 Icelandic artist and musician Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson is known not only for his work with Stilluppsteypa but also numerous solo albums and collaborations with Swedish composer BJ Nilsen as well as several other artists.
 On ‘Into The Second Half’, his new solo album, recorded in 2022, Sigmarsson takes the listener into a calming yet mysterious world of sound. Starting from almost silence he creates a different state of listening that we could only find elsewhere when concerned with works of Robert Ashley.
 Carefully composed textures as subtle as the changes of light in the forbidden zone in Andrei Tarkovsky’s ‘Stalker’ weave in and out of each other to make for a hypnotic ride.
 The cover and label photos were taken by Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson.
 Mastered for vinyl by Jim O’Rourke.
