This is my first ever song that I used something other than piano...which was Cubase, to add various instrument tracks. Had a lot of fun making it!

ABOUT LIVING ROOM SONGS:

Icelandic contemporary composer Ólafur Arnalds created and released a new song, one per day for one for one whole week during the month of October 2011. The songs were recorded and filmed live in the living room of his Reykjavik apartment and released instantly for free as streamed videos and mp3 downloads.

Thousands of fans followed this exciting project online at: livingroomsongs.olafurarnalds.com

Living Room Songs will now also be released on CD, Vinyl, Ltd. Special Edition CD &amp; DVD and as High Quality Downloads on December 5th via Erased Tapes.


Following in the spirit of Ólafur Arnalds’ critically acclaimed Found Songs (2009) now comes Living Room Songs. This time Ólafur takes the idea further and invites the audience into the comfort of his living room, where the songs were recorded live and the whole process filmed. The songs were instantly released in form of a free mp3 download and video stream- straight from Ólafur's Reykjavik apartment.

IN HIS OWN WORDS: ‘One night I was just playing my piano here in this apartment and I was writing a new song and I didn't have my phone on me which I usually use to record ideas. So I actually took out my MacBook and I didn't want to open like a proper recording program, so I just opened Photo Booth and recorded a video of myself playing the song so that I would remember the song. And I really liked the atmosphere of that video and that's when I thought I should do a series of songs in my living room...’             – Ólafur Arnalds


Born in the suburban Icelandic town of Mosfellsbær, a few kilometers outside of Reykjavík, the 24-year old composer has always enjoyed pushing boundaries with both his studio work and his live-shows. Through relentless touring and determination this young artist has steadily gained recognition worldwide since his 2007 debut Eulogy for Evolution. Ólafur Arnalds’ second full-length album ...and they have escaped the weight of darkness, continues his mission to lure an indie-generation of pop and rock fans into an emotive world of beguiling electronic chamber music and delicate classical arrangements. Ólafur is currently touring with Ryuichi Sakamoto on his Trio Tour throughout Europe.

For Lucie

In Darkness, You Were My Light

I always thought I have much to owe to Iceland's very own Ólafur Arnalds. Those who know me well enough can prove that my true and ultimate "fandom" is towards this little country in the North. This passion started with music, with Sigur Rós, with Ólafur Arnalds, you name it. Then came learning the language, going there, working there and coming back, it has become a focal point in my studies as well. I have heard 'Near Light' some times before my girlfriend and I went to see Óli play in Budapest but there, live, it had such an impact on me that I remember I was just nodding along to the piano part, closed my eyes and began to feel alright. For those four minutes I think I saw my future. Today I ran into this song again and though it inspired a song I have yet to record for the second Laughing Vixen release, it made me wish I could think in music like he does. Since I cannot because he is a genius, I did the most I could: I re-edited 'Near Light' to be longer and more angelic. Enjoy.

Og þakka þér Óli!

Ólafur Arnalds - Near Light (Laughing Vixen Orsa Edit)

Description
I am a classically trained pianist turned amateur music producer in 2014. I enjoy infusing piano elements with mellow beats, electronica, and quirky synths in my music. I was first inspired musically to make video game remixes (and still love to), but I also create original content and write excessively long descriptions for my songs. Most of my sound has electronic elements and an overall chilled, ambient vibe. I hope to one day have a career in video game, television, movie, or solo music production. Some of my music can be found on Spotify, iTunes, Pandora, Google Play Music, Amazon, and a few others, so be sure to look me up on your favorite musical app! I have also been featured on OverClocked ReMix - my handle is ZiSotto there. Let me know if you have any requests or would like to work with me. Thank you for listening and subscribing! :)

Founded by sonic architect and explorer Robert Raths aka ghostworker in 2007, Erased Tapes is a truly independent record label that has disrupted the industry and rejuvenated the musical landscape. The London-based label has consistently nurtured genre-defying artists from all around the world without losing its avant-garde ethos.

2015 saw BBC 6 Music radio presenter Mary Anne Hobbs stage an Erased Tapes evening featuring Nils Frahm and A Winged Victory For The Sullen at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the prestigious BBC Prom. It was the fastest selling ticket of the entire season. Shortly after Erased Tapes was awarded Best Small Label 2015 at the AIM Awards.

On February 5th 2017 Erased Tapes opened the doors to its new East London home, marking the 10th anniversary by introducing fans and the public to the new Erased Tapes Sound Gallery.

“Ten years of one of the most important record labels of the last few years“ — Gilles Peterson

"Over the last decade, Robert Raths’ label Erased Tapes has developed a sonic profile perfectly in step with the growing taste for quiet, meditative works on the cusp of ambient and chamber music" — The Independent

“The heart-string-tugging London label that floats gently between 20th century composition and ambient music” — Rolling Stone

Hi, we're an orchestral driven post-rock band from Bournemouth, UK. Our music is available on our Bandcamp, we hope you enjoy it | http://nearlight.bandcamp.com/

Psycho Breaker's Longest Day is out now on my bandcamp! https://freshtildesu.bandcamp.com/album/psycho-breakers-longest-day

Laughing Vixen's jam-like, alternative and shoegazing style has much to owe to the alternative rock music of the 1990s as well as to the post rock movement that emerged in the Noughties.
