A few weeks ago I suggested some tracks for American Express to feature on their pages, and they’ve come up with a really quite brilliant playlist of emerging Scandinavian artists.
Best of all, it’s all free to download, and features some of my absolute favourites like Johan Reinhold and Fallulah!
Very well crafter Icelandic indie. They’re actually not new at all- they’ve been around since 1999 if Wikipedia is to be believed, but this is a very current track. And, well, it’s never too late… Check out here.
It’s Wednesday, and its half way through my holiday and I feel like I haven’t even started my break yet, which sucks. But anyway, this Icelandic chap has an infectiously happy sound that is already very popular in his homeland. This little song that should shake any midweek blues away. Check out here.
I mentioned Mr Fogg on here ages ago for an amazing little videohe made in the middle of London. Last year he released his debut album, also entitled ‘Moving Parts’, and is currently working on new material with Icelandic producer Valgeir Sigurdsson (Bjork and Feist), this video marks a stepping stone between his debut and new music set for release later this year.
The video was directed by American History X director, Tony Kaye and was shot at various locations around Los Angeles, including Walt Disney Concert Hall, and consists entirely of several thousand stop-animated still photographs.
