A Bubblebee is member of the genus Bubblus, in the family Apibae. They have round bodies covered in a soft unknown fiber and bright coloration that seems to change according to the vibrations present in the environment. They harvest Starpollen from a particular flower that can only grow if exposed to infraorange micro waves. For this purpose, it appears that many eons ago a special garden was erected (we can determine this after the analysis of the compression used to enclose the elements present in the structure) for the sole purpose of preserving and sustaining the pollination cycle. The result of a successful pollination by the Bubblebees provides enough yield to create pearls for ≈200 litres of boba tea. Additionally, pearls are often used to play on the marble circuit every 2nd Sunday of the month.

Izzard - Secret Garden ft. Merival

Order 'Blurred' on LP/DL: phonofile.link/blurred

Kiasmos mark their return in 2017 with a new 12” EP titled Blurred — available worldwide on October 6th via Erased Tapes.

Since their 2015 Swept EP, the duo have been performing shows extensively across the world. After writing and recording together in their native Iceland this year, the pair will be bringing a glimpse of light to a particularly gloomy time of year as their light sounds are brighter than ever.

Words from Ólafur and Janus, August 2017: 
￼ 
￼￼“To write new material felt like a new beginning for us after two years of touring. The plan was to ￼write something a tad darker than our previous stuff. Spring in Reykjavík had other plans though, as this turned out to be our brightest release to date.” — Janus Rasmussen

￼“Stimming was one of the reasons we started making four-on-the-floor music and we have been listening to Bonobo since we were young, so it was a great honour that they wanted to contribute remixes for the EP.” — Ólafur Arnalds

￼The EP closes with remixes from British producer Bonobo and German electronic musician Stimming, taking tracks Blurred and Paused into different coloured realms.

The cover art featuring the iconic Kiasmos symbol is by long-time Erased Tapes collaborator Torsten Posselt at FELD.

Helios - Even Today

The first track from my new tape "finding solitude".

north fell

strawberry season

once a day or almost every day I put my clothes away in drawers, check off a chore. muddy mind no matter how I try, and so the folding goes and lo I’m all alone. 
stuck in the mud all night while the brain rain pours
make all the world go dry close your eyes until it does because
you're stuck in the mud hold tight while the clouds blow O
make all the world go bye close your eyes until it does, it does.
and the  more that you fight it the more you find
you’re thinkina thinkina lettina
good thing let go

awf efjjjf iiewl

scrubbing grime I let the dishes dry and watch the clouds align, a storm, I watch it pour, lines of rain spin down the windowpane, a little grey ballet, a show. I watch it flow.
stuck in the mud don’t mind what’s the weather for
make all the world run wild like you always said it does it does
you're stuck in the mud don't fight what's the effort for
take all the time you’d like close your eyes until it does, it does
