As a live artist and DJ, Patrik Eriksson's work as Dold often explores the evolving landscape of dance music with one eye sharply focused on its truest forms. Hailing from Stockholm, Eriksson built up his reputation alongside live performance partner Kuf. The pair set up Arsenik Records in 2015, creating a vital platform to develop their vision of 21st-century techno on their own terms. Now over 20 releases deep the label has flourished to showcase the work of like-minded, established and emergent producers. Led to new opportunities appearing on some of the most respected labels around, including regular collaboration with Blue Hour and outings on KEY, Token and Fabric as well as Live and DJ performances across Europe. Positioned at the forefront of the European techno scene, Dold combines his timeless machine music across a wide range and cross-pollination of sub-genres. While the linear thrust of 4/4 techno is the foundation of Dold’s sound, his recorded work and live sets equally encompass ambient, IDM, breakbeat and electro but never fail to deliver consistency with inviting character and charm.
