He is also a DJ and also records under the alias of Bozzwell for different labels, including Suicide Recordings, part of the Belgium label Eskimo.
Hiem's music mixes dance, electronica and pop, with a full band when the duo play live. They have remixed The Lovers, Pink Grease and Norweigian Cheese Nutters Ost n Kjex . Hiem have a sizeable following both from the underground dance music scene and also from the more mainstream indie kids. They have recorded live sessions for both Steve Lamacq on BBC Radio 1, and Xfm.
