NEVERSHREDDALONESOUNDS #2 ISLAND EDITION
FRIDAY, 07 DECEMBER 2012 15:19


 Fernsehn macht doof - Musik nich! 

Unsere Ausgabe #2 der NevershreddaloneSounds kommt diesmal aus Island! Atli Bollason ist 27 und lebt in Reykjavik! Island ist, wie viele von euch wissen nicht nur ziemlich klein sondern auch ziemlich kreativ! Ob nun Björk oder Nikita, oder was uns ja am meisten flashed, die Helgasons, welche der Snowboardindustrie einen völlig neuen Spirit gaben! Was aus Island zu uns schwabt ist im normal Fall richtig gut und fresh!  

Atlis Podcast trägt den Arbeitstitel SOLARIS SUN GLAZE und ballert und ziemlich  abgefahrene und "shreddable" Sounds in die Lauscher. 

 Glitchhop, Haze und Skwee sind Musikrichtungen die sich selbst in Berlin noch tief im  Underground bewegen! Die Energie dieser Stile ist aber derbstens! DICKE BEATS,  Schräge Sounds, kühle aber sonnige Flächen bringen den Podcast über die Ohren in  die Beine direkt aufs Brett! Ich persönlich höre da viel RAILS oder derbe Kicker aber  auf jedenfall SONNE!! 

 Anbei ein kurzes aber unnötiges INTERVIEW: 

  • yo!

    sweet

    I'm on Skype right now

    and for the next hour or so

    • Nico Nitsche

      cool wie can do it here too if you like

      • Nico Nitsche

        ARE YOU neröse?

        • Atli Bollason

          haha

          i'm chill

          • Nico Nitsche

            nice

            i listen to your mix some around 5 times by now!

            • Nico Nitsche

              you was stoned as you work on it right? 

              • Atli Bollason

                funny you should ask... some parts of the mix are actually older ideas, and I guess I was stoned when I worked on some of those. But mostly I was sober -- I didn't want to get to lost in the details, if you know what I mean.

                • Nico Nitsche

                  yeah i know what you mean! is Glitchhop and co big in Island?

                  • Atli Bollason

                    I wouldn't really say so. I first got into this shit through some of the stuff on Warp Records many years ago, Prefuse 73 and Flying Lotus, and then I heard about this micro-genre called skweee. Most of that music is actually coming out of Sweden and Finland, but I was living in Canada when I got into it.

                    • Atli Bollason

                      I just really like these broken beats that you don't really know if you can dance to or not.

                      • Nico Nitsche

                        can you dance?

                        • Atli Bollason

                          I fucking love dancing. Just losing my shit, waving my fingers in the air, putting on a nasty face and grooving to the music. That's why I love Berlin. People don't really dance in Reykjavík

                          • Nico Nitsche

                            really what they do instead?

                            • Atli Bollason

                              Stand around in their winter coat with a beer in their hand, looking at girls.

                              • Nico Nitsche

                                and the girls looking at the girls too??? 

                                • Nico Nitsche

                                  please say naked:D

                                  • Atli Bollason

                                    unfortunately it's a bit too cold for that!

                                    • Nico Nitsche

                                      how cold is it at the moment in Rekjavik

                                      and do you get some snow

                                      • Atli Bollason

                                        oh, not bad. four degrees maybe. But it's raining and really dark. In the city we usually don't see too much snow, no.

                                        I prefer the snow though

                                        I hate the rain

                                        and the wind

                                        • Nico Nitsche

                                          did you do some research about hartekante before you do the podcast? its okay when you say no 

                                          • Atli Bollason

                                            haha... I checked out your links and did some googling, yes!

                                            • Nico Nitsche

                                              does it help you?

                                              its okay when you say no 

                                              • Atli Bollason

                                                I think to get me thinking about how I see snowboarding types. For some reason I often associate hip-hop style beats with snowboarding -- does that make sense?

                                                • Nico Nitsche

                                                  yeah for sure and its a pretty nice thought!!

                                                  • Atli Bollason

                                                    I figured you had enough techno and house going on in Berlin...

                                                    • Nico Nitsche

                                                      but may you know the helgasons and they are pretty much more like your beats

                                                      true! but our crew is more down south in the middle of germany and there is a lot of hiphop goin on

                                                      but the good thing about snowboarding is its pretty free and in the end everybody listen to a lot of different music while the shredd!

                                                      • Atli Bollason

                                                        that's how it should be!

                                                        • Nico Nitsche
