As a global electronic music family, we come together in hopes that our words will do justice to honor the beautiful soul that was Árni Grétar Jóhannesson (Futuregrapher). Written by Anne Jackson with support by Mick Chillage.

Igloo Magazine :: Best of 2024
Highlighting hundreds of releases in 2024 (and allowing December to set in), we’ve compiled a list of our favorites along with links to their corresponding Igloo reviews and release pages. Since the lists are arranged alphabetically by artist—and a snapshot of tracks are featured in our Soundcloud playlist along with selected Bandcamp tracks and random artwork selections—there are, as usual, no winners or runners-up.
Parallel Worlds :: Impressions (Móatún 7)
Parallel Worlds’ Impressions is another high-caliber album that is definitely worth listening to with its tendency toward darker tones and cinematic caliber.
Ian Boddy :: 25 Years of DiN
“The DiN ambient label was set up by Ian Boddy in 1999 to release ambient electronica that bridged the gap between the analogue sound of the early 70’s synth pioneers and the digital soundscapes of the more experimental modern exponents of electronic music.” Now celebrating their 25th Anniversary with a colossal 20 track compilation (CD/Digital), Ian Boddy discusses the label and its history with Philippe Blache.
V/A :: 25 Years of DiN (DiN)
With versality, skills, and a delectable sense of transcendental escapism, every musical contribution brings tone textures, patterns, timbral experimentations, harmonic progressions, and processed sound motifs to ravish your ears.
Parallel Worlds :: Artiphon (Móatún 7)
Artiphon, the most recent release from prolific experimental sound designer Parallel Worlds (aka Bakis Sirros), features several peaks and valleys of dark ambient strands.
Parallel Worlds :: Fragmented (DiN)
Listening further and more closely, I perceived that Fragmented sounds more contemporary—the music has an industrial edge. The album has a tasteful minimalist quality as does much of Cluster, but it sounds more relentless and more driven in pace.
The World of Futuregrapher of Móatún 7 :: Árni Grétar
Móatún 7 — connecting the links between the music and the label that has embraced artists who have brought us sublime listening experiences in electronic music.
Parallel Worlds :: Applied Maths (Móatún 7)
The ingenuity of Bakis Sirros pervades this album in its entirety—a dark ambient masterpiece that unfolds with continuous soundscapes, allowing for a sublime listening experience.
