Deathprod

These days Helge "Deathprod" Steen known from Supersilent
and Motospsycho are releasing a four-disc box with his work
over the last ten years. Expect lots of high quality
droning, noisey ambient. On the label RuneGrammofon. I bet
it's a killer.

Oh. Supersilent. It's more free jazz/impro.

fans of dark ambient had better hear "Morals and Dogma" or
suffer the consequences...review, review...
thick, foggy, sludge to wallow inside

I heard that album in the store and I agree with you.
Unfortunately, the album scares me. It's just too
depressing. Maybe I'll pick it up in a few months or during
the winter.

Supersilent and Helge Steen is great! Respect!

I'd like to add that it's electronic free/improjazz. And
they're (supersilent) more uptempo live, at least when I saw
them at Blæst in Trondheim.

no actually it's quite sweet... and when someone fucking
gets around to hearing it, they'll wonder why the fuck they
didn't take my advice on this one sooner (which is not the
kind of brash statement i would make about a good 85-90% of
my recommendations)

Finally got around to buying this box-set today, in it's
tops. I've been looking around for the Treetop Drive(Second
Disc in this box) album for ages, but I've never found it.
The Treetop Drive 3 is absolutely stunning in a SAW II-ish
style. Highly recommended, and I'll give Supersilent some
props too. Their shows are great.

Helge Sten aka Deathprod is welknown producer. He is the
producer on most of the Rune Grammafon Releases. Great
music! scary artic ambient - stylish!
Actually he is the only "musican" finishing the norwegian
art school. Respect!

That is not correct. Kim Hiorthøy and Alexander Rishaug
from Smalltown are also educated at the Art Academy here in
Trondheim.

Vlari: Does Treetop Drive in the box have the original (and
very cool) artwork?

Nope, just plain black digipak with a small graphic element
in grey for all the cds. It's a shame they didn't reproduce
the original artwork, cause that was beautiful. And now I
regret not buying it when i had the chance even more... But
I guess it stands more as a whole with the current design.

I should really like this stuff but I don't.

And Treetop Drive is awful.

I guess I'll have to listen to Morals and Dogma
again..

A shame you don't like it.
I had Treetop Drive in my walkman one day at school ( in 96,
if my memory serves me right), and one girl in my class
asked me what I was listening to. Instead of going into a
lengthy explanation I handed over the headphones, and after
ten seconds they were tossed back at me. She said she
couldn't listen to it cause it sounded like bees having sex.
So if you want, darius, I can hook you up with her...

Haha, great.

I usually like abstract music or whatever, but I
thought this just wasn't interesting at all. Unpleasant
sounds with a lot of reverb, meh.

i was for some reason surprised by how good this is. i was
expecting good ambientness, but a lot of this is so well
crafted and powerful it's silly. from the press mathing:

"Layers thicken, some congeal and sink as others thin and
evaporate in glistening spray. Figures stalk through
clouds; strange topographies form from molten matter then
dissolve in crystalline streams; curious stories in remote
languages cry out to be deciphered."


which is particularly true of tracks like towboat and all of
morals and dogma, recommended A++.

mortsto-x: i know that kim hiorthøy is educated on same
school, but in design not in music.
I didnt know Rishaug was a student at trondheim art
school... H. Sten was anyway the first musican educated on
trondheim art school...
Rishaug is great btw;)

ive been wondering for a long time if i should pick this up.
is this really dark? like lustmord? i listen to a lot of
ambient at work but more like hecker or stuff thats not so
oppressive.


 

offline mrgypsum on 2009-04-08 21:14 [#02284999]
Points: 5103 Status: Lurker



not oppressive at all its actually very varied in its style,
the 4 discs are very different, would say that this is not
like lustmord at all

It's melancholic and deep, somewhat harsh in feelings, not
in attitude, not oppressive. I like it very much and I play
it when I feel sad. It's a beautiful blacknuanced box by the
way.

I love Deathprod and the RG label. Dead Peoples Things is
such a great track.
