Lise-Lotte Norelius (b. 1961) -
composer and performer
Professional background
Lise-Lotte Norelius (b. 1961) is a
composer and performer based in Stockholm and active in the
fields of EAM, live electronics and Sound art.
As a performer she works both as solo artist and in various
collaboration projects.
She is one of the founders of the DIY
ensemble Syntjuntan who has got a lot of attention for their
workshops and concerts with textile instruments.
LLN has a long history as
percussionist with great experience from different fields like
traditional african music, experimental rock, free improvised
music and from combining percussion and sampled sounds in the
group Anitas Livs.
She studied electroacoustic
composition at Royal College in Stockholm 1998-2002 and
developed her work with live-electronics and realtime processing
of percussion as well as other sound sources.
Since then, she has composed music
for speakers (EAM), musicians and live-electronics,
installations, theater, poetry and dance performances.
Her penchant for small, pitiful or
ugly sounds, rhythmic structures, layers and long lines
characterize her music, which can be both beautiful, harsh and
brutal. The last years she has been exploring controllable
motors, home made noisy devices, synth jewelry, vacuum cleaners
and floppy drives, usually in combination with her Max/MSP
software, various sensors and effect boxes.
