👌 New Indie as selected by Hybris

Release Date: April 8th

Soft spoken, sullen, yet in an abundance of emotion, Icelandic-native Ragnar Ægir’s latest single ‘Not Too Loud’ sets out to reflect on the past, present and future state of his marriage. Bittersweet piano lines, dreamy guitar chords drift atop a bedrock foundation of in-the-pocket drums, carrying Ragnar’s floaty vocals through a dynamic dreamy pop affair.

It circles around themes of love and lust, commenting about the fragility of marriage, and the questionable notion of “till death do us part”. Despite how much we may hope for it, there is never any guarantee that anything in life could work out in perpetuity. Those guarantees are ultimately bound with fate.

“The line Bring me to, all of you, is a reference to the fact that when accepting and loving someone like they are, you have to take all of it - the good and the bad. There is no secret formula that keeps relationships going. In the case of me and my wife I think we are bound together by fate, but we have also accepted each other’s quirks.”

Not Too Loud

Cinematic-pop music maestro, Ragnar Ægir, returns with a brand new single that demonstrates his profound connection to Icelandic nature.

The track opens without a moment’s hesitation -- cascading melodic synths, jangly guitars and a pulsing rock groove propels the track into the beginning of an emotive sonic escapade. Complete with dynamic peaks and valleys that mirror the Land of Fire And Ice, Ragnar’s ability to transport listeners somewhere else can’t be understated.

For Ragnar, the track serves as a homage to his Icelandic heritage; and embracing that liberating feeling of coming home after long periods overseas.

“Landing at an airport and knowing you have a 5-hour drive to get home isn’t everyone’s idea of fun. But getting to see all these amazing places on the drive back through Iceland is an incredibly refreshing feeling, and gives me and my family a newfound energy and inspiration”. - Ragnar Ægir

I’m At Home premieres this summer, and is the first single and title track off Ragnar’s forthcoming debut EP, which will be released on Raun Music at the end of 2021. The track is also accompanied by a music video that showcases the natural beauty of Iceland, shot by digital creator Ása Steinars.
