Jónsi - Paradiso, Amsterdam 02.06.2010 Sbd - Re Master












Jónsi - Paradiso, Amsterdam 02.06.2010 Sbd - Re Master

Another superb sounding concert from Jónsi. In some ways the best we have yet. Stunning - see for yourself! :) *I would like to recommend always to start listening to any re-masters on these blogs with your EQ set to 'flat' or 'off' and then changing it as you wish in dependence on your personal set up* I usually master them to sound as intended with no EQ. This then, hopefully, gives you as plenty of scope to then adjust your EQ to your own preferred type of sound.


Set List:

01 Stars In Still Water
02 Hengilás
03 Icicle Sleeves
04 Kolniður
05 'Vibraphone Song'
06 Tornado
07 Sinking Friendships
08 St Naive
09 Go Do
10 Boy Lilikoi
11 New Piano Song
12 Un-named New Piano Song
13 Around Us
14 Animal Arithmetic
15 Grow Till Tall

The Greenland Choir - We Shall Indeed Turn Dizzy Then...[EP]




















The Greenland Choir - We Shall Indeed Turn Dizzy Then...[EP]

I can't tell you happy I am to finally post this wonderful piece of music.
Its the happiest, most innocent, pure, interesting, summer record I have heard in a looooong time. I just love it. Its so rare to find such delicate and positively happy music...
What I love most about it is how it evokes so many memories of fun childhood adventures, the type of innocent adventures that as an adult, this music reminded me I had forgotten ! So thanks to the Greenland Choir for bringing back so many memories of times long buried in the business of life.
Oh, by the way, did I tell you I loved it? There are still some lovely hand made hard copies to be had. Please visit their myspace page for details.
