very nicely done, Linda, beautiful minimal vibraphone

I love the evolution of sounds you created.

I love the sense of clarity in this, even within such an ambient piece. Amazing work

"The story of Aud the Deep-Minded has been
immensely inspiring to me, this strong Viking woman who showed great courage throughout her life,
through her travels from Norway to Scotland and north to Iceland. My own musical interests seep into
this work, from the droning of the hardanger fiddle in Norwegian folk music, to the restless energy of
Scottish and Irish dance tunes, to field recordings of wind and ice made in rural Iceland. I wish to thank
Katherine Wren for bringing this project to life, and for shining a light on these important historical
figures from the Icelandic sagas - giving new voice to their stories." - Linda Buckley - supported by PRS Foundation Women Make Music

About 200 PIECES:

As part of its Bicentenary celebrations, the Royal Academy of Music embarked on an ambitious project, inviting 200 composers to write 200 new works for solo instrument or voice. The recordings and scores for these works, written for every principal study instrument taught at the Academy, are now available, creating a new library of varied contemporary works by many of the world’s leading composers.

Buckley - Fiach

Co-mixed with @Aasthma.

There are few people who have had as much of an impact on contemporary electronic music as Karin Dreijer, whether with their brother Olof in The Knife or with their solo project, Fever Ray. From massive indie-pop hits to paradigm-shifting dance records, Dreijer's work takes a psychedelic, plasticine approach to synth pop, with their trademark pitch-shifted vocals and psuedo-tropical beats. As Fever Ray, they've tapped into the global club music underground, working with producers like Nídia, Paula Temple, Deena Abdelwahed, Vessel and, on new album Radical Romantics—one of our favourite albums of the year so far at RA, hands down—even Nine Inch Nails.

Other important collaborators in Dreijer's world are Peder Mannerfelt and Pär Grindvik, the Swedish techno producers who have been working with Fever Ray since the first album back in 2009. They co-mixed this RA Podcast. The mix is a survey of Dreijer's favourite dance music, some of which informs their one-of-a-kind sound world as Fever Ray. There's plenty of music from the groundbreaking East African scene centered around Nyege Nyege Tapes, plus DJ Haram, Equinkoxx, Tayhana and more, and even two exclusive, upcoming Fever Ray remixes from Avalon Emerson and Nifra. It's a rare look into the musical tastes of a true visionary.
