DJ Christian Flagstad – A Star That Shone Too Briefly. Christian Flagstad was one of the most iconic voices in Danish radio history — a name that still resonates in the hearts of many. As a prominent figure in the 1960s, ’70s, and ’80s, his voice became a symbol of quality, warmth, and musical passion. Flagstad left a lasting mark on Danish culture and will forever be remembered as one of the greats to ever grace the airwaves.
From News Radio to Timeless Classics
Flagstad’s journey as a radio host began in the 1960s, where he became widely known for the popular program Dags Dato. It aired just after the news on P3 and quickly became a daily favorite among both younger and older listeners. His unique gift for storytelling made current events feel personal and engaging — his tone always calm, yet compelling. Shows like Hej P3 and Fanfare cemented his place in broadcasting history. Though only a few recordings have survived, his influence remains strong in the memories of those who listened.
More Than Just a Radio Host
But Flagstad wasn’t only a man behind the mic. He also had a deep love for music. As a DJ, he performed at clubs and private events, bringing the same joy and energy to the dance floor that he was known for on the radio. It was here that Twiggi.dk entered the picture, supplying DJ equipment that helped him continue his musical journey. His collaboration with Twiggi reflected the essence of who he was — versatile, passionate, and dedicated to creating unforgettable moments through music.
Gone Too Soon
Christian Flagstad passed away far too early, on December 25, 1987, at just 51 years old after battling cancer. His death marked the end of a rich and influential career in Danish radio and music. His parting phrase — “Remember, don’t forget to be happy” — became his signature and still echoes in the minds of those who remember his warm and familiar voice.
