Brynjar Daðason – Pretty Late

Benedikt Reynisson — Tue, 02 May 2023 11:04:29 +0000

Pretty Late was recorded over one year, although the compositions on the album have a longer history. With the nostalgic feelings that follows becoming an adult, the songs have deep meaning and memories for the young composer. The material is recorded at Sundlaugin (the infamous studio built by Sigur Rós in the 2000s) and Mengi (a legendary arts and experimental venue in central Reykjavík) who are also releasing the album.

Páll Ivan Frá Eiðum – This is my shit LP

Winner of Kraumur Music Awards for one of the 6 best albums of the year 2016

This Is My Shit is a diverse collection of home recordings that spans a range of styles, from bassy trap to lo-fi rock ‘n’ roll, perky chiptunes, a bizarre synthetic medieval folk sound, and more besides. From song to song, the aesthetic template is continually ripped up and started again, in a manner reminiscent of ongoing aesthetic self-immolation.

This is My Shit hlaut Kraumsverðlaunin árið 2016 fyrir eina af sex bestu plötum ársins.

Ómótstæðileg poppplata frá þúsundþjalasmiðnum Páli Ivani frá Eiðum sem sló í gegn löngu áður en hún kom út. Platan This is my Shit er fyrsta breiðskífa hans og inniheldur 14 lög af öllum gerðum. Nauðsynleg í safnið.
