sten ove toft - lit de parade
Sten Ove Toft - Lit De Parade – a perfect cross between Lasse Marhaug and
Deathprod
Sten Ove Toft is one of the leading artists in the Norwegian noise scene.
Apart from being an active solo artist, Toft has also validated himself
through such significant projects as Ryfylke, Röyskatt, Waffelpung and
others. He's also worked with Lasse Marhaug, Anders Hana, Stian Westerhus,
Serena Maneesh and The Low Frequency In Stereo. Toft has performed over 200
concerts and has participated in over 50 releases, on labels all over the
world.

Toft's compositions have a brooding, organic feel, like witnessing some
gargantuan organism that heaves slowly and is ready to unleash a world of
darkness on the listener to succumb to. The songs grow to an unnerving
presence either by a monotonous, deafening tone, or through more organic,
pulsating soundscapes, like heavy breathing or a bellow slowly igniting a
soon-to-become raging furnace. As these build ups reach their climax, Toft
dispels the minimalism and revels in shorter spans of crackling and
all-encompassing, sinister noise, richly structured, incorporating found
sounds and samples provided by other key artists on the same scene, such as
the notable Lasse Marhaug.
Lit De Parade is limited to 1000 copies
Genre : Dark Ambient / Noise / Sound Installation
