The Last Word - Olafur Arnalds
Interview with the Icelandic composer/performer about his latest album 'Now I Am Winter', working with Nico Mulli, Arnor Dan, and the influence of film scoring on his solo career
Born 1986 in the suburban Icelandic town of Mosfellsbær, a few kilometers outside of Reykjavík, composer/performer Ólafur Arnalds has always enjoyed pushing boundaries with both his studio work and live-shows. Since the release of his debut album Eulogy for Evolution in 2007 he has built up a dedicated international following and is well established for his genre-crossing compositions blending classical, pop and ambient/electronica influences to a unique musical language.
