Last year Janus Rasmussen made the bold and exciting step of starting his own solo-career after being part of the successful Kiasmos together with Ólafur Arnalds. Both musicians and producers were responsible for one of our all-time favourite electronic albums with their self-titled debut. Luckily, Janus Rasmussen is keeping that same sound and vibe alive in his solo project. After delivering his debut “Vín” last year, Rasmussen is luckily already back releasing new material!

First new single was the ready for the dancefloor tune “Jörð“, but now Janus Rasmussen is slowing things down a bit and ready for introspection. New single “Blóð” (meaning blood in Icelandic) is a perfect continuation of the Kiasmos soundscape we adore. It’s filled with enthralling acoustic sounds mixed with minimal techno. It’s soft, subtle and heartwarming, yet still keeping a little groove to it.

The new single also comes with a stunning video by Icelandic – based photographer Benjamin Hardman. Lifting the song to new heights with beautiful scenes filmed a the Faroe Islands. Check it out now below!
