  • Twice a Man are an electronic music group based in Gothenburg, Sweden, comprising members Dan Söderqvist (born 9 May 1953) and Karl Gasleben (born Ingemar Ljungström; 30 January 1953). Dan and Karl met in Gothenburg during the early 1970s when they played in groups Älgarnas Trädgård and Anna Själv Tredje. The duo was formed in 1978 as Cosmic Overdose. After changing their name to their current title in 1981, Twice a Man released their first album, Music for Girls, in 1982. The group have consistently used synthesizers and electronic effects to create their theatrical and atmospheric soundscapes, and from 1984 they began to work with samplers. The group has featured a variety of musicians in their line up, including long-time collaborator Jocke Söderqvist, who rejoined the group in 2013 for club and festival concerts based around some of their earlier works. They have also written music for theatre (including several works for the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm), television, film and radio. The group also composed the soundtrack to the PlayStation video game, Kula World. In the early 1990s, Twice a Man created a side-project entitled The Butterfly Effect, an experimental electronic project which installed writer Zac O' Yeah as light designer and Peter Davidson as musician and singer, releasing the album Trip in 1991. They later continued as Twice a Man, but during the decade they decreased their production of studio albums and tours to concentrate on project-based work, often in collaboration with theatre, visual artists or companies. Recent works by Twice a Man include the album, Icicles, released in April 2010, as well as a 50 minute ambient CD, Costume Area, which was released to coincide with the opening of a Charles Koroly exhibition at the Dansmuseet museum in Stockholm, for which they provided music and sound design. Their most recent album, On the Other Side of the Mirror, was released in June 2020 in both CD and vinyl editions. (en)

Twice a Man har genomgående arbetat med synthesizers och elektroniska effekter som skapat teatraliska eller stämningsfulla ljudlandskap. Från 1984 arbetar de med samplers. Twice a Man har gett ut ett stort antal album. På 1980-talet växlande mellan poporienterad synthmusik på Works on Yellow (1986) och konceptuella verk som Driftwood (1988). De har dessutom skrivit musik för scen (bland annat flera verk för Dramaten), TV, film, datorspel (exempelvis Kula World 1998) och radio. Under det tidiga nittiotalet skapades sidoprojektet , som utforskade möjligheterna inom techno och ambient. Under nittiotalet övergick de mer från den traditionella arbetsvägen skivinspelning-skivsläpp-turné till att arbeta projektbaserat, ofta i samarbete med teatergrupper, visuella artister eller företag.Gruppen har samarbetat med ett stort antal musiker, och från 2013 är Jocke Söderqvist åter verksam i gruppen.
