2025
A year with a lot of self inflicted hard times and pain. A year with plenty of happy moments with people that are worth more than anything else.
Once again Iāve been fortunate to have a year with insane projects, from Australia tours with great artists to record breaking shows, World Cups, Fan zones, TV-shows, E-sports finals, very big artists on very small stages, EDM on the Baltic Sea and many many other projects that helped me grow and continue to learn.
And through all of this Iāve met even more persons that in a short period of time have become lifelong friends and family.
Grateful as ever, thank you. Thereās so so many more that deserve to be tagged in this post, and so many more projects that deserve to be seen, I wish instagram could make an exceptionā¦
And I already have so many fun projects in the pipeline for the coming months, canāt wait to show you guys!
I wish all and every single one of you, a fantastic 2026 with plenty of health and lots of joy ā¤ļø
To have followed along a small part of Hov1s story has been nothing short of incredible.
From the first cue to the last note at GƤrdet, every moment was filled with energy, creativity, and love from both the team and the audience.
A huge thank you to @hov1.se for putting up with me all these years and giving me the possibility to grow.
Shout out to the amazing crew this year, primarily supplied by Creative Technology.
A special thanks to my lampies on tour, Robin & Benjamin!

Itās been an honor to help bring Hov1ās vision to life one last time. Ending it all with such a powerful show on home ground was truly special. We now have the new record for an outdoor show in Stockholm, previously held since 2014, with 52 236 guests!
Grateful, inspired, and proud to have shared this chapter with you all.

So, almost 2 years of silence here..
You canāt get any further away, before you start coming back.
This will be a long one, but bear with me. Or skip it, thatās actually totally up to you.
I remember when I was younger and tried to write a post in English on social media, the backlash was total.āØāWho do you think you are? Some kind of cool globetrotter?āāØāØNow a couple of years later, I still might not be cool but I am, while writing this, flying home from a tour in Australia. That means Iāve been fortunate enough to work in all continents.
This year has been long, with more shows than ever before. It has been many long nights of work and energy drinks drank. But wow, Iāve met great creative minds, people with visions and challenges that has given me so many new ideas. And most importantly Iāve have been so fortunate to be around so many people with the heart in the right place.
And thank you for every single one of you that has endured my endless bantering about the same stupid ideas and still helped me make them a reality in the end.
Believe me, I really understand how privileged I am for have being able to do this. Iām forever grateful for all my experiences. Even if Iāve had to sacrifice a lot to make this happen.
I havenāt been able to keep in touch with everyone as Iāve wished and Iām truly sorry for everything I should have answered quicker. For all the people Iāve let down and havenāt had time for. For all the moments in life that happened and I missed because I was on a flight somewhere.
For all of you that still sticks with me from a distant home, I love you.
Iāll try to not let work be my sole priority next year, and be a bit more present at home.
āØBut itās a bit quiet right now, so if you have a fun project in mind donāt hesitate to to get in touch. Nothing is to small or big of a dream.
Especially if you find a gig in Antarctica, that Iāll do for free. So I actually get all continents š
Good morning, and in case I donāt see you; Good afternoon, good evening, and good night!
TLDR: Thank you, I love you and Iām sorry ā¤ļø
