In Harmony (Ásgeir)

by Brady Paron |

A few months ago, I posted about the Icelandic singer, Ásgeir Trausti, whose kick ass song "King and Cross" was an instant favourite of mine.

Now, I'd like to share another song of his. From his second studio album and debut English album, In The Silence, Ásgeir's "In Harmony" pulses with folk-inspired melodies and falsetto harmonies. It's layers are reminiscent of Justin Vernon and fellow Icelandic singer, Jonsi (of Sigur Ros), and the expansive depth of the track is what makes Ásgeir's music so great to listen to. The sounds are simple, but as you listen, there is room to allow yourself to sink into the track and disappear in amongst the fjords that he sings about repeatedly. If you haven't listened to any of Ásgeir's music, you should so. It's encompassing, enthralling, and has depth - the kind of soundscape that makes you reflect on whatever it is that's on your mind.

Take a listen to "In Harmony", and let me know what you think.
