About Sinsenfist
Sinsenfist is a colorful crew from different corners of our elongated country, united at the true gateway to the all?consuming hustle and bustle of the "Tiger City": Sinsen! It is here, in the nation’s number one destination for newcomers, that an almost entirely new genre has emerged at the crossroads between gangsta rap and the Norwegian folk-song tradition.
With the albums Fra Sinsenterrassen, Mount Fistmore, and Gangsta Norvegicum under their belt, and cult bangers such as “Finni m? sj?l” and “Ring 3” woven into their singles catalogue, Sinsenfist has built a solid fan base in the capital. In 2023, the band celebrated its ten-year anniversary with the EP Sommeren for ti ?r sia.
The first single from the upcoming album Sinsen fjernvarme is expected in connection with MusicLab: Sinsenfist. RITMO’s own “resident gangsta scholar,” Kjell Andreas Oddekalv, PhD, is the band’s MC and guitarist.
About MusicLab
MusicLab is an innovation project at RITMO and the University Library. Its aim is to explore new methods for research, research dissemination, and teaching. The project is organized around a concert in a public space, which also serves as the object of study. The events also include an edutainment element through panel discussions with leading researchers and artists, as well as “data jockeying” in the form of live analysis of collected data.
