Lasse Marhaug

For three decades, Lasse Marhaug has flourished on culture's furthest fringes, contributing to over 300 releases, running various record labels, publishing journals, promoting shows, designing record covers, composing for film, television and theater and producing various installation works. The tireless Norwegian polymath is a bona fide noise legend, and he's collaborated with some of extreme music's most pivotal figures – everyone from Sunn O))) to Merzbow. His last solo album, 'Context', released on the boundless Smalltown Supersound label, betrayed his jaw-dropping control of dynamics, elegantly swaying between loud and quiet, chaos and harmony.
