A one-man power-electronics/industrial noise project
from Reykjavík, Iceland. A powerful wall of sound under
heavily distorted vocals. Rhythmic, loud, and aggressive.

BIO:
After working in numerous metal and experimental projects, Aðalsteinn Jörundsson decided
in the summer of 2008 to pair a selection of his poetry with his experimental noise sounds to
create a new project, AMFJ. By the end of that year he had already made his mark on nearly
every Reykjavík venue, raising hell and wreaking havoc along the way.
AMFJ's inaugural cassette, Itemhljóð & Veinan, was released on FALK (an artist run
label/art society) in May 2009 and was produced by Jóhann Fr. Jóhannsson (7oi). The
release gained some media attention, mainly through The Reykjavík Grapevine, a local
English-language magazine, which wrote of the offering “There’s a point where art-music
becomes almost transcendentally self-indulgent and that is the point at which it also becomes
magnificent.” Florian Zhulke, a music writer for The Grapevine, also listed the cassette among
his top 5 Icelandic releases of 2009 in a year-end review.
Over the course of 2010 AMFJ sporadically released The Modern AMFJ Compendium of
New Musics for Headphone Listening Single Series, which, as the title implies, is a series
of mp3 singles that were composed to be enjoyed strictly via headphones to reach a hypnotic
state, and to modify the perception of ones surroundings by altering the listeners audio
experience. It went critically unnoticed, mainly because the tracks were released online
without promotion. Some compositions were used as building blocks for tracks on AMFJ’s
subsequent release, Bæn (2011).
Bæn is AMFJ’s most ambitious release to date. It was produced by Valdimar Jóhannsson
(Reykjavík! Nine Elevens, Lazyblood) and has received critical acclaim in media, both in
Iceland and abroad. The aim of Bæn was to execute all the usual aspects of power
electronics and noise with a new angle and different approach in its sound, feel, and visual
aesthetic, thus building upon an otherwise two-dimensional genre.
Whether fast and furious, or calm and pensive, all AMFJ shows have intensity in common.
Ranging from 25-40 minutes in length, they are filled with mesmerizing feedback loops, mixed
with loud, beat oriented playbacks, and feature heavily sound-altered vocals presented with a
powerful and often theatrical performance, leaving no one untouched.







Calder was formed in Iceland when the paths of Lárus Sigurðsson and Ólafur Josephsson crossed. They decided to join forces and the result was a 5 track album of improvised, experimental, dreamy electric guitar music.
“Calder” was released through Ólafur´s Vogor Recording outfit and later picked up by Unlabel in the UK for their Series52 releases in a very limited pressing.

Lárus' background is in classical music and musical instrument making. He has played with various Icelandic musicians and self-released a handful of solo material which can be best described as guitar-based ambient with acoustic elements and new musical instruments. His album "Jarðhörpusálmar"
was entirely improvised on his own designs and creations of musical instruments, recorded by the affable producer Valgeir Sigurðsson.



Ólafur Josephsson has been experimenting with ambient guitar arrangements under the Stafrænn Hákon moniker since 1999. He has released his music through his own Vogor Recordings, Resonant Label, Nature Bliss, Chat Blanc, Secret Eye and Awkward Silence, with the music progressing and being increasingly refined since his first album "Eignas Jeppa" in 2001.

After the creative success of their debut, a second album by Calder was inevitable. The process began in 2005 when Lárus and Ólafur started exchanging ideas, shaping and molding their music, with the material being composed in a very collaborative way. Lárus handed Ólafur the acoustic melodic ideas he had come up with and Ólafur added his electric elements to the songs, which gradually acquired shape, depth and life. With this new music, melody, structure and beats have come more to the fore, although the beautiful and haunting guitar atmospherics are still evident, running like a thread through the album. 2008 saw the completion of this process and the result has been entitled "Lower" and can best be described as a fusion of experimental, ambient, classical and acoustic music.

LEGEND: they are the new ones - yet they are not new. They are Krummi Björgvinsson, artist and singer/songwriter of the famed rock band Minus. And Halldor Björnsson, composer/producer of innumerable works of musical mastercraft. 

Over the past 10 years these two friends had both separately become giants in the Scandinavian music scene. But, LEGEND had to become. 

As the tale tells, one night their passion for electronica, plus a seemingly quasi-telepathic studio work process -and copious amounts of beer - led a song called 'Devil In Me' to be born. This song was leaked to an Icelandic radio station and soared up to the top of the charts. 

Realising this had become more than an experiment, the duo took the name LEGEND, where spiritual conflict of darkness and light permeates their music. Some label it as 80s goth electro. But, rest assured, this collaboration is luminous, as these two talents combined shine brightly. 

The band's frontman and songwriter Krummi, is no stranger to the music world, having catapulted post hardcore band Minus to deals with Sony, Victory Records, Smekkleysa, and One Little Indian. LEGEND's debut album Fearless was self-released on vinyl and CD in Iceland April 2012 to astonishing reviews, including comparisons to what reads as a who's who of modern music. An essential record that will keep giving back. Highly conceptual, dark and danceable, this new-darkwave duo have the big ones it takes to back up their name. LEGEND signed to the Canadian label Artoffact Records. The album Fearless was re-released on 11th of December 2013 in North America, Canada and Europe. 

The long awaited debut album Fearless is out now and you can order the Icelandic version here online. Fearless is a 10 track album. It's a cohesive work that lies between a glacial synth work and gloomy industrial sound of 80s era. 
Our live show consists of a drummer, guitar, bass, keyboards and singer.

New album ´Midnight Champion´ is available on the all the major formats – vinyl, CD, and cassette, as well as digital download.  You can check out your options as well as listen to some tracks on their Bandcamp page HERE: https://legend.bandcamp.com/album/midnight-champion
A number of the songs are available for a free listen on YouTube:

Since the first edition was held in 1999 (in an airplane hangar), Iceland Airwaves has become one of the premier annual showcases for new music – Icelandic and otherwise – in the world. It's made a heap of friends and won many fans along the way, and been lavished with praise pretty much everywhere they write about music. Example: Rolling Stone magazine called it "The hippest long weekend on the annual music-festival calendar."

Some of the world's most exciting artists have performed there, too. The Shins, The Rapture, TV On The Radio, Florence and the Machine, Klaxons, Hot Chip, Flaming Lips, Wolf Parade, Bloc Party and Fatboy Slim have made the short hop from Europe or North America to share the stages with Iceland's finest talents, including bands such as Sigur Rós, FM Belfast, GusGus, múm, Singapore Sling and Dr Spock, to name but a few. And when the live bands have done their thing, top DJs from all over the world spin across the city until the crack of dawn.

But there's more to Airwaves than music. Reykjavík is quite possibly the perfect festival city – small enough to be welcoming, sophisticated enough to offer cultural, historical and nightlife diversions to rival cities ten times its size. Maybe twenty. Who knows? And it's surrounded by some of the most unique and astonishing natural beauty you're ever likely to see (this is a grand statement, but you should just see it).

Roll out of bed, hose the party remains out of your hair and hop on a bus. Before you can remember what you did the night before, you're looking at geysers, waterfalls, lava fields – all the best that a volcanic island has to offer, including the world-famous Blue Lagoon, favorite soaking spot of the international hung-over glitterati. Mmm! You can really taste the hipster! 

Drengur mikill með aðgang að stúdíó... Litla þekkingu á upptökum og enn minni af mixi og eftir vinnu. Ég gaula og glamra á öll hljóðfærin sjálfur, one man band eins og væri sagt á útlensku. Niðurstaðan er misjöfn en ég skemmti mér konunglega.

Icelandic pop/rock band Menn Ársins (en.: Men of the Year) was founded on 2005 in Reykjavík, Iceland by singer/guitarist Sváfnir and keyboard player/singer Halli (Haraldur Vignir). Their main goal in the beginning was to work on a few songs that Sváfnir had up his sleeve and wanted to work on.
Recordings were made and few of the songs got some considerable airplay on the national radio station. Drummer Diddi (Kjartan Guðnason) has been on board from the early days of the band.

With Sigurdór Guðmundsson joining the band on bass, the band started to work on some more songs with all the members chipping in on the songwriting. After an intensive rehearsal period in the fall of 2007 they locked themselves away at Lundgaard Studios in Denmark and recorded 12 tracks for their debut album (released on their own label in September 2008).

In 2010 the band participated in the Eurovision preliminaries in Iceland with an original song, Gefst ekki upp.  Early 2011 Sigurdór left the band and the remaining three started working on a new album, although heavily delayed due to the members' other engagements. In September 2012 the first single from an upcoming album was released, Morgundagurinn. The plan is to release one track per month for a year, releasing the 12 songs produced as an album in fall 2013.

The music of Menn Ársins does not easily fall into one category. All members are active musicians and have played in most styles of music. Haraldur has been with (grunge) rockers Dead Sea Apple for over a decade and is also composing and arranging in classical settings as well as composing for commercials. Drummer Diddi has played, for instance, with (Balkan folk sensation) Rússíbanar, rockers Ske and modern classical ensembles Ísafold Chamber Orchestra and Caput. Sváfnir is firmly rooted in the singer/songwriter (troubadour) tradition with some punk and new wave as an early influence as well.

So it’s easy to say that Menn Ársins have a big palette of influences and experiences to choose from and add to their musical musings. But at the core their music is melodic pop/rock with arrangements ranging from string laden ballads and horn driven grooves to stripped down up-tempo rocking out!


Menn Ársins are:

Haraldur Vignir Sveinbjörnsson - keyboard, guitar, vocals
Kjartan “Diddi” Guðnason – drums and percussion, background vocals
Sváfnir Sigurðarson – vocals, guitar
