Armada Music launches ‘In My Opinion’, the brand new label of Norwegian producer/DJ Ørjan Nilsen. The current #32 DJ in the world, as ranked by DJ Mag Top 100, takes a new turn in his career – now embodying the role of label owner and A&R manager.

Though living in a remote Norwegian outpost, that never stopped him from travelling the globe and rocking ten-thousands at several of the infamous A State of Trance events, amongst those in Den Bosch and Ibiza. Playing big festivals such as Tomorrowworld, Tomorrowland, Electric Zoo, Global Gathering, Stereosonic, Creamfields, Electronic Family and more, has introduced his eclectic taste in music to the bigger crowds. Those same crowds will now be pleased to hear the first track of his brand new label – In My Opinion.
Ørjan: ”Finally I have an outlet for all my crazy ideas and equally crazy producer buddies! I’ve been looking forward to this day ever since my first single hit the shelves. A dream come true and by the power invested in me by #TeamOrjan, Armada and every single music fan out there, I’ll do my best to keep our beloved scene innovative, creative and pounding for years to come!
