Black Mirror - Hang the DJ

BerkianWarrior 2018-01-10 21:53:44 UTC #1

Okay...
Wikipedia needs to get on its game and Sigur Ros too... Cause how the heck can they score a full episode of a huge Netflix show and me not no a thing about it? Im watching this episode 'Hang the DJ' and thinking "Damn this score is good" and "Damn those high ghostly vocals sound a lot like Jonsi".

They just announced it today. It came out as Alex Somers with Sigur Ros.

It officially released on December 30 though. I didn't know about it either until I saw their facebook post today.

i was watching the episode with my girlfriend and partway through mentioned to her how good i thought the soundtrack was. then came some very orri-sounding drumming. and then some very jónsi-sounding singing.
well, that explains why i thought the music was so good, i thought.

Amazing, they never cease to amaze me. Just genius.

yeah out since december 30th on spotify etc. - we delayed announcing it after that so it wouldn't get lost in with norður og niður stuff - was hoping to announce it last week, but alas not - anyhoo out there now!

And FYI... for those who order from the states (as I haven't found a shop in the US that has it yet...), Amazon and Rough Trade (and it appears Piccadilly Records too!) don't charge the VAT.

Alex_Lungley 2018-07-05 14:30:40 UTC #15

Limited to 250 blue vinyl of hang the dj is now available at the Invada Records web shop.

Dammit, so busy at work I missed this. Have to make do with the white vinyl, if they stop delaying it.

It’s pretty damn lovely being unemployed, gotta say!
