makes music from the ends of the earth.
* I guess it all began with adventuring with tapes and things I had no idea how to do, but having a itch to scratch and a gap in my mind record collection that had to be filled…

Sketches for Albinos music comes off as a sort of photo album, or sketchbook if you will.

Camped out somewhere in deepest, iciest Iceland Sketches for Albinos makes music from the ends of the earth. He who was swallowed in nihility scratched at tape as if he totally filled his mind, and all began from what record it. Making the tape, the music of Sketches for Albinos born from the process that he records an indistinct thing of this world moves your feelings as a sort of photograph album
and a sketchbook by what you listen to.

Fleeting moments… Leftover breeze at the end of a storm… With a cold tone, there are verwhelmingly warmth and beauty will give a wavering to anyone’s emotion. The quiet and calm, and strongly even echoed coldest sound !
