Bio & Info:
At the age of nine, dj addvibe was exposed to musical flavours like Creole, reggae and afro by his new “father”, as his mother married a man from Cape Verde.
A few years later the young rebel found his salvation in the early days of hip hop, both as a dancer and a dj. Rescued from the streets of Oslo by the Jamaican dj Dennis, who discovered this young talent and took him under his wings. Of the streets, dj addvibe spent his days behind the turntables, practising his mixing skills. After one year of hard work, he took the Norwegian DMC mixing title, making him the Norwegian representative in the world finals, Albert hall London, where he impressed with a sixth place.Never stopped dj’ing, dj addvibe then started to produce funk, disco and jazz inspired house music under various aliases, first on his own Thang records, distributed by peppermint jam, later he signed deals with a Varity of different labels like Beatservice, DFR, Defender and Ten pin.
On the musical project addvibe, Paul Sorli teamed up with Tom Johannsen on guitar and Thor Egil Braseth on keys, this collaboration brought them rave reviews from a wide range of DJs and producers like Harvey, Tom Middleton, Lars Behrenroth, Monte la Rue, Laurent Garnier and Mark Gorbulew. The track “Brothers” was remixed by the masters of NY house Mateo & Matos. The release party for the album “Luv&hapiness” was held at the famous club Cargo in London.
In addition to being a dancer, dj and producer, he hosted radio shows, booked numerous gigs throughout Norway, and even been deeply involved in the well known club concept “Yaz’n” in Tromsø.
Its almost impossible to describe dj addvibes nights, as his background and vast record collection are so varied, but to rephrase his words; I’ll play anything that has inspired my music and dj-sets trough the years, as long as it’s groovy, but one thing is certain, am a insurance man for the funk!
