amiina = so beautiful

amiina is a band made up of four icelandic women in their mid-twenties. their latest release, kurr, is made up of magnificent instrumentals, that i cannot seem to get enough of. they do not use many traditional instruments, but employ a strange assortment of things they have found in second-hand shops, or just create their instruments themselves. this makes for some very interesting and beautiful moments. as i listen, i find myself thinking, "...what could be making that sound? or that one? oooh, that one is nice!...". indeed! and what style!



please do check out their music. you can have a listen to a few tracks on their myspace page.
