About Me

Taphephobia is a ghostly experimental dark ambient project that I started in the autumn 2004 after leaving the project Northaunt. I finished my first CD "House of Memories" in the summer of 2005. After that I started to work on the next cd. I started to use guitar as a main instrument and the music became more melodic, complex and melancholic. The result is the cd "Anomie" that was finished May 2006. Signed a deal with the Belgian label NOTHingness records June 2006 for the releases "House of memories and "Anomie". NOTHingness records released "house of memories" 14 of May, 2007. Now I`m soon finished with the 3rd cd. It`s still very guitar-dominated as "Anomie", and the music is now more like landscape-music than in the past. The working title is at the moment "Death is just a heartbeat away". Not sure if that`s going to be the album title yet. Taphephobia also worked on a split cd with the French dark ambient project Abandoned Place. The 3 songs I made for the split was finished in April.Ketil - May - 2007
