Petter “Katastrofe“ Kristiansen

Petter Kristiansen was one of Norway’s largest pop acts of the 2000s when he decided to retire at the age of 30, to solely focus his work on songwriting and producing. 

As an artist, Katastrofe clocked in 10 top20 singles in his native Norway from 2014 to 2020, staying in the charts for 102 weeks in total, and reaching #1 with “Sangen Du Hater” in 2016. He also co-wrote and featured on Marcus & Martinus’ pan-nordic smash “Elektrisk” that also hit top10 on the Swedish single chart. 

As a writer, Kristiansen has exceeded more than 350 million streams in total. His ability to create exceptional Scandi-melodies and captivating toplines har led to nominations for 2x “Song Of The Year” at the Norwegian Spellemann - “Elektrisk” in 2015 and “Sommerkroppen”, which won the award in 2018. His song “Den fineste Chevy’n” also became the most streamed local song on Spotify in Norway in 2021.

Kristiansen launched his label All In & GG Music in 2018, a single release focused label venture co-founded with Stian “Staysman” Thorbjørnsen, distributed by Sony Music. In their first year All In & GG Music broke the Norwegian one day streaming record twice, and clocked in two #1 singles.
