Ólafur Arnald Releases Limited Edition Vinyl

• 22nd Jun 2012

Following on from Ólafur Arnalds’ critically acclaimed dance score 'Dyad 1909' (2009) for the internationally renowned choreographer Wayne McGregor, now comes 'Two Songs For Dance' – a limited edition 7″ vinyl that captures two exciting tracks from two contemporary dance projects.

The first 'Endalaus II' was created for 'Endalaus' by Norwegian choreographer Alan Lucien Øyen, commissioned and performed by the Iceland Dance Company. Fans will recognise the track as one of the highlights from Ólafur's recent live shows, creating an emotional punch against the classical strings. It's available for full stream as part of the Erased Tapes 5th Anniversary Tour playlist here:

'For Teda', the second song is for London-based company Neon Dance and part of choreographer Adrienne Hart's on-going project 'Archived'it'. It brings forward a new concept in online interaction by allowing anyone to create their own version of ‘Dance on Steps’, a dance film featuring dance and mime student Teda de Moor from 1934.
