Fjerstad

<a href="spotify:artist:0ZiyrUUyaafsiHT3Q3MF2k" data-name="Chad Fjerstad">Chad Fjerstad</a> has made a name for himself as a purveyor of synthesizer-based compositions, between his synth-pop explorations in <a href="spotify:artist:5LpIWpin0W0CNONbuNLxNw" data-name="More Ephemerol">More Ephemerol</a>, his cinematic companion pieces such as the <a href="spotify:album:48qDv2aOorpzEzDQgbBAjL" data-name="Dark Cloud (Original Motion Picture Score)">Dark Cloud (Original Motion Picture Score)</a>, and his electronica works under his surname. While also serving as one of two front-persons in the whimsical prog rock trio <a href="spotify:artist:1ITxODStmyLSXovbtas448" data-name="K&#39;mono">K&#39;mono</a>, and fulfilling duties as the bassist of a wide array of aggressive bands such as <a href="spotify:artist:0NP6XBVOCzcfpEjpnaU9Ew" data-name="Ass Life">Ass Life</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3PVkIZw7qscMlM4LaNi09z" data-name="The Primals">The Primals</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6OitwrCtnZ6Uqads3EB12B" data-name="Nehemiah">Nehemiah</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4fJhgb2uzeQZUtUUVqQLX3" data-name="Dead To Fall">Dead To Fall</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0L9DzGxpz3Pn5cOk3VzkMr" data-name="VR SEX">VR SEX</a>, and more, Fjerstad keeps his plate full and gives listeners plenty to explore.

Qrewcial Media named the debut LP, <a href="spotify:album:7FyzQYJupW0FbNEzNVYu3x" data-name="8-Circuit Neurorgasmic Trigger">8-Circuit Neurorgasmic Trigger</a>, one of &#34;10 great albums you may have missed&#34; in 2019, stating &#34;Chad Fjerstad’s debut full-length is 50 minutes of high-octane, gleefully misanthropic IDM. His hothouse-slasher, kitchen-sink approach to composition makes for an overwhelming and dizzying—but always entertaining—sonic experience. It’s a vicious electronic head-trip rife with rough textures, grim erotica, belching machinery and a truly warped sense of humor. You’ll find yourself having a killer time even as the carnage unfolds before you.&#34;
