RELEASE DATE

"First release outside of his homeland for Iceland's Stafrann Hakon, centered around the majestic soundscapes of Olafur Josephsson, a young man with incredible talent and a big future.
Skvettir Edik A Ref
doesn't represent his recording debut, but it certainly announces his arrival on the international scene in a grand style. This is the first of two Stafrann albums to be released in 2003 on Resonant (
I Astaandi RJ Punnar
follows) and collectively they form the finest body of work in the post-rock genre in years. That said, to pigeonhole Stafrann's work as post-rock doesn't even tell half the story. Bringing to mind Labradford. Tarentel or an instrumental Sigur Ros, his music is epic, incredibly emotive and atmospheric -- and though the component parts tread a fairly familiar path, the end product is anything but formulaic."
