Seabear perform Cat Piano live in their Reykjavik studio

Seabear run through Cat Piano in their recording studio in Reykjavik. What you
see is the first of two takes as Sindri realizes during playback that the drums
drown out everything in the mix. Inga’s hip to it though and cuts to the chase
asking how it sounds on the camera. Keep a look out for their second take in
which they nix the drums and add piano. Shot and edited by Stuart Rogers.

This morning, Aussie ex-pat Stu Rogers joined you on Triple J’s Mornings with Zan to walk us through some of the new sounds coming from one very prolific musical nation. Iceland only has a population of around 300,000, but produces a huge amount of big and small name bands making wonderful music. We hear from Sigur rós, Björk and Múm, but what about the others that are making waves in the northern hemisphere? If you missed Stu’s 101 on Icelandic Music this morning, stream it above on demand. Here’s what we sampled musically too…

FM Belfast - Synthia - unreleased demo from how to make friends
Seabear - Arms - The Ghost That Carried Us Away
Hjaltalin - Traffic Music - Sleepdrunk Seasons
Jakobinarina - This Is An Advertisement - The First Crusade
Ólöf Arnalds - Klara - Við og Við
