Description:

The legendary, highly acclaimed first album of Apparat Organ Quartet will be released on vinyl to mark its 20th anniversary this year. The self-titled Apparat Organ Quartet was originally released on CD, on Icelandic label Thule Musik and got rave reviews from around the world and with their unique blend of electronica, experimental music and stadium rock, they became a music festival favourite, performing on both sides of the Atlantic and Japan. With a stage full of old combo organs, synths and tangled cables, painstakingly playing every note by hand, Apparat Organ Quartet puts on show that you won’t easily forget: A wall of distorted organ sounds and drums, topped with romantic synth melodies and mechanical voices. Apparat Organ Quartet’s line-up included the late composer Jóhann Jóhannsson who also produced the record, along with current members Hörður Bragason, Arnar Geir Ómarsson, Sighvatur Ómar Kristinsson and Úlfur Eldjárn. They released their second album, Pólýfónía, in 2010. Apparat Organ Quartet will also be giving a special live performance, in their hometown of Reykjavík, on the 4th of November, where they will perform the entire record.
