Cinematic electronica, from Bergen, Norway, composed and produced by Magnus Gangstad.

London-based Norwegian artist and producer Mörmaid is a constantly exploring figure in the electronic music underground scene and has proven herself to be an unstoppable creative force in the fields between electronic and vocal experimentation mixed with dancy dream pop. Coupled with a strong sense of rhythmic energy and harmonic drive, DJ-like transitions and personal lyrics, her music is as hypnotic as it is energizing. Her debut single «Turn Away» was released 3rd July on Siren Song Records. She can also be heard in projects such as Ben Alexander, Jenny Alien, Tobi Duchampe and Brand New Moon.

Ratkje has received awards such as the International Rostrum of Composers in Paris for composers below 30 years of age, the Norwegian Edvard prize (work of the year) twice, second prize at the Russolo Foundation, and in 2001 she was the first composer ever to receive the Norwegian Arne Nordheim prize. Her solo album «Voice», made in collaboration with Jazzkammer, got a Distinction Award at Prix Ars Electronica in 2003.
