An original and curious collection of Icelandic songs of the last 40 years in hip jazz arrangements. A mixture of evergreens, folk, punk and alternative music as well as successful international hits like Emiliana Torrini\u2019s Jungle Drum, J\u00f3nsi\u2019s (of Sigur R\u00f3s) Animal Arithmetic and Bj\u00f6rk\u2019s Army of me. A great glimpse into today\u2019s Icelandic jazz scene as well as a great overview of the Icelandic popular song tradition.<\/span><\/p>\n
