Many congrats to Jóhann Jóhannsson for his Golden Globe Award for the soundtrack to The Theory of Everything… Apart from releasing the two albums Englabörn and Virthulegu Forsetar, it was Jóhann who recommended Hildur Guðnadóttir to Touch, so there is a strong affinity…
Jóhann’s soundtrack with BJNilsen for the film I Am Here is just out on vinyl (with free download)
