Hess Is More

Hess Is More is a Danish group from Copenhagen that began in 2003 as a solo project for musician Mikkel Hess. The project has evolved into a transatlantic ensemble featuring members Nikolaj Hess, Mikkel Hess, Matt Parker, and Michael Demsyn-Hanf, with musicians based across Copenhagen, New York, and Berlin. Over two decades, the group has released 10 albums alongside numerous EPs and singles, establishing collaborations that span ballet productions and art installations.

The group's sound operates across house, deep house, nu disco, and indie dance territories, with releases appearing on Music For Dreams starting in 2024. Their music blends electronic elements with jazz, kraut, pop, and folk influences, creating tracks that work equally in intimate listening environments and dance floor settings. Hess Is More's approach combines organic instrumentation with electronic production, delivering music that ranges from downtempo grooves to more upbeat disco-influenced tracks suitable for both warm-up sets and peak-time moments.
