Our Take

GEORG HOLM / ORRI PALL DYRASON's latest offering, Circe, is a wild ride of sonic experimentation and unbridled creativity. From start to finish, this album takes listeners on a journey through a kaleidoscope of sound that both dazzles and surprises.

Holm and Dyrason, better known for their work in the Icelandic powerhouse Sigur Rós, have crafted a masterful blend of ambient electronic and avant-garde rock that defies categorization. Each track on Circe feels like a sonic puzzle waiting to be solved, with layers upon layers of intricate instrumentation and otherworldly vocals.

The opening track, "Aeon," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its haunting melodies and ethereal atmosphere. As the album progresses, tracks like "Circe" and "Orbit" showcase the duo's ability to push the boundaries of conventional music, creating a tapestry of sound that is both complex and mesmerizing.

It's clear that Holm and Dyrason are not content with resting on their laurels as members of one of the most innovative bands of our time. With Circe, they have proven that they are capable of standing on their own as visionary artists in their own right.

In conclusion, Circe is a testament to the boundless creativity of its creators, a sonic exploration that is as captivating as it is enigmatic. You won't just listen to this album – you'll experience it.
