After dropping several tracks and performing at select festivals throughout the years, Ólafur Arnalds and Janus Rasmussen dedicated the year 2014 to explore the area in-between Ólafur’s more acoustic, piano-based solo work and Janus’s synth-heavy electro pop, with their collaborative electronic project Kiasmos. By focusing solely on their self-titled debut album, Ólafur and Janus have been able to combine and further develop their unique sound aesthetics to complete an album driven by their mutual love for electronic music. Made in Ólafur’s newly build studio in Reykjavík, Iceland, a majority of the album was recorded using acoustic instruments next to a variety of synthesisers, drum machines and tape delays. It features a live drummer, string quartet and Ólafur performing on the grand piano, producing an ambient, textured sound, which makes it a perfect home listen and equally danceable record. If you listen closely, you can spot them record the thumb piano, finger snapping and even the sound of the metal grinder of a lighter slowly to replace the usual electronic hi-hat sounds, giving the album a far more intimate and unique atmosphere. “We decided to start almost completely over with this record, so most of the material is written this year with the idea of making a record that can stand as one piece rather than a collection of songs. I am very excited to get a proper record out exploring a different territory than I am used to. I touch a lot on electronic genres in my own music but never have the opportunity to go full out electronic like we do here.” – Ólafur Arnalds “The Kiasmos project has been around since 2009, but because of all our other projects we never really got the time to sit down and write all the tracks we always wanted to. So when we early this year finally found the time to sit down and make a full length album there was so much we wanted to try out. The result surprised us a bit, it’s deeper and more emotional than we imagined it to be, but that’s the beauty of being able to make an album.” – Janus Rasmussen Artist Kiasmos (Ólafur Arnalds And Janus Rasmussen) Genre Rock And Pop Label Erased Tapes Buying Options 2LP Format 2LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings 01 Lit 02 Held 03 Looped 04 Swayed 05 Thrown 06 Dragged 07 Bent 08 Burnt Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Kiasmos (Ólafur Arnalds And Janus Rasmussen) and more from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View Kiasmos (Ólafur Arnalds And Janus Rasmussen) // Electronica | Erased Tapes | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 5th July 2024 £29.00 - £31.00 Select options Kiasmos (Ólafur Arnalds And Janus Rasmussen) // £29.00 - £31.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Erased Tapes Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 5th July 2024 Read More Select options View Product Quick View FFS FFS Rock And Pop | Domino | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 3rd June 2015 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders FFS FFS £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Domino SKU: WIGLP349 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 3rd June 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Queen Queen Rock Montreal Rock And Pop | EMI | 3LP Released 10th May 2024 £43.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Queen Queen Rock Montreal £43.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: EMI SKU: 5832563 Formats: 3LP Released Date: 10th May 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jezabels, The Synthia Rock And Pop | Jezabels Pty | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 8th February 2016 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jezabels, The Synthia £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Jezabels Pty SKU: JEZ005V Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 8th February 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Staves, The Blood I Bled Rock And Pop | Atlantic | 10", EP/Mini Album Released 27th October 2014 £10.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Staves, The Blood I Bled £10.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Atlantic SKU: 2564621258 Formats: 10", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 27th October 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Libertines, The Up The Bracket Rock And Pop | Rough Trade | 1LP Released 21st October 2002 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Libertines, The Up The Bracket £17.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Rough Trade SKU: RTRADELP065 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 21st October 2002 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Westerman An Inbuilt Fault Rock And Pop | Partisan / Play It Again Sam | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 5th May 2023 £21.00 - £23.00 Select options Westerman An Inbuilt Fault £21.00 - £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Partisan / Play It Again Sam Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 5th May 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Daryl Hall & John Oates Marigold Sky – 25th Anniversary Rock And Pop | BMG | 2LP Released 25th March 2022 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Daryl Hall & John Oates Marigold Sky – 25th Anniversary £25.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: BMG SKU: 4050538762600 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 25th March 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Vaccines, The English Graffiti Rock And Pop | Columbia | 1LP, Includes CD Released 21st May 2015 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Vaccines, The English Graffiti £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Columbia SKU: 88875083851 Formats: 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 21st May 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Crosby, Stills and Nash Daylight Again (Atlantic 75 Series) Rock And Pop | Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released 25th December 2025 £75.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Crosby, Stills and Nash Daylight Again (Atlantic 75 Series) £75.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) SKU: AAPA 022-45 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 25th December 2025 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Pacific Breeze Volume 3 : Japanese City Pop, AOR & Boogie 1975-1987 Rock And Pop | Light In The Attic | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 24th February 2023 £44.00 - £47.00 Select options Various Artists Pacific Breeze Volume 3 : Japanese City Pop, AOR & Boogie 1975-1987 £44.00 - £47.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Light In The Attic Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 24th February 2023 Read More Select options See more in Rock And Pop Start again
