RELEASE INFORMATION
This spring Zen Feedbacker and Snick Snack Music are proud to present, for the first time the recorded works of legendary Norwegian electronic pioneers Sadomaoistan.
From the depths of Tromsø’s post-punk underground to the neon-drenched euphoria of the early rave scene—Sadomaoistan’s story is one of reinvention, queer rebellion, and raw artistic energy. Now, for the first time, their recorded works are available in a definitive collection that charts their evolution from industrial provocateurs to trailblazers of the Norwegian electronic movement, remastered by Lasse Marhaug.
To celebrate the event Sadomaoistan founder Halvard Haldorsen, Zen Feedbacker and Snick Snack have invited friends and family to remix the original material, resulting in a flurry of activity and contributions from old Norwegian masters like Biosphere, Alexander Rishaug and Tore Honore Bøe. American queer, avant-house and electronica producer The Soft Pink Truth and London’s finest Dale Cornish, are putting an international touch to the series of remixes. Key players in the current Norwegian club scene, like Øyvind Morken, Helene Rickhard and many more have also paid their remixing tributes to Sadomaoistan’s legacy.
The first volume of remixes will be released on Snick Snack Music on May 30. It includes mixes by Snick Snack’s own Trulz&Robin as their techno alias KSMISK, Ost&Kjex, The electro soul of Robomatic, Oslo extraordinaire Øyvind Morken, Swedish disco producer Kuddsnack and Norwegian ‘90s scenester Christian Rot.
