Án Mynda EP (2015) "This release is called "Án Mynda", which is the icelandic translation of "without form" or "without generation". The concept explores the process that takes place between the beginning of a new life experience and the outcome once it has passed. It is the moment right before falling in love, weighing your conscience, life and death, success and failure. That space between your thoughts and expressions, your apprehension and spontaneity. It is that instance that occurs just before your moral ideas take shape and become your character. In these moments, we are without form.
