Bio: Katrine Stenbekk is a Norwegian vocalist and songwriter based in Oslo, Norway. She grew up near the stormy seaside of Stavanger on the South-West coast of Norway. When she turned nineteen she packed her bags and moved to Liverpool (UK) to study music and find likeminded people. Liverpool was a creative hub where she met musicians, writers and sound-engineers from all parts of the world. It was from these people she gathered her most significant life experiences, which would make an impact on her quest to sustain as a musician and songwriter, and it was here she formed the band Kalandra.Today she’s active writing, producing and performing with Kalandra, as well as writing for- and together with other artists, producers and composers. One could say that those are her two main musical obsessions.What she’s released as a collaborative solo artist in the EDM world is perhaps rather different from the moody soundscape of Kalandra, but she finds that one doesn’t exclude the other, and that the creativity on both ends of the spectrum seem to balance each other out nicely.

Bio: Merging driving synths with dark, neon-streaked imagery equally inspired by vintage cyberpunk, horror, and sleaze, Waves_On_Waves in collaboration with People Theatre (France), Mondmann (Germany), Vortex85 (Italy), STREETEMPTY (Portugal), SHIKIMO (US), Neutron Dreams (US), Katrine Stenbekk (Norway), Let Em Riot (US), Natsukime (France), Crimewave (UK), Pastel Arcade (US), Runaway Droid (Finland), Death By Algorithm (UK), To the Stars We Return (US), Castles Made Of Sky (US), Raydar (Canada), Nebula Black (US), and others present a darkwave masterpiece, “Synthony Of Destruction” - a play off of Megadeath’s 1992 song “Symphony Of Destruction.” The mind altering sonics and phantom overtones throughout Synthony Of Destruction come just in time for Halloween. As if recorded at a post-industrial seance for Nine Inch Nails, Crystal Castle, and Depeche Mode, Waves_On_Waves and his freakishly talented collaborators manage to reinvent heavy metal for the modern ear, breathing life into its corpse. This goth-rock revival fuses high-res electronic noise and pop hooks so effortlessly it can seem accidental. Yet, beneath the dramatic darksynth production and atmospheric electronic elements are real songs with infectious melodies that will grip you to the bone as if by a dead man’s hand, haunt you like a ghost, and take you on a dark and beautiful journey. There are no tricks. Only darkwave treats on Synthony Of Destruction. So for all you freaks and ghouls out there, this one is for you.

lyrics

I didn’t mean to make you disappointed.
I didn’t mean to make you so anointed
But you are everything I’m not.
You are everything I’m not.
And you’re the only thing I’ve got.
You are the only thing I’ve got.
And it's obvious.
So obvious
Yeah it’s obvious
To one of us.

And when the demons take over
Everything that you are
It’s hard to watch.
And the stories you tell yourself
Will stick with you no matter what.
No matter what I say.

I didn’t mean to make you so exalted.
I didn’t mean to make you out to be faultless.
But you are everything I’m not.
You are everything I’m not.
And you’re the only thing I’ve got.
You are the only thing I’ve got.
And it's obvious.
So obvious
Yeah it’s obvious
To one of us.

I’d only want to make you feel empowered
I’m not everything you thought.
You either.
