Personal Top 5 Favorite Finds of Iceland Airwaves '12
From Luuk:
Pascal Pinon (IS)
Oyama (IS)
Blouse (US)
Samaris (IS)
Others to mention could include so many like Prism Waves, some folks from the states that had a really dreamy set and tapes!!! The only tapes we saw besides our own; Valdimar, a band that is so huge in Iceland and sings strictly in Icelandic- very upbeat and kinda rockin'; The Heavy Experience, a band that sounds a bit like EARTH; or Low Roar, a guy from the US but lives in Iceland and makes music for a living.
There were so many to be seen and so many we just happened to see, like Cercueil, a band from France I could have sworn were actually Beach House.
Also, every band uses a NORD keyboard.
The Casio of these parts and the accent of every band.
P.S. After this experience, I've decided to create my own travel guide to Iceland
so you can follow in our footsteps, try the food we've tasted, see the sights
we see, or take note of a few other attractions I've heard about along the way.
I plan to make it myself in good time, so I'm sure there will be more news about it
whenever it happens.
Maybe there will even be a Part Two one day.
