Say Ja. to great Norwegian Music!
Ja. – That is both our logo, and the Norwegian word for «Yes». In the beginning we thought it was quite clever, but over the years we’ve seen more people scratching their heads looking at this slogan, than actually nodding in quiet affirmation. But hey, we’re sticking to it. Say yes to great Norwegian music.
Jansen Records was started by Erik Jansen in 2009, and today it is run by him and his two friends and colleagues, Maria, Andreas and Eivind. With a common background from working in different record stores in Oslo, and collecting all sorts of records, our musical bond is quite strong.
Which we think the roster at Jansen shows. The mix of genres run from psychedelic rock, via indie pop to americana and country. We even hang with the metal crowd once in a while. The selection might seem quite eclectic looking at it from the outside, and that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be.
But wait, there’s more. Tightly connected to the Jansen organization, is our friends and sub labels Die With Your Boots On Records (fuzzy folk and Nordic americana), Black Pop Records (garage rock and punk rock on 7-inches) and 9AM Records (up and coming pop music).
Welcome into the Jansen universe, hope you’ll stay forever.
