I haven't done an electronica post in a while so why not drop some good old Múm on this seldom perused and somewhat delinquent (or senile or delusional) attic of the internet where I talk to myself. Múm has for five years been my favorite band which is to say my favorite project that is the unified work of several minds rather than one... for the solitary mind crafting music the going gets a lot rougher for the coveted 'favorite' status. I just dug up a video by Múm that I hadn't seen before. It's for their song "The Island of Children's Children" from the album Summer Make Good. If you haven't enjoyed Múm before, start at the beginning of their impressive discography and work your way through. Their first record was the staggering Finally We Are No One, released in 1999. It is fair to say that it changed my life. And no post about Múm would be complete without mentioning the beautiful fact that(white people pay attention, i know you'll love this) they are from Iceland, home of natural majesty, the world's sixth largest gnp per capita, and many of the greatest bands known to ethereal music.
