Futuregrapher (aka ÃÂrni Grétar) is the co-founder of Möller Records and one of the leading members of Iceland's Weirdcore scene which aims to give a monthly live platform for local electronica artists.
He's not a man for grand gestures and not a lot happens on the pure drone-like ambience of first two tracks (Ringo Is High and Plasticry).
Muffled voices and the hint of a beat disturb the meditative state on the shortest track Dagur but the best of the four tracks comes through the darker, crackly textures of Memory Vallum where slow pulses create a creepy atmosphere.
This makes you think the cover image might just be a nod towards Kubrick's The Shining rather than just a shot of a cute kid on a tricycle.
