Our Picks

Sónar Reykjavík
16-17 March - 20:00 - Harpa
Sónar Reykjavík
returns for its
sixth edition
this February,
bringing a selec-
tion of major
musical players
to the gleaming
Harpa concert
hall. To Icelandic
electronic music
aficionados, the
annual Sónar
Reykjavík festival
is something
of a “techno
Christmas.” In the
long-established
model of Iceland
Airwaves, this
Harpa-based two-
day party mixes
international big
name bookings
like Underworld
with the cream of
the rich and di-
verse local scene.
Whether you’re an
incoming raver
looking to key
into what’s new in
Icelandic dance
music, or just an
open-eared fes-
tival goer looking
for some clues on
what not to miss,
make sure to see
Andartak, Bjarki,
Cold, Countess
Malaise, Flóni, and
Mighty Bear. Plus,
for a Dawn Of The
Dead-style finale,
check out the
gurning hordes
pouring into the
lobby at closing
time. HJC

Lord
Pusswhip Album
Release Party
23 March -
22:00 Gaukurinn
‘Stationz ov
the Puss’ is
Pusswhip’s
newest effort.
It’ll be groovy,
weird, and
addictive. HJC

Reykjavík
Goth Night
24 March -
21:00 Gaukurinn
Insert jokes here
about blacks
not matching,
Peter Steele, and
all that other
shit. Dress to
depress,
nerds. HJC

Geisha Cartel / Verkfell
16 March - 22:00 - Tivoli - Free!
Geisha Cartel has that mumble-trap
sound you crave when it’s 6 AM and
you’re stuck at an after party. Think
smooth beats, a shitton of AutoTune,
and a touch of depression. Pop a
xanny (please don’t mix with alcohol
or if you do, don’t mention the Grape-
vine), show up, and remember to be
aloof. HJC

Aldrei fór ég suður
29-31 March - Ísafjörður - Free!
Aldrei fór ég suður (“I never went
south,” in English) is an annual
free music festival held in the
Westfjords town of Ísafjörður, or as
it is colloquially known, Ibiza-fjörður.
Come for beautiful mountains,
whales, and music acts like Cyber,
Birnir, Dimma, Hatari, and Friðrik Dór.
Did we mention it’s free? HJC
