[Thor Joachim Haga]

Alright….last Nordic recommendation for the day. Ólafur Arnalds is one of the those interesting Icelandic composers that keep the Jóhannsson tradition alive – slowmoving, slightly minimalist, melancholic. Nice guy too, I hung out with him a bit in Cannes some years ago. While this may be his most famous work, I prefer the two 2014 efforts GIMME SHELTER and LIFE IN A FISHBOWL more, the latter still not commercially released, AFAIK.
