Dark Music Days

Stuart reports from Dark Music Days, a festival for the dark heart of new Icelandic music. We hear from three different artists performing at the festival - the electro-acoustic composer / punk guitarist Rikhardur Fridriksson; Sigrun a touring vocalist and trombonist with Bjork and Florence and the Machine presents her solo material and the contemporary classical music composer Anna Thorvaldsdottir shares her thoughts on the Icelandic landscape and the orchestra.

We also have several tracks from the featured album, a lo-fi synth-driven record that gives 1980s goth-pop a makeover by John Maus called We Must Become The Pitiless Censors Of Ourselves from 2011. Plus loads of new music from the likes of Bloke Music, Time Grove, Housewives and Fumaca Preta.
