Calder Lower CD

Calder formed in Iceland when musical instrument maker Lrus Sigur?sson and ?lafur Josephsson, who is perhaps best known for his recordings under the alias Stafr'nn Hkon, met and decided to join forces. Their first collaborations resulted in self-titled five-track album of improvised, experimental instrumentals that was released through ?lafur's Vogor Recordings and later picked up by UK indie Unlabel. Lrus' background is in classical music, having played with various Icelandic musicians and self-released a handful of solo recordings. With this new music, melody, structure and beats have come more to the fore, although the beautiful and haunting guitar atmospherics are still evident.
