There’s a new band on the block and its transporting intrepid listeners to the future by way of 1980s Russia and modern day Iceland, Germany and Norway.
Introducing Ultraflex…
Ultraflex is a collaboration between Norwegian musician Farao and Reykjavik’s own Katrín Helga Andrésdóttir—well known for her solo project Special-K and as a member of Reykjavíkurdætur. Their first album is set to be released later this year under the Berlin-based Street Pulse record label.
Today Ultraflex dropped its debut track Olympic Sweat, a synth-heavy dance track accompanied by an aerobics-inspired music video.
So get that old-school Soviet physique whilst enjoying Iceland’s freshest “futuristic boogie” offering:
Top tip – keep your eyes peeled for an interview with Katrín Helga Andrésdóttir about her solo project Special-K in our upcoming web issue.
Note: Due to the effect the Coronavirus is having on tourism in Iceland, it’s become increasingly difficult for the Grapevine to survive. If you enjoy our content and want to help the Grapevine’s journalists do things like eat and pay rent, please consider joining our High Five Club.
