David Tennant - Undone 3:36 Overview Standing at the intersection where techno meets classical music, Êlafur Arnalds directs the newest Late Night Tales, set for release on 24th June 2016. After releasing the breakthrough album ˜And They Have Escaped The Weight Of Darkness™, in 2014 he was awarded a BAFTA for best original music for the TV series Broadchurch. Arnalds™ music has a quietude that seems perfectly apposite and that™s evident here as each song drifts like an autumn wind towards the next. Arnalds has enlisted the help of a few of his countrymen for the journey out west  electronic bands Samaris and Hjaltalín  and just as his records manage to combine the experimentalism and adventure of electronic music with a classical sensibility, here he weaves them perfectly, using tracks like Koreless™ brilliant post-dubstep ˜Last Remnants™ alongside the enigmatic brilliance of Jai Paul. It™s a perfect musical landscape that is eerie yet beautiful, as on Odesza™s ˜How Did I Get Here™. As if Êlafur wasn™t spoiling us enough, he offers up three exclusives: his own ˜Kinesthesia I™ and ˜RGB™ and ˜Orgoned™ by his techno side project Kiasmos. Alongside that we have the obligatory cover version (Destiny™s Child™s ˜Say My Name™) and also a Late Night Tales debut for David Tennant, reading a story by Anam Sufi, with whom Êlafur worked on Broadchurch. šWhen I was asked to do the next installation of the Late Night Tales series I thought "This will be fun and easy, only a couple of days work. No problem!". Six months later, I was still pulling my hair out in some kind of quest to make the perfect mix. As someone who has never really done mixes before, I learned a lot of things along the way and the whole experience was very inspiring. I decided to approach the mix in a similar way as I would one of my scores. This is the soundtrack of my life. I included songs from many of my friends and collaborators and tried to deliver a mix that represents who I am as an artist and where my influences are coming from - both personally and musically.› - Êlafur Arnalds, March 2016 Buy!
