Trond E. Borgersen a.k.a Sinfour is a 26 year old dj & producer from Larvik, Norway. Got addicted to trance music in 1998 when I heard Forbidden Paradise 7 mixed and compilated by Dj Tiësto. That particular compilation made me start and learning basic mixing with turntables. Got my first gig summer 1999 along with "Klovner I kamp" and "Il Ceasar" in front of 800 peoples.
Started produce music at my own in 1998, but started to play on guitar and piano as a little boy, and I loved it. Started a "cover-band" at age 14 with my friends at school playing "Nirvana", "Rage against the machine" and "Metallica" songs, and soon increased skills in both bass-guitar and keybord. In 1998 I discovered Impulse Tracker and started producing/tracking electronic music. My first ever made track is called "Comet". and it got played at local clubs, and soon after that, many tracks produced but particulary the "Tetris nOise" that was produced in 2000, got aired at national tv channel NRK in 2002 in a demo contest. In 2002 I got a new and better computer and discovered Fruityloops 3.4, and have used this Fruityloops since then, and are now a proud owner of FL 7 Studio. My first international hit was a track called "Lavendel", collabed with Frode K. Nilsen (FKN/Vascotia/Castania), and it got played by many dj's from different countries, such names as Özgür Can, Steve Helstrip, Michael Splint, Giorgio Ponticelli and more. Unfortenly it never got signed but the track got remixed by "Sinful Nature" from USA.

Det må jeg si var hyggelig å høre:D:D Synd du ikke har kontakter der da:/ Noe jeg heller ikke ha i din bransje:P
Ja, du får nok heller takke mamma, som bare gir bort alle barndomslekene uten min tillatelse.. *felle en tåre* neida neida, du kan godt si de trenger dem mer enn meg. Jeg får heller komme bort og stjele noe tilbake om nødvendig;) Håper det falt i smak hos smårollingene:D
Koselig å høre at du likte sacrifice! Har spilt inn to nye versjoner av den nå. Uten datatrommer og sånt piss:P Jeg fikk helt klart et annet bilde av trance ja:) På en positiv måte!
Godt artikkelen falt i smak også! Litt teit at den ble så liten. Trøkt inn på sida, slik at teksten ble mye større enn bildet. jaja, det blei ihvertfall noe ;)
Hello! How things are going? :-) I'm passing by cos I'm really interested in getting your opinion about my new track 'Storm'. If you have listened to my classical trance tunes before, probably you'll be shocked when you hear this new one and, probably, you'll want to kill me for sure :_( I know, maybe... 100% minimal style, no melodies at all, strange noises everywhere... I'm exploring more and more all styles available I can make and this is what I've just finished this time.This is the riskiest song I have made but I think this is the only way to walk some steps ahead in the world of music today :-) You never know if a track is gonna rock on the dancefloors or not so... why not try to make somethind different? :-) Whatever feedback will be welcome, good or bad. I'm ready for you to tell me: What have u done, girl??!! :-P Tons of hugs and thanks for your big help... and reading, as always... ehem :-/
Heisann:) Håper du var fornøyd med artikkelen. Prøvde å vinkle den positivt for dette er da slett ikke dunk-dunk musikk:P Det er jo melodiøst og noe man faktisk kan lytte til=) Lykke til videre med musikken, klem Lone :)
Hello!! Here I go with my usual greeting: How are you? :-) I have sent you this comment cos I want to share my new track with you. It's tittled 'Mystical'. You can download it from megaupload clicking on the pic below :-) If you don't want to download it and only want to take a quick listen, you can hear it in myspace aswel ;-) It's more melodic than my last tune 'On The Groove' so I think trance lovers will enjoy it. Of course, it's not perfect but I'm planing some important changes for my future tunes related with the sound quality :-) I don't know if I'll take some time to upload a new tune after 'Mystical' cos probably I'll have to look for a job this summer so I won't have too much time for music (if I do it, it will be my worst nightmare):_( Anyway, I'm not sure about this yet. As always, if you're interested interested in sending me a feedback about 'Mystical' it will be really welcome. Improving is the most important thing in my life, as you know :-) As always, tons of thanks for your listening, support and for being my friend!! Many hugs from me!! :-)
can You write me where are the best clubs in Norway and places i should visit? i'am going there soon and don't know anything bout any places and Clubs.
Wow, I'm always extremely pleasantly surprised when my favorite producers are so down to earth that they actually connect with their fans! Please don't tell beatport I would have paid like a thousand bucks for a copy of your remix of Avalon! I eagerly await your future productions ... I love you
Hello!! How things are going this time?:-) I'm here cos, first, I want to tell you hi and, second, I want to present you my new track 'On The Groove'. Yes, I know, its tittle reminds to the famous dance tune 'On The Move' by Barthezz (what a time!) but it's no exactly the same. Maybe I can rate this tune as tech-trance but I'm not very sure (you know I'm living a mess with styles now) :_( I just wanted to play with rhythms and groovy basses. You'll not find a serious and uplifting trance tune this time. I don't know if you'll enjoy it cos maybe I've forgot a little bit my usual melodies:-/ Well... no, I have forgot completely all my usual melodies... ehem:-/ I don't know if I'm following the right way making tracks like this. As all producers and djs, I just want people to dance :-) Please, drop some lines about this tune or about... whatever!! You know I love talking a lot (yeah, I know, it's my worst defect... ehem) :-/Many hugs from this heady producer:-P
