AIR BUREAU

Air Bureau is the musical brainchild of Niklas "Sunny Cide" Ehrlin and Henrik "Shiny Shooz" Larsson from Malmö in southern Sweden. Together with Patrik Skoog they started their careers in the hard-hitting techno act Headroom. Headroom was described as "Without doubt one of the most innovative acts in Techno history" in 365 magazine. They went around the world as DJs but felt after a good 50 releases on all the big pioneer techno labels like Loop Records, Planet Rhythm UK, Synewave NY etc that times were a-changin. The Aircrash Bureau was first started as a side project, but soon got all of Niklas and Henriks attention and Patrik continued successfully as a solo artist (Agaric, we are records). Crawling up from the depths of the highly acclaimed debut single "Dont expect me (to forget you)" released on Stockholm records Universal and Skint/ Loaded, Niklas and Henrik decided to let their love for music in general, and funk and house in particular, take over and approach dance music in a more fearless way. Shortening their name to simply Air Bureau marked a new beginning and they started writing songs for an album, launching their own weekly club night Funkyard and sharing their much appreciated DJ sets at various clubs on the globe, from USA to Japan. Niklas was once also co-owner of the local dance music store in Malmö called. Funkyard. The debut artist album "Forever Love" was released in April 2006 and contained collaborations with both The Ark front man Ola Salo and Swedens foremost rapper, Timbuktu. With "Forever Love" and various remixes for Bodyrox, Cassius, Turbofunk, Lisa Millett, The Sounds to name a few; Air Bureau hint at an exciting future steering a course towards a fresh Swedish dance hybrid of Basement Jaxx, Neptunes and Parliament/Funkadelic.
