Iceland
11:00 - 13:00

In Iceland, Thomas Stankiewicz contemplates the constant flux of the elements. A composer & musician in his own right, he selectively weaves in between soundtracks, classical music, and evocative ambient sounds, symphonically unveiling untold stories from past and future… @tommmasi

COTONOU
12:00 - 14:00

Based in Cotonou, Benin, which at the time was referred to as Dahomey, Albarika Records was founded by the French-born, Benin-based producer and entrepreneur, Emmanuel "Manu" Dibango, who had a significant influence on the local music scene. The label was instrumental in releasing records from some of the region's most prominent musicians during the golden age of African music. Many of the artists signed to Albarika Records were known for blending indigenous African rhythms with Western jazz, funk, and soul influences. This made their sound distinctive and part of a broader movement across West Africa during the 60s and 70s, as music became a form of social and political expression.

Ginnungagap

Ginnungagap

Ginnungagap has been played on NTS shows including The Witching Hour, with Duel Ravens first played on 7 December 2017.

There are three known groups named Ginnungagap.

The first is a hardcore punk from Prague, Czech Republic. The unit released a 12" LP in 2017 called Nejsi Vítěz (You are not a winner).

The second and still active Ginnungagap is an ambient side-project from Seattle, Washington, United States of Stephen O'Malley (Sunn O))), Lotus Eaters, Khanate, among others) formed in 2002. The music is a less guitar oriented version of drone, utilizing many middle and far eastern instruments and keys. Guest musicians such as Dawn Smithson, Anthony Sylvester and Alexander Tucker have also appeared in some albums.

They have recorded two full-length albums and two EPs since 2004.

The third, starting in 1998 and ending in 2007, was the Ginnungagap choir, a young, Norwegian vocal ensemble consisting of sixteen singers between the ages of 20 and 30.

From the start in 1998 the group sought out new and exiting choral music. The choirs performances were wide ranging; they gave concerts in pubs and cathedrals, they appeared on national television several times, and they won choral competitions in Norway and abroad. Ginnungagap released two critically acclaimed CD's.
