Danish singer-songwriter, producer and artist Absalon Rieper blends underground sounds with catchy pop melodies. His silky electronic productions draw on R&B, dance-pop, indietronica and ambient, creating an atmospheric, sensual and deeply personal sound. Beneath the glossy surface, the songs often carry a more longing and melancholic undertone, especially in the lyrics.
Since releasing his first EP in 2024, he has performed live across Copenhagen as both a live act and a DJ, with gripping shows built on heavy beats, ethereal soundscapes and an intimate vocal. Rieper is also due to perform at Rust on 13 January 2027, so this is a chance to catch him again shortly after.
