Mortiis

Musician

Mortiis is the stage name of Norwegian musician Håvard Ellefsen. He was a member of Emperor before developing a solo career known for dark ambient and dungeon synth; later work moved toward neoclassical and industrial/electronic styles.

Reviews on DeBaser note influences from 1970s/80s electronic cosmic artists (Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream) in his early work, mention his debut Ånden som gjorde opprør, and document later shifts toward electro-dark and industrial sounds.

DeBaser hosts several reviews of Mortiis spanning his dark ambient beginnings to later industrial/electronic work. Critics praise atmosphere and evolution, while some dislike his more vocal/electronic turns. The coverage highlights key albums and stylistic phases.

For:Fans of dark ambient, dungeon synth, industrial/electronic music; followers of Mortiis and listeners interested in artist evolution.

 The legendary Mortiis (Håvard Ellefsen) returns, one of the cornerstones of the dark ambient sound from the early '90s Cold Meat Industry school.

 Take a Norwegian with a past in Emperor (genre lovers might correct me: at least I think so), dress him up as a troll, give him electronic music gadgets, and you get Mortiis.
