“I was listening to this as our plane descended into Baltimore at sunset... Blue above the cloud layer, orange underneath, one of those impossibly perfect scenes. Highly recommend the whole album.”

“Exquisitely haunting mix of classical orchestration and electronics, this whole album is like a eulogy for us composed by machines.”

“At once breathtakingly vast and intimately expressive, Part 1 of Johann Johnannsson's epic experiment conjures up far more than the sterile, vintage mainframe of its title -- perhaps it is a meditation on man's relationship to machine?”

“Sweepingly emotional and devastatingly epic, this is a modern classical track to WOW even your grandparents and jumpstart anyone who thinks nothing new is good these days.”

“I have a personal policy of buying any albums by artists with more than one diacritical mark in their name. Fortunately it's working out a lot better this time than it did with my most recent Mötley Crüe album.”

“Ethereal and fragile, Johannsson's sound is typically Icelandic. Odi Et Amo's frozen soundscape and vocoded vocals combine in sad, beautiful ways. ”

“Simple, haunting, beautiful. Johan Johannsson is truely a master”
