It seems like the term Neo-Classic is on everyones lips today. Altough many people have heard of this special genre, most of them only regard it as background music without bothering about what's really hidden behind. To show the world that this beautiful music is much more than only a background soundtrack, NBHAP editor Miriam Wallbaum decided to talk to two Neo-Classic pioneers about the scene: Germany's Martin Kohlstedt and Iceland's Ólafur Arnalds.
The debut of the Icelandic folk artist amazes with crystalline clarity and heartfelt expression. This might just be the folk happening of the year and is yet another proof of the intimate and delicate craft Arny Margret is capable of delivering. Along with a bunch of songs off her stunning LP, our freshly "Introducing" playlist features other new tracks from artists like Portland, Sophie Jamieson and more.
