The Incredible Singing DJ

[edit]

Would it be ok to add a few words about his DJing style. I guess singing over the tunes is something he's known for. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.245.170.154 (talk) 20:56, 22 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Gieco Ad Background Music

[edit]

Even though tainted perhaps, by its commercial association, the Geico Insurance ad featuring Øye's song "Remind ME", behind the Caveman riding the moving sidewalk at an airport, resulted in massive exposure. It was a first exposure for many listeners and would seem to deserve mention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.84.249.179 (talk) 15:33, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Los Whitest

[edit]

In South America it appears that The Whitest Boy Alive are his best-known project moreso than Kings Of Convenience, and they get a fair bit of radio play there. The fanbase refers to them as "Los Whitest" so when searching for sources and info regarding this aspect of his career it's probably worth keeping that in mind. May also need to add a new bio section soon under "Mexico" to detail his project with Sebastian Maschat under confinement during the pandemic at a hotel in Mexico for several months; also his release of new material with La Comitiva in 2019 through to 2020 which appears to have become the primary focus of his career over the past decade. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AmbroseCadwell (talkcontribs) 12:37, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
