Here’s a rad new video just in from our Icelandic brother, Úlfur (the artist formerly known as Klive). Video directed by Máni M. Sigfússon

Úlfur is somewhat of a prodigy and it seems he has been busy doing all sorts of fun things – taking Sound workshops (“There are vibrations in everything, that in and of it self is a crazy enough concept to spark a religion.”), writing for orchestras, even for boats!! And alot more which you can check out on his excellent website > ulfurhansson.com

& this thing looks amazing… the OHM!


“The OHM is an electromagnetic harp i’ve been working on for the past year. Utilizing 13 hand woven magnetic actuators that feedback through 26 strings on the inside, the OHM is a completely acoustic electronic instrument. The instrument has a very characteristic tone and timbre. Controlled either via OSC (open sound control) through a USB cable, or by the capacitive touch keyboard on the front panel – so you can feel the object vibrate in your hands while playing it. Future versions will allow any audio signal to be routed through the strings for a completely acoustic “string reverb” effect.”

Stoked to see Úlfur’s latest album, White Mountain, has now been released on vinyl too! It’s a really good one. Here’s another track from it (note the download option : )

Thanks Úlfur!!
