Icelandic artist Thorgerdur is emerging as one of the Nordic’s most exciting artists and for very good reason. Her DJ sets and productions are equally as diverse and full of creativity, as a result she has come to the attention of a wide cross section of audiences. Whether you have caught her at one of her bases in Iceland, Oslo, Berlin, or even further afield at events in The Netherlands and even New York, we are sure you will have been impressed. We know we have been, which is exactly why we insisted she join us in Oslo for our Norwegian weekender this past week.
The Blossy co-founder is currently splitting her time between her beloved homes while also finding time to drop heat at various clubs and festivals around Europe, but she has also got something very special to share with us today. Thorgerdur has penned the next edition of our Free Download series and the result is the lush forlorn breakbeats of “íslensk og elska Það”. At the risk of typecasting an artists work the soundscape conjures up crystalline Icelandic mountain rivers but underpinned by a highly informed and in form ear for what works on the dancefloor. Her dazzling set at our party at Oslo’s Smelteverket last weekend really put the Martin Audio soundsystem through its paces, it is just a shame that her Free Download was not yet fully baked as it would have been perfection.
You can download for free Thorgerdur’s “íslensk og elska Það” via our Soundcloud page.
