Brilliantinus, has been collaborating with rapper Kött Grá Pjé and has his debut album com- ing out soon. He’ll be performing his mellow electronica at Secret Solstice. The reputation of Reykjavíkurdætur, has spread well beyond the borders of our small country. The album ‘Reykja- víkurdætur’ will be released in the end of May. This is a milestone for the rap clan, who will be busy this summer per- forming at various places, including the Roskilde Festival.

Meanwhile, Kristján Eldjárn has released his first solo track as Kreld; the track is called “Way Low.” The song is another collaboration with Jófríður and the underwater music video was created by Magnús Andersen. Super fly rapper $igmund is the new- est face to Reykjavík’s music scene. Check out his fresh single and video "Ertu Til". We're calling banger. MUSIC NEWS IN BRIEF When did you start DJing? I got interested in playing music for oth- ers quite early. As a child I made mixtapes and was elected to be in charge of music at school balls. I got my first DJ gig at Faktorý on Smiðjustígur (R.I.P.) with my friend Logi Leó—we DJed together as “it is mag- ic.” Bervit was born sometime last year. What styles do you play? My taste for electronic music grew a lot after I spent a year studying in the Neth- erlands and experiencing the clubbing scene there as well as in Germany. Techno and its history fascinates me the most and that is what I like to play. Ambient music and some types of bass music are also close to my heart. What’s your favourite Reykjavík venue to play? Paloma is my favorite venue to play dance music. People that go there are generally open-minded and interested in hearing something different. I go there a lot my- self. Stofan, the café, is a great place to play more relaxed and ambient stuff. The mood of that place is definitely set by the music being played. Do you like to use decks, or laptop, effects or extra gear? I'm interested in mixing digital and ana- logue gear—whatever feels right and sounds good. I'm looking to add turn- tables to my setup at the moment. I think it’s important to know how to use most of the available equipment out there. Do you like playing to a party crowd or a sitting crowd? I enjoy playing for crowds that like music for its beauty and ability to evoke a range of emotions. It’s up to them how they posi- tion their bodies while listening. What are your five essential tracks of the moment? 1. ”Camargue” by CJ Bolland It is full of life and a good example of Bel- gian techno that was released a year after I was born. 2. ”I Cry (Night After Night)” by Egyptian Lover It is an emotional yet funny track by this American musician which interestingly mixes elements of hip-hop and European electronic music. 3. “Mr Dry” by Tim Green My girlfriend played it for me once and now I can't get its subdued vocal and wonky sound out of my head. 4. “Papua New Guinea” by Future Sound Of London When the Danish DJ Courtesy played it during this year’s Sónar festival I was re- minded how amazing this classic is. 5. “Best Friend” by Nina Kraviz This song as well as DVS1's remixes of it is detailed, laid-back and honest techno which I like a lot right now.
