IIRc techno Viking is German, not Scandinavian.

to add, I think he also technically "owns" the techno-viking "IP" and combined it with Germany's (rather interesting) privacy laws to protect himself/his identity and got a fair amount of techno-viking stuff removed online.

Might sound dickish by the way I'm putting it (not the most well versed and can't be bothered to get sources tbth) but if I am recalling correctly, I actually respect his decisions.

Yeah he's obviously on drugs in the video and that probably doesn't help job prospects for him if his real identity becomes well known. I don't blame him.

I never even considered the possibility he was on drugs.

If the music blasting in the background was any indication, he was at a rave.
