"Young Swede who lives in Iceland and does wonderful things with his laptop. Could very well be on the Warp or Morr label."
Dirk Steenhaut - Studio Brussels
"...the music speaks it's own language. There is something to all these crackly sounds. A feeling of comfort in loneliness."
Lea Pålsson - Groove.se
"...chilly and raw drums meet dreamy and melancholic melodies. [...] This album [Alltihop] is excellent..."
Ragnheiður Eiríksdóttir - Morgunblaðið
Composer of electronic and classical music, born 1981. The electronic side of the music is yet the most developed, but the music drifts more and more towards the domains of classical music. Released the mp3 album 'After summer comes fall" for free on the net label Electronical in 2004. In 2006, the song Skirpe and Virpe was released on the free net compilation Post Awakening Sound. In 2007 three new compositions were used in the movie Daymaker. The album 'Alltihop' was released in early spring 2009 on Kimi records and is available for sale on their homepage [www.kimirecords.net] and on the blog [mikaellind.blogspot.com]. It recieved 5/5 in Iceland's biggest newspaper Morgunblaðið and 4/5 in the online edition of Swedish music magazine Groove. Later the same year the mini album 'Improvisations for piano' was released as a free download. A new album is in the making, and plans on a Scandinavian tour in summer 2010.

PORTER RECORDS "FOLKANIZATION" OUT NOW !!! BY FRANCESCO GIANNICO
The fluttering of distant memories comes to life through the sounds of Francesco Giannico, whose blend of electronics and acoustic instruments paint beautiful pictures of lost times. His musical approach is described as a cinematic journey which pushes the boundaries of digital media even further by incorporating smooth melodies and gentle textures. More traditional instruments such as guitar and piano are constantly present into Francesco’s music, within interrupted structures or long and dreaming sonorous carpets.
tack ska du ha du, kul! håll ett öga på oss. för övrigt skulle det vara så himla coolt att komma till island och spela. i höst kommer jag och Jenny troligtvis att ge oss ut på turné med ett lite mindre projekt än cirkus transmopol, och spela bland annat miracle maker-musik. hör av dig om det dyker upp något forum där det kunde passa in!
