Music For Dreams

Music For Dreams is a Danish chillout record label founded by Kenneth Bager in 2001. Inspired by Brian Eno's "Music For..." albums, the label has become a sonic kaleidoscope of musical tones and colours. What started as a Record Label has now grown to become a multi-media company encompassing a Publishing Company, Radio Station, Synch, Events & Social Media & D2C outlets.

The label boss, Kenneth Bager, is a legendary figure in the industry who has released records under several aliases such as Dr. Baker, The Kenneth Bager Experience and Kenneth Bager himself. With his deep passion for music from an early age and fascination with electronic sounds, it was only natural for him to become a DJ and musician.

Kenneth Bager is not just another DJ or musician; he stands out from the crowd with his vivid imagination and unique style. He is beloved by dancers and music lovers alike and has become a tastemaker and trendsetter in the cultural scene. His magnificent skill lies in spotting talented artists and carefully handpicking releases for Music For Dreams.

The corner stone of Music For Dreams is its globally appealing sound that spans across genres ranging from danceable balearic beats to beautiful ambient music. Whether you're looking for something to get your feet moving or to relax your mind, Music For Dreams has got you covered.

Danish electronic pop act Hess Is More presents CÆKE. After several orchestral and experimental adventures, Hess Is More is once again back to where it started, as Mikkel Hess’ (more or less) solo venture through the borderlands of pop music.

Gone are the sprawling ensemble works. The sound of CÆKE is minimalist, spacious and mellow. Piano, drum machines and vintage synths assemble a curious DIY space for Hess’ voice to wander… pensive and unhurried, with strange, eccentric poetry.

In honest Hess-ian fashion, the maturity of the sound is offset by a tendency for the childish, the curious… a subversive lightheartedness, which traces back to Hess’ early works. Take the chorus to ‘I Love My Life… Again and Again’, laid above an innocuous drum machine beat: “I Love My Life/I Fuck My Wife/Again and Again”.

The ironies and pleasantries flow into a larger mood of mellow existentialism, with which Hess greets the oncoming seriousness of life as a father. Much has happened since Hess’ began the project in the early 00’s. CÆKE represents a return to the basics, but the basics have changed. Life has changed. The world has changed.

CÆKE is Hess finding the melody of a new life. One that makes room for both seriousness and carefreeness, the introspective and the outward, the living room and the dancefloor.
