(1999 – present)

Basshunter is a composer of electronic dance music. (commonly EuroDance) He is signed to Warner Records.

Basshunter is the stage name for Jonas Altberg, born in 1984 in Halmstad, Sweden. His 2006 single,

Boten Anna, was #1 in Sweden, the Netherlands and Denmark. His subsequent single “Vi sitter i Ventrilo och spelar dota” has reached as high as #2 in Finland. Altberg has just released his 2006 album, with his 2007 single “I Can Walk On Water I Can Fly”.

He first started to produce music in 1999 with a little help from the computer program “Fruity Studio”. His interest in music from there on grew exponentially. Many of his demos were widely circulated over the internet, and Jonas started to get phone calls from clubs that requested his services as a DJ. In April 2006 he procured his first real music contact, signing a record deal with Warner Music. He soon released his first single

Boten Anna in Scandinavia which became an instant hit.

Jonas now lives in Halmstad, Sweden, with his mother, father and his younger brother. He is a fan of “Defense of the Ancients” (DotA), which is a well known custom map for Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.

The Swedish lyrics of the song “

Boten Anna” tell the story of a female IRC user mistaken for an IRC bot by the vocalist who later finds out the truth; subsequently, however, he states that she will always remain a bot in his eyes.
