Pjusk is an electronic music duo hailing from Norway, known for their creation of atmospheric and ambient soundscapes that capture the essence of the Nordic climate and rugged landscape. The project was formed by Jostein Dahl Gjelsvik and Rune Sagevik, who share a passion for the natural elements and reflect this connection through their immersive auditory experiences. Pjusk's sonic identity is deeply intertwined with the Norwegian wilderness, often featuring experimental textures and minimalist compositions that evoke the serenity and raw power found in these northern territories.

The duo's discography is a testimonial to their evolving artistry which seamlessly blends electronic rhythms with organic sounds. Their recent releases, such as "Svev" and "Sentrifuge," continue to push the boundaries of ambient music, inviting listeners into a world of quiet contemplation and adventure. With a penchant for creating aural journeys, Pjusk's work often features on remixes, exemplified by their reimaginations in pieces like "Open Wall (Pjusk Remix)" and "Insomnia (Pjusk Remix)," which showcase their ability to transform existing compositions with their distinctive touch. Their live performances, such as "Live at Yaga," are lauded for their ability to captivate and transport audiences, solidifying Pjusk's place in the genre's vanguard of artists who can not only produce studio magic but also deliver compelling live experiences.
