NORWEGIAN DUO MENTUM TRIGGER UNDERGROUND SYNERGY ACROSS CONTINENTS WITH NEW SINGLE ‘BREATHE’

Norwegian duo Mentum are firmly staking their claim at the forefront of the new wave of electronic talent emerging from the Nordics. Channelling raw emotional undercurrents into a magnetic, high-impact club cut, they launch infatuating new record ‘Breathe’ onto the international circuit.

Built with a DJ’s instinct for pacing, ‘Breathe’ thrives on tension. The groove is tight and deliberate, the low-end sculpted for maximum impact, while crisp, driving percussion pushes the track forward with tunnel-vision focus. “With ‘Breathe,’ we wanted to capture the visceral moment where you let yourself go and the world disappears, triggered by a total connection to someone else,” the duo explains.

Seasoned selectors know the value of the “attitude” record in a DJ set; the one that cuts through the haze and commands attention. Mentum produced ‘Breathe’ with that exact function in mind. “It’s a track born out of that tension between underground emotion and pure, high-energy dance precision. For us, it’s about more than just the drop; it’s about the weightless feeling you get when the music finally takes over.”

Bound together by the aux cord that first brought them together over a chance meeting at a house party in 2014, Tim Terkelsen and Finn Eriksrud are the driving force behind Mentum. An active DJ and producer alliance since 2016, the duo’s innate ability to craft emotive depth and mainstage power with technical precision, instrumental flair, and Finn’s vocal and songwriting talent, has captured the praise attention of industry heavyweights such as The Chainsmokers, R3HAB, and David Guetta.

2026 marks a definitive era for the now decade-long creative partnership Mentum who are intent on sharing their sound with the masses. Pulsating rave anthem‘Antidote,’ in collaboration with Top100 DJ KAAZE, kicked things off as Mentum’s anticipated return to Spinnin’ Records. With the industry’s glare heightened on their next move, Tim and Finn now extend their creative output into LOCO MOTIV recs, the new label of Mentum, which launches at the drop of new single ‘Breathe.’
