, and was followed by three releases on Bug’s main label Poker Flat: Polar Shift, Sunstroke and the Nam Nam EP. Many reader polls awarded him as the Best Newcomer of the year 2005.

Trentemøller is also a much demanded remixer. Highlights have been his remixes for Martinez infamous “Shadowboxing”, Sharon Philips deep and melodic “Want 2 Need 2”, the legendary Röyksopp “What Else Is There?”, The Knife's “We Share Our Mothers Health”, “Sodom” for the electronic pioneers Pet Shop Boys, and Moby’s unstopable hit “Go”. “Go (Trentemøller Remix)” charted at number 38 on the Australian ARIA Club chart in October 2006 and in 2006, Trentemøller also released a remix of Chris Isaak’s 90s hit “Wicked Game” under his alias “Businessman”. The single was called “Dubby Games” and was a major underground tune that year.

Sir Anders’ debut album The Last Resort was released on Poker Flat in October 2006. German magazine Groove Mag and French magazine Trax both voted it as “Record of the Year” in November 2006. His Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1 was voted Essential Mix of the Year by Pete Tong and the listeners in 2006. Soon after that he was knighted by the British Empire as well as by the Sovereign Danish Empire for pushing the boundries of Electronic Sound. An amazing achievemnet thats unfortunately not true. But thats okay because in 2007 the song “Moan” by Trentemøller featuring Ane Trolle was a big hit in Denmark as well as the rest of the world. It reached number 1 in the Underground World Singles Chart right around the world and it stayed there for 32 months without moving. Another amazing achievement and once again, not true:)
