Olafur Arnalds – a boy with an old soul

This is how a 21 years old man can sound.

Vid vorum smá

Himininn er ad hrynja, en störnurnar fara pér vel

More after the jump…

Haust

FOK

This is not his, but it sounds like a heavy, cold, mind blowing winter on your soul

Erla’s Waltz


Some heavy classical music

In April 2009, Iceland’s neo-classical export Ólafur Arnalds created the 7-song series ‘Found Songs’
recording a song a day for 7 days and instantly making each track available via Twitter. With artwork contributions
from fans via Flickr, this modern release awakens memories of a tradition that seemed lost in the digital age we live in.

You can listen to these tracks and also download for free here
