Jónsi “Go Do”
9 Feb
Sigur Rós frontman, Jónsi, will be releasing his solo album, Go later this spring. If you recall, back in December, Jónsi gave away the gorgeous first single from Go, “Boy Lilikoi“, which you can still download if you follow that link.
The sunny and lively musical arrangements on Go are credited to Nico Muhly, who worked with Grizzly Bear on the gorgeous arrangements on Veckatimest; he is also responsible for the arrangements on Antony & The Johnsons’ The Crying Light. Jónsi and Nico’s brainchildren are a dream to listen to. “Go Do”, the latest one to sprout out, is cacophony of banging drums and other rattling percussion that is being lifted by the light and subtle beauty of a flute; it epitomizes the coming of Spring. So then it makes perfect sense that Jónsi will be releasing a Go Do EP on March 15th, a month prior to Go‘s release. I really can’t think of a better way to usher in spring.

@pmablog how random I just heard this song on the radio today. I tried to Shazam it but there was no info on it. I really like it.

@pmablog I’ve been listening to BBC Radio 1 a lot recently on XM radio. Other than that I listen to a local 80s 90s and now station.

Wow. Sigur Ros is unfuckingbelievable, and Jonsi’s solo effort adds a much happier/poppier element, so it’s pretty much impossible that this album will disappoint me.
