To my great pleasure, I received a new contract for another year of broadcasting on Swedish National Radio with my own program “P3 Remix”. The format was the same. Almost two full hours of mixed music every week. Why change a winning concept? 😉 Here are some selected shows.
Down below is some commercials for the show.

Archive 2001 – Espionage – Sex Education
Also available on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Juno & Beatport
After the success with the last single, Espionage released this follow up single on the same record label as the last one. A funky TB-303 did the lead. This song became a club-hit in UK.
Later that same year, Scooter released their new single “Ramp! (The Logical Song)” and to huge surprise, I found my own melody in their production. Do you think that this was a copy of my melody?
2000 In The Mix
Also on YouTube with all cover/label-art from the records!
Archive 2000 – Espionage – A Revelation
Also available on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Juno & Beatport
A release that Judge Jules played on Radio 1 in UK and Fatboy Slim played a lot. The faithful listener of my productions may recognize the same pattern on my Roland TB-303, previously used in a release with Savastano. You’ll find it in the slightly harder mix called “Trippy Funk Mix”
Archive 2000 – Night Flight – Funk X-Press
Also available on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Juno & Beatport
My contact from England wanted to have a follow-up single to the successful single “Shake It Ip”. The vocal phrase from “Mo Funk” was used again and became “Funk X-Press”.
Archive 2000 – Trafikmagasinet 2000
During the year 2000, I was approached to update the theme music for the show Trafikmagasinet on Swedish National Television. It became the first out of many themes for National Television.
Archive 2000 – Sky Box – The Break
Sky Box was a project made together with Giles Goodman, who also ran the record label Rosenberg Entertainment where this song was released. There is a version we made together, but here is the “Pierre J’s Cut Up Remix” that I did. The fat bass is made on a Roland Juno-106, hardly known for that. This remix was supported by Plump DJs, who also brought it to their mixed compilation “Plump DJs – Urban Underground – The Breakbeat Elite”
Archive 2000 – P3 Remix
This is the show P3 Remix on Swedish National Radio. Around 1000-1500 songs were played throughout the year and besides house and techno, you would also find subgenres as trance, 2-step, progressive, breakbeat, electro, hard house among others. Here is a selection of the shows.
Down below is some commercials for the shows.
1999 In The Mix
Also on YouTube with all cover/label-art from the records!
Archive 1999 – Night Flight – Shake It Up (Remix)
Also available on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Juno & Beatport
In the autumn of 1999, my single “Night Flight – Shake It Up” was released and now a license request from an English record label came. They signed it and wanted to release it when I asked if they wanted a mix as “English-inspired real club music”. Yes, of course. At this time, Olav Basoski was very hot and made house music in 130-133 BPM, that went to crossover to a wide range of DJs. And some stuff even ended up being played by techno DJs or trance DJs. I would now try to do the same, create a sound that would apply to many and the Pierre J’s “Funked Up” Remix was born.
The song was released in England and I can proudly say that the last Carl Cox played last millennium was “Night Flight-Shake It Up”! My song in my new remix, which then goes into a countdown. The place is Sydney in Australia and the mix is ​​also broadcast as “Essential Mix” on BBC Radio 1. Even Judge Jules and Pete Tong play it in their shows and for the first time it seems to me that my stuff does not necessarily have to stop being Swedish local achievements, because I can actually do stuff that even the world-wide DJ stars can and want to play. Record-release number 165 ready!
