reminds me of the last man in the 'fountain' ost.

Awesome tune and melody ! Pretty hypnotizing really

Yes, I have already premiered two tracks this week (see Plïnkï Plønkï and Resina), and yes, this is another premiere of a track, and yet it is immensely needed, wanted, and necessary during these somewhat anxious times. “Rjóður” comes from the Icelandic composer Snorri Hallgrímsson, whom I’ve profiled on many occasions before (see also his In the Studio with… feature), as well as celebrated for his film music, which has been backed by the wonderful Moderna Records (home to many fantastic modern classical and solo piano composers, such as Jacob David, Ed Carlsen, Tim Linghaus, Tambour, and even yours truly). This particular piece appears on Hallgrímsson’s second EP titled Landbrot II – the first having been released last November with five pieces, and now, a year later, with five more. “The collection takes its name from the location of Hallgrímsson’s family cabin in rural Iceland, which he describes as his ‘happy place’. Landbrot translates to erosion or ‘land fractures’, and from this, we can imagine the search for inner calm and acceptance amongst the many obstacles of daily life.”

TRACK PREMIERE : Snorri Hallgrímsson - Rjóður

From The album Ver Sacrum. 
"Spectral and haunting, there’s an almost monastic quality to ‘Sacred Spring’, the first piece to be taken from pianist and composer Bruno Sanfilippo’s forthcoming new album ‘Ver Sacrum’. An air of quiet solitude too; poignant strings wash in and out of focus punctuated by a slow, melancholic organ line. Like all his best work, it’s emotionally resonant yet quietly captivating, a master class in mood and shadow" Derek Robertson, journalist and music writer: Guardian, Independent, NME, VICE, Timeout, The Quietus, The Face.

This is a re-recording of the track "Time changed everything" that can be found on the demo album "Time changed everything".

A few weeks ago I released the same track but without the thunder/rain noises in the background. Since many of you seemed to like it, here's the re-recorded version of this song with all the noises in the background.

I hope you like it! =)

Delicate Power

Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnalds set to release his first Hollywood film score.

Ólafur Arnalds’ original motion picture soundtrack for Sam Levinson’s feature film debut ‘Another Happy Day’, starring Ellen Barkin and Demi Moore, will see a worldwide release via UK modern classical label Erased Tapes Records on February 27, 2012.

PRE-ORDER it on CD/Vinyl/Digital now from: http://erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP038

IN HIS OWN WORDS: 

‘In mid-December 2010 I was on a holiday in China when I received an email from Sam Levinson about the film. We got on the phone at like 4 in the morning Beijing time and ended up talking all through the night, instantly connecting. He told me that they had been listening to my music while making the film, so the film was already very influenced by my music. However, it was not until Ellen Barkin – the beautiful force that she is – had pestered the producers for a week, calling them every day about how I am the right one for this film, that they finally gave in. The only catch was that it had to be done two weeks later, in the first week of January. So I ended up scoring nonstop all throughout Christmas, making my mother mad in the process.’ - Ólafur Arnalds

CONTEXT:

Born in the suburban Icelandic town of Mosfellsbær, a few kilometres outside of Reykjavík, the 24-year old composer has always enjoyed pushing boundaries with both his studio work and his live-shows. Through relentless touring and determination this young artist has steadily gained recognition worldwide and continues his mission to lure an indie-generation of pop and rock fans into an emotive world of beguiling electronic chamber music and delicate classical arrangements.

'The indie kid who knows the score’ – Guardian’s Observer

'An artist who can exert power with the lightest of touches’ – BBC Music

Ólafur Arnalds - Poland

Ninety-Nine Stones is inspired by a story told by Erling Kagge in his book Silence In the Age of Noise. It is a story about ninety-nine scientists based at the South Pole who had seen nothing but snow, ice and man made objects for several months at a time. One year someone smuggled in ninety-nine stones and as a Christmas gift gave each resisdent at the base one stone. Everyone sat holding their stones in quiet reflection feeling the weight of the stone without uttering a word. 

I imagined the jumble of sounds they might each individually be hearing in their heads, sounds from all around the world, where home is and where the pebble took them back to. I wanted to make them all sound at once. 

The solo violin part performed by Marie Schreer.
