Fejnaltural is an exploration of Iceland’s stark, breathtaking landscapes and the raw forces that shape them. The album’s title is a made-up word that evokes the delicate balance between nature and the fine-tuned human experience, blending electronic sounds with an undercurrent of Icelandic tradition. Each track is a chapter in a story that spans from the understated cold of an "Icebreaker" to the unyielding light of the "Midnight Sun," and from the isolated mysteries of the "Highlands" to the alien beauty of "Traces." Fejnaltural is a journey into the heart of Iceland—a place where ancient land meets modern sound, where tension and harmony coexist. With its blend of deep rhythms, intense beats, and thoughtful vocals, the album invites listeners to experience Iceland not just as a place, but as a living, breathing force.

MT Volume 11

Fejnaltural
The title track of the album, "Fejnaltural," embodies the essence of a word that sounds Icelandic yet is uniquely made up, evoking "fine and nature." With the Icelandic vocal "your eyes shine on me tonight," this track blends ethereal melodies with a deep connection to the natural world.

C / 124 BPM
Fejnaltural
"Augu þín skína á mig í kvöld"
"Your eyes shine on me tonight"

Midnight Sun
"We are one with nature in the summertime"—the vocal mantra in "Midnight Sun" echoes through this intense, electrifying track. The harder beats mirror the unyielding light of Iceland’s midnight sun, a phenomenon that blurs the line between day and night, nature and humanity.

C / 130 BPM
"Við erum eitt með náttúrunni á sumrin"
"We are one with nature, in the summer time"

Midnight Sun

Rising
"Rising" is a high-intensity track that channels the volatile, unpredictable nature of Iceland’s volcanic activity. With its fast-paced beats and tension-filled atmosphere, this track pushes the limits, reflecting the ever-present energy simmering beneath Iceland’s surface.

C / 130 BPM

Rising

Icebreaker
The opening track of Fejnaltural sets the tone with its crisp, cool electronic sounds. Like the first crack in a frozen landscape, "Icebreaker" paves the way into the album’s immersive journey. With the cautious vocals "Þú þekkir mig ekki og ég þekki þig ekki" / "You don't know me and I don't know you," the track adds a twist, reflecting the uncertain first encounters in an unfamiliar world. Atmospheric textures and pulsating beats hint at the deeper explorations to come.

"Þú þekkir mig ekki og ég þekki þig ekki"
"You don't know me and I don't know you"

C / 130 BPM

Icebreaker

Highlands
"There is a place… Hálendi." This track captures the isolation and mystery of the Icelandic highlands, with a custom instrument emulating the traditional langspil. The haunting melodies and harder electronic edges transport listeners to a remote, almost mystical landscape only accessible in the late summer.

C / 130 BPM
"There is a place"
"Hálendi"

Highlands

Bonewalk
A harder, techno-infused dive into the heart of Iceland’s dance music scene, "Bonewalk" brings a darker energy to the album. The track’s growling bassline and driving rhythms create a relentless momentum, embodying the raw, untamed spirit of the Icelandic wilderness.

C / 124 BPM

Bonewalk (Prelude)

Traces
Following "Highlands," "Traces" delves into an alien, almost otherworldly soundscape. Inspired by the barren, volcanic terrains of Iceland, the track’s freaky, techno-infused beats evoke a sense of unease and wonder, as if exploring a Martian landscape on Earth.
