maenske is Danish groove-pop, expressing deeply processed feelings through poetry, with the broad brush strokes of philosophical introspection.
Thomas Tornvig is the artist behind maenske, who since 2016 has been working on finding the sound and identity most in tune with his work as a musician. The result of this labor is maenske, a project which took its first steps in the summer of 2022.
Thoughts of impermanence and never ending feelings of longing are subjects in the lyrics. maenske is the sound of ambivalence, struggle and the belief that through each other, we can experience timeless existence. Combined with the artist’s 80s-inspired soundscapes of grooves and synthesizers, the show will fill you with ecstasy and a sensation of being in a trance. Just for a moment. You will return home with a feeling of being understood as the human being (maenske/menneske) you are.
