Slowblow

Slowblow is an Icelandic musical duo consisting of Orri Jónsson and Dagur Kári Pétursson, formed in the early 1990s.[1][2][3][4] Their music is an aesthetic of home-made, lo-fi analog tinkerings, which often slips into both electronic and folksy terrain. They began recording in the mid-1990s and have made several albums together. They created the soundtrack for the successful independent Icelandic movie Nói Albínói, which Dagur directed.[5] They have worked with other Icelandic artists such as former Múm band member Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttir, who provided vocals on the band's self-titled 2004 album, and Emilíana Torrini.[6] In 2009 the duo provided the music to the film The Good Heart. They have released albums under the Reykjavík based record labels Smekkleysa, Kitchen Motors, and Mobile / Plug.

gollark: In my livEGPS testing I determined that if you ran a few computers with GPS spoofing code on them you *could* mess up a decent fraction of GPS requests, but not reliably enough to completely control figured-out positions like you could with full control of all a dimension's servers.
gollark: The W is silent.
