Sortna defies musical boundaries and transcends genres to craft a sound that is uniquely captivating. Its name, "Sortna," is inspired by the vivid imagery of Norse mythology's "Völuspá," a poetic masterpiece that foretells the cataclysmic events of Ragnarok, where the sun darkens, reflecting the project's exploration of the dramatic interplay between light and dark.

Rooted in a classical music background, Sortna's compositions seamlessly blend intense, intimidating soundscapes with ethereal, enlightening melodies. With a history of entrancing festival audiences across Scandinavia and in the club scene, Sortna's sonic journey invites you to delve deep into the realms of emotion and sonic boundaries.

Prepare for the unexpected as Sortna continues to push the limits of sonic innovation, forging a path that resonates with the very essence of the human experience.

OFFICIAL BIO
Regarded upon his 2006 arrival as a promising beatmaker looming in the shadows of J Dilla, Madlib, waterfalls and Dabrye, Steven Ellison -- known as Flying Lotus -- nullified all comparisons only two years later with Los Angeles. On that album, his first of five for the Warp label, Ellison distilled a uniquely crisp, spasmodic, and heady sound with elements of hip-hop, avant-garde jazz, IDM, and dubstep. While the abovementioned producers fueled Ellison, he had also been excited as a youngster by the '90s West Coast rap classics that combined programming and live instrumentation. His sound continued to develop as he put his own twist on the approach, recording with a crop of jazz musicians including the indispensable likes of bassist Thundercat and strings master Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. This process began with the turbulent 2010 set Cosmogramma and peaked in terms of acclaim in 2014 with You're Dead!, which crashed the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 and spawned the Kendrick Lamar collaboration "Never Catch Me," a Grammy nominee for Best Dance Recording. Ellison devoted a few years to various forms of film work and the operation of his revered Brainfeeder label, and returned in 2019 with Flamagra, his second consecutive album to top Billboard's Dance/Electronic chart.
