Container / ULTRAORTHODOX / The Hidden People
The picker of this issue is Arnór Dan, who is best known for
being the singer of genre-defying Agent Fresco. His band just
released their latest album, 'Destrier', that has been critically
received by the foreign press, but yet to be reviewed by the
Icelandic print media. Arnór has spent the last three years working
in music, touring with his band through Europe, with Ólafur
Arnalds through the US and Asia, and then working locally as
a part-time music teacher in Fellaskóli. He's fiercely passionate
about music that's not driven by perfectionism, but by liveliness
and honesty, where the performance and musical direction go
hand in hand.
You can find the events our picker of the issue found to be
interesting spread out over the music pages marked with this

Yous gots Container, a one-man mechanical band all the way
from the US of A with maxed-out beats like construction site
sounds to get you well in the mood for some good ol' fashioned
noise (and beyond... o_O). There's The Hidden People, coming
at you with danceable club sounds interspersed with just enough
oddity to keep you on your feet. Also, the night wouldn't be
complete without ULTRAORTHODOX swooping in with his deft
hand at industrial techno (you might call him a magician, or a
metallurgist in the sonic sense). SO GET READY TO GET LOUD,
REYKJAVÍK. SLWF
