Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : JFDR

jfdr arbeitete mit kollegen wie olafur arnalds und damien rice zusammen, vertonte den preisgekrönten isländischen film backyard village und wird von björk als inspiration verehrt.

for this ep, jófríður Ákadóttir has re-recorded some of the finest songs from her bands and solo-projects (jfdr, samaris, pascal pinon) with new string arrangements. these versions have a simple, inherent beauty that is juxtaposed with their seething, stark intensity.
to replace the original arrangements with strings was originally planned as a one-off event: when preparing a pascal pinon performance in portugal, jófríður asked nyc-based composer ian davis to help her re-arrange four tracks. after the show jófríður realized that the material deserved to be captured.

10 reworks of tracks from the “penelope two” album by penelope trappes.
