About Concrete Nocturne

Concrete Nocturne is the new sonic project of two seasoned musicians, Tarjei Krogh and Ismael Henriksen, with deep roots in the industrial, electronic, and alternative music scenes.

Tarjei draws inspiration from pioneers such as Laibach, D.A.F., Severed Heads, Front 242, Depeche Mode, and Interpol. With a history in bands like Anstalt, Zomorodia, Beta Frequency, and Solar Temple, he was among the early adopters of sampling in electronic music. Known as a true multi-artist, Tarjei moves effortlessly between disciplines, always juggling multiple creative projects at once.

Ismael channels influences from Joy Division/New Order, A-ha, Einstürzende Neubauten, The Sisters of Mercy, Tears for Fears, and Skinny Puppy, among others. His musical career includes projects such as Atropine, Eternal Reward, Solar Temple, and Strict Machine.

Both musicians have been active since their youth, sharing a long-standing passion for art, film, industrial soundscapes, and synth-based explorations. Having collaborated since the late 1990s, their combined vision in Concrete Nocturne merges atmospheric intensity with driving electronics, creating a soundscape that is at once dark, cinematic, and forward-looking.

Sometimes – when I’m not cooking, biking, listening to music or attending concerts, I write stuff for Side-Line.com. Mostly about Norwegian bands, but it’s been some Swedish, English, American, Danish, German and others too… 😉
