Anyone checked out this guy? He recently put out an album and it is freaking amazing.
It's Strengir Hrynja, and every single track on it is hands-down amazing. I'd call it a blend of Autechre and Richard Devine with a little bit of mangled vocal chopping here and there. It's also incredibly bass-heavy (and incredibly well-mastered overall) so it really rocks the car stereo.
I uploaded a track so you all can check it out: here

I have two versions of it. Bit of a mess when I was downloading. Anyway, one is the correct 6 track album and the other is somewhat of a mystery. The first track on it sounds like Water with most of the bass removed, almost as though it's a demo and the rest are just similar style. I can't find any information about a 10 track release though so I have no idea what it really is.

this is almost definately my favourite 'electronic' release this year. every song sounds soo good. i think there's only just the one album though aside from a compilation appearance or two.
if you like this you'd probably also really like einoma, samples. equally lovely.

I've heard some with both. Traject won an electronic music competition here in Iceland some time ago with that song. Don't know if it's exactly that version though...and yeah it's a good album.

aye, the traject album rocks..bought it after hearing his track on the ai stattion compilation..and getting stuff from the spezial material label is always a safe bet.

Ahh sorry didn't see the other threads. Also, does anyone know if any --aps rips of this album exist? I only have a 175kbps rip. I think I'm going to go out and by the album and rip a high qual version for everyone.
Also, I don't think I've seen any other stuff from him appear except on the ai stations release (which is a top notch release btw)
