Hrím means frost. I wrote most of it in the weeks when the sun doesn't clear the mountain, and recorded the last piece on the beach the morning the fjord froze at its edges.

About

A studio in a fish factory

I grew up in Seyðisfjörður and came back in 2018, after ten years of playing in other people's bands in Reykjavík and Berlin. My studio is the old fish factory by the harbour, where the walls hold the cold and a wall of modular synthesisers keeps me warm.

I write for the screen as often as for records: short films, a few documentaries and one very quiet ferry advert. Most of what I sell started as a field recording, a patch or a drawer of score sketches.
