Supersilent is a groundbreaking experimental music group consisting of trumpeter *Arve Henriksen*, tape experimenter *Helge Sten* (aka Deathprod), and keyboardist *Ståle Storløkken*. Previously, drummer Jarle Vespestad was also part of the band. The band was formed by former members of another influential group.

With their unique blend of improvisation, electronic manipulation, and avant-garde soundscapes, Supersilent has carved out a distinct niche in the music world. Their mesmerizing performances have earned them a dedicated following and critical acclaim.

Influenced by artists such as *The Necks*, *Deathprod*, and *David Toop*, Supersilent pushes the boundaries of traditional musical genres. Their compositions are characterized by atmospheric textures, haunting melodies, and unexpected sonic landscapes.

supersilent celebrate 10 years as a groundbreaking quartet with their first studio album in almost 5 years. the album has been mastered by us mastering guru bob katz in close collaboration with producer deathprod, and its been handled almost like classical music to keep the extremely dynamic range of the original recording. again, the names of the players do not appear on the cover. this is supersilent music, collective work, group improvising, and not a matter of individual grandstanding. supersilent music lives in a no-man's-land between the genres, somewhere between rock, electronica, jazz and modern composition. it can sometimes appear to be written or at least arranged, again making it clear that these musicians communicate on a high, almost telepathic level. needless to say, there are no overdubs.
