På Slaget 12 (also known as PS12) is a Danish pop and rock band which mainly consists of singer Ann-Mette Elten and guitarist Niels Kirkegård. På Slaget 12 was formed as a band in 1984 under the name Kvartalsband af Elten, Kirkegård, keyboardspiller Søren Møller, bassist Mogens Lodahl, og trommeslager Mats Madsen (English: Quarter band by Elten, Kirkegård, keyboardist Søren Møller, bassist Mogens Lodahl, and drummer Mats Madsen). The band published their debut album in 1986 in which the song Hjem til Århus became a major hit.^[1]^[2]
