![[Listen] Múm: "Gle∂ileg Jól"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3939334_lg.jpg)
Desde por ahi de 2009 que escuchamos "Sing Along to Songs You Don't Know" como que no habiamos tenido muchas novedades sobre Múm pero esto, se ha terminado en estas ultimas semanas del año y que mejor, que tener novedades de estos Islandeses con un lanzamiento con toda la tematica navideña que viene rodeando esta semana (aunque no paresca). Anyways, "Gle∂ileg Jól" es el titulo de este pequeño sencillo en 7" que acaba de lanzar Múm el cual incluye dos tracks titulados "Babbi Segir" y " Nú Er Gunna á Nýju Skónum" que no necesariamente son composiciones de ellos [...]

![[Review/Listen] – Korallreven – "An Album By Korallreven"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3893494_lg.jpg)
Tweet I, for one, am loving the Scandinavian synthesizer renaissance that's been delivering all kinds of flavors and textures of progressive, expansive electronic music lately. From Múm to Tough Alliance and even Detektivbyrån, it's evident that software and synth-pads are becoming as integral as strings and skins. Korallreven , I'm glad to say, isn't rocking the boat. The Swedish duo has just released their new album, "An Album By Korallreven" . What they've done is mix many of the structural elements of [...]

Being that my typical night consists of hitting the sack at around 10pm, and that my new radio show is Friday nights from 10pm to midnight, I figured that my second show would center around the theme of sleep . So I pieced together a playlist of bedroom pop, chill wave, dreamy shoegaze and what I've dubbed as psychedelic ambiance. I took over for Stuarto just after 10 with a brief description of my first track, which I don't believe made it on air. The switch-over was a bit rushed [...]
The Morr music label, established in 1999 in Berlin, has produced some of the best dreampop/ indietronica I've ever heard. If you haven't heard anything from B. Fleishmann, Sin Fang, etc., then you have yet to LIVE. múm - Oh, How the Boat Drifts B. Fleishmann - Broken Monitors Ms. John Soda - Scan the ways Lali Puna - Grin and Bear Sin Fang - Fall Down Slow Contriva - Good to Know Isan - Willowy Guther - Deepest [...]
The day is cloudy with the possibility of rain. When I woke up, the house was only 62°, and I was darn cold. Obviously Fern and Gracie were too as both of them were leaning against me in bed. I warmed up the house so I can take a shower when I finish here, but it still feels damp and chilly. Life has gone back to the mundane. I've started my daily list of chores and was busy yesterday with the trash, the litter and the dump. Today I have wash. Just over a week ago I was [...]
From Ryan from Swaziland: If anyone out there read my last HYMN detailing my relationship with Hood's "You are Worth the Whole World" you know my affinity for electro-acoustic bands from the early 2000's and the brittle sputter of a drum machine over a piano's minor chord progression plunked from within the bowels of some forlorn lighthouse atop some Bronte-esque crag half-hidden by Iceland's Volcanic clouds. Actually, that is exactly how this song was recorded. The Icelandic collective nested inside a lighthouse [...]
Cuando a uno le plantean "pop electrónico" como etiqueta o género...es fácil pensar en sonidos ochenteros, mucho sintetizador, vocoders, etc. Pero igual que el hombre no sólo vive de club, el pop electrónico no siempre cumple con esos estereotipos. Así pues aprovecho hoy para cargarme dos mitos, ése y otro que es casi peor: los [...]
Click image to download full album Song: Sigur Ros - Gobbeldigook "Sigur Ros - Gobbeldigook" What's so good? Back in 2008, Sigur Ros released the first track off their albumMeð suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust, titled "Gobbledigook." It peaked at #9 on the Iceland singles chart and climbed to #71 on Pitchfork's 100 Best Tracks of 2008, but didn't have much impact otherwise. Honestly, I'm not sure why it didn't do better. When I first heard the [...]

Heitä hyvästit arkirealismille, antaudu eksentrisen edessä! Islannin taikamaailmasta tiensä maailmalle löytävät jatkuvasti uudet, loputtoman mielenkiintoiset musiikintekijät. Huvilan Islanti-illassa la 3.9. tunnelmoidaan Ólöf Arnaldsin , Mugisonin , Sin Fangin ja Múm DJ'sien kanssa. Illan mittaan nähdään myös suomalaiseksi syntynyt islantilainen, Samuli Kosmine n. Ólöf Arnaldsin ihanaa ääntä on kuultu Múmin kiertueilla. Keijukainen, kitara ja kauniit melodiat: Arnaldsin musiikki kulkee kuulaana ja kirkkaana oikeuttaen satunnaiset vertailut keijukaiskuningatar Joanna Newsomiin. Kitaralla kappaleitaan kuljettaa myös Mugison. Äkkiväärää indiepoppia esittävän Mugisonin ihailijakerhoon ovat liittyneet niin Super Furry Animals, Fantomâs kuin Ghostdigitalkin. Elektronisia [...]
Click image to download full album Song: Björk - Cosmogony "Björk - Cosmogony" What's so good? Today I learned that Björk's new album Biophilia has an introduction courtesy of David Attenborough . Can anything possibly be more badass? Yeah, didn't think so. The album's newest single "Cosmogony" is a slower song, reminiscent of the music put forth by fellow Icelanders, Sigur Ros. Given the context of Attenborough's narration (below), the lyrics of the track make [...]

Can anything possibly be more badass? Yeah, didn't think so. "Cosmogony" is a slower song, reminiscent of the music put forth by fellow Icelanders, Sigur Ros.

Click image to download full album Song: Björk - Cystalline "Björk - Cystalline" What's so good? Björk's back on the scene, and her music is as relevant as ever. Featuring modern percussion, sparse instrumentation, and a trippy vibe, "Crystalline" marks the first single from her upcoming album Biophilia , set to be released on September 26, 2011. Curiously, this album is billed as "the first app album," collaborating with Apple to produce it as such. While this alone [...]
Download great new covers of Bob Dylan, múm, the Beatles, James Brown, and a 'Rocky Horror' gem.
Scrappy, abrasive and lo-fi garage-punk from Vancouver all-girl three-piece Yung Mums, showing that good music is often knowing when enough is enough rather than messing around with being 'tight' or sounding clean. They're fairly simple jams but perfectly judged - just the kind of excellent stuff that would start out on Sex Is Disgusting were they UK-based. Yung Mums - Thru With U Yung Mums - Dead South Yung Mums - Cobra [...]
I just watched this video of FM Belfast over at We All Want Someone To Shout For (a constant source of great music) and I had to pass this video along. This clip is from the movie Backyard . I don't speak Icelandic but after watching the music clip and the movie trailer, I want it. The movie documents a few folks putting on a concert in a backyard with oh... Múm , FM Belfast and Sing Fang Bous to name a few. The song Underwear is about running through streets and over [...]
Happy Birthday to a real, badass dude: the Buddha. Without getting into a religious discussion, I feel that some albums are better at relaxing the listener and in some ways engage them at a deeper level. In these cases, the music serves as a map to guide the listener along a journey of self-discovery. In our modern, hectic lives, consumed by outside distractions and never-ending suffering around every corner, few of us can truly turn within and for just a moment, think deeply. As soon as we turn on our favorite album or mix-tape from someone [...]
Of late, I've been listening to a lot of pseudo-electronic music. Stuff that borders on chillwave, throwbacks to new wave but with an electronic twist, a lot of it European-influenced, most of it with a nerdy edge to it that's walks the threshold between awkwardness and the invariably cool. Stuff that can, in a way, be adequately described as psychedelic ambiance. This is the first of a few podcasts to fit this mold so you can think of it as part one, as that's precisely what it is - the playlist grew and grew until I simply [...]
