Smalltown Supersound

<p>Norwegian musician and producer, Deathprod, was born on 26 January 1971. With a career spanning over two decades, he has established himself as a prominent figure in the experimental music scene. Known for his unique soundscapes and innovative use of electronic instruments, Deathprod has captivated audiences worldwide with his haunting compositions. His work combines elements of ambient, drone, and dark ambient genres to create immersive sonic experiences that push the boundaries of traditional music. With numerous critically acclaimed albums under his belt, Deathprod continues to push the limits of sonic exploration and cement his status as a pioneering force in the industry.</p>

An artist with a 30+ year career and an uncompromising reputation that reflects the emotional specificity of his uneasy, yet compelling sound, maintained throughout his expansive discography, Sten was an intriguing choice for such a project. Although he attended art school, training in electronic music and sound art, he had little experience with acoustic instruments and can neither read nor write music notation. Yet he’s been engaged with Partch’s music, and outsider art more generally, since he was a teenager. His resulting piece/composition for the project was originally intended only for performance by Cologne-based Ensemble Musikfabrik, for a series of concerts in five European cities between 2015 and 2018. It’s Musikfabrik that undertook the painstaking, expensive process of building an entire set of the composer’s creations – the second only to the originals built by Partch himself. They are the professional musicians and virtuosic instrumentalists that had to re-train and re-educate on these unknown and experimental sound sculptures in non-standard tunings. And they house this large, gorgeous physical instrumentarium and deal with the enormous logistics of working with it, sometimes shipping the fragile pieces to other locales via semi-trucks or ships.
