艺人介绍

Mugison来自冰岛fjords以西一个叫做isafjordur的边远小镇。如果你有一张冰岛地图的话,你会看到isafjordur就在你左手边最上方延伸出去的那一块,距北极仅需一天的水路航程。在少年时代,他曾工作于渔船、鱼厂和港口(他的爸爸是isafjordur的港口老板),而後他离开isafjordur来到伦敦学习音乐。再而後,自己尝试录制唱片,再再而後,顺理成章的发表唱片:2003年在Lifelike旗下发表处子作“lonely mountain”,此唱片手工缝制(注意是缝制),限量10,000张;2004年闲暇时间录制作品两张:分别为为fridrik thor fridrikkson的电影'niceland'所作的原声,以及一张名为'patrick swayze'的唱片。

Iceland's Mugison (aka Örn Elías Guðmundsson) makes music that ranges from gentle laptop pop to heavy, flamboyant rock. Mugison was given his nickname on a visit to his dad, Muggi, in Malaysia, and began recording songs on his laptop in 2001. After moving to London, he worked with a DJ on the whimsical glitch-pop songs that became 2003's Lonely Mountain, which was released on Matthew Herbert's Accidental label. That year, Mugison and his father founded the Aldrei Fór Ég Sudur (AFS) festival, and Mugison recorded the soundtrack to Fridrik Thor Fridriksson's 2004 film Niceland in a church in his hometown, Isafjordur, then settled in Sudavik before the release of his 2005 album, Mugimama, Is This Monkey Music?, which won five Icelandic Music Awards that year, including Album of the Year and Song of the Year for "Murr, Murr." The album's eclectic, sometimes carnivalesque sound made fans out of Super Furry Animals, Fantômas, and Ghostigital, all of whom invited Mugison as support on their tours. For his next album, Mugison went in a heavier, more organic direction, trading electronics for more bandmembers and cranked-up guitars. Mugiboogie was first released in 2007, and issued in the U.S. via Ipecac in 2008.
