Do you play in a band or work as a live artist?

If you do, you probably know how quickly things can get messy. Show dates, booking emails, contracts, riders, gear lists, travel details, payments… there’s a lot to keep track of when you’re constantly playing live.

As a musician myself, I’ve experienced this firsthand. That’s why I built HUGIN — a tool made specifically for bands and live artists to keep all that information in one place.

HUGIN helps you organize your shows, manage your gear, keep track of important files and booking information, and get a clear overview of what’s coming up. The goal is: less time spent digging through emails and trying to remember where you put something, and more time focusing on the music.

I built HUGIN because it’s something I genuinely wished we had ourselves.

If you’re in a band or work as a live artist, check out HUGIN and see if it can make your life on the road a little easier.

About

Why Roken Labs?

Bio

Roken comes from a nickname one of my band members in Fight The Fight gave me, and from that day I have been Roken

Labs represents the experimental side of my approach to guitar tone: testing, refining, and pushing sounds until they feel right.

Roken Labs exists because so many people have asked how I achieve my tones. This platform is my way of sharing that knowledge — starting with guitar tones and presets, and expanding from there.

I’m a guitarist and musician based in Norway, active in the bands Fight The Fight and Tellus. I’ve been involved in music since 2009 and have played in several bands across different projects over the years.

My playing and sound are heavily tone-focused, and I regularly share performance and tone-related content on Instagram.

I’m proud to be endorsed by  EVA Pickups, Hantek Audio, and Templeboards.

If you’re here for tones, inspiration, or insight into my approach to guitar sound, you’re in the right place.
