Today on RÚV English Radio, the music of Mikael Lind.
Mikael's music is electronic, but definitely with a classical touch too. It can be heard not just on streaming sites, but in installations such as the ongoing Hamflettur with Sigga Björg in Listasafn Árnesinga (https://listasafnarnesinga.is/hveragerdi/syningar/hamflettur/), and previously in venues such as Ásmundarsafn.
True to form for an Icelandic musician, he collaborates with many others, including Hoshiko Yamane from Tangerine Dream (https://open.spotify.com/album/7604aqDHo0lYKcJJmUwHBq?si=ybTRHfPMS0WSbNkh1oFCUQ), with whom he is also working on another release.
His new album is called Scraptools (https://mikaellind.bandcamp.com/album/scraptools) and can be pre-ordered now.
Darren met Mikael at iconic capital record store 12 Tónar for a chat.
