Rúnar Magnússon

Icelandic sound artist Rúnar Magnússon has been creating adventurous and imaged music for 15 years. Magnússon’s roots lie deeply imbedded in field recordings, nature sounds, sound collages, and secret recordings of the people and places around him.

Icelandic sound artist Rúnar Magnússon has been creating adventurous and imaged music for 15 years. Magnússon’s roots lie deeply imbedded in field recordings, nature sounds, sound collages, and secret recordings of the people and places around him. Magnússon’s work has been described with terms such as electro-acoustic, experimental, and sound art but it still manages to remain eclectic and versatile. In 1994, Magnusson and fellow icelander Petur Eyvindsson formed the duo Vindva Mei. Vindva Mei has been referred to, by the Icelandic media, as both the ‘secret duo’ and ‘the schizophrenic duo’ due to their rare performances and inherent creative polarity. Magnússon is conceptual and abstract while Eyvindsson tends to be more rhythmic and accessible. Vindva Mei has released three cd’s, but their collaboration has become more static since Magnússon moved to Denmark in 1996, where he currently is completing a masters degree in Electronic Music at The Danish Institute for Electronic Music at The Royal Conservatory in Aarhus. In the meantime, Magnússon has released three solo albums, one online release on the Noisejihad label, works on an ongoing collaboration of generative music with Icelandic artist Thor Magnússon entitled SameSameButDifferent and continues to write music for theatre plays and dance performances. Magnússon recently started to work with surround sound and has played several concerts using multiple speakers in churches, theaters and museums.
Magnússon’s music is a pantheon to conceptual electronica; he writes tender ballads decorated in natural imagery; landscape art still purposeful and direct. Magnússon’s music builds monuments then destroys them with bravery, cognition and a level of control rarely found.
Magnússon´s latest project is the duo Alien UFO with fellow Icelander Helgi Thorsson of Stilluppsteypa and Evil Madness. Their debut will soon be released as a 3” cd on Lona Records in Hong Kong.
