Details:

“Bedroom Community (whose last release was Ben Frost’s By the Throat), has shown remarkable prescience in choosing this album as its first release of 2010. The year may be in its infancy, but to this reviewer, Processions is already the one to beat.”—The Silent Ballet

“Daníel Bjarnason’s music is so intelligently crafted, it makes you want to pause the concert every second and look at a score. At the same time, the craft whizzes by organically, and you don’t have enough time to pause and contemplate. [...] His album is just a small peek into the life of his mind”. —Nico Muhly
