Butti 49 is now mainly run through Snorre Seim. There are plans for a second album, but the release for this is not yet settled. In the meantime Snorre (and his excellent manager in NY, Anita) has been asking around for people to do free remixes and versions on the "Habit"- tracks. We are interested in any kind of remix and if you think you wanna hav a go - let us know. Thanks to everyone who's gotten in touch with me on this site - it's great to have so much support everytime I log on to myspace.
Takkskaduha!
Bio:
Having attracted plenty of attention from all parts of the world with their remixes and a series of dazzling singles of their own, Norwegian heroes Butti 49 aka Snorre Seim and Oyvind Jakobsen finally released their debut album on exceptional records in late October 2004.
Based in Stavanger, the Butti's have been a main stay of their hometown scene for several years now, with a growing reputation that spread first of all across Norway, and then to many other parts of the world. They have already released a series of well received singles, both on their own imprint, and on a number of other well respected labels such as Guidance and Nuphonic which spread the word even further. In addition, Snorre and Oyvind's services have been much in demand as remixers. Their list of remix credits is extensive - so far they have been in action with such heavyweights as Kyoto Jazz Massive, Nu Spirit Helsinki, Sirius B, and Ennio Morricone to name but a few. And if that's not enough their music has also been featured on numerous compilations including DJ Spinna's Raiding the Crates on Shadow Records, Compost Records, DNM and many more.
Their first full length album features Butti's inimitable and eclectic mix of funk, soul, beats, breaks, electronica and jazz the end result of which is, it has to be said, a very fine album indeed. From the frenzied guitar rythms of Kongo Mongo, to the more atmospheric Alan Accelerates, the 49ers showcase an exciting array of musical flavours. The album manages to pull off that always difficult trick of presenting an appetising variety of musical flavours that all complement each other, and hang together as a cohesive album. Vocal duties on the album are taken care off by a number of guests including Emo - who has already released his own highly acclaimed album on Stereo Deluxe, and Mayia James who was first discovered working as part of Phil Asher's Restless Soul collective. Mayia is of course the vocalist on the first single taken from the album, Incurable.
The whole album is a musical treat from beginning to end. 11 excellent tracks full of new ideas and technical virtuosity which are guaranteed to remain on heavy rotation in your CD player for many months to come.
"HABIT" in some stores and very much on iTunes now!

Hi Butti 49,
Been following you since I heard Kalas on the first Nordic Lounge compilation. Habit is a fantastic album - one of my reference CDs.
Keep it up.
