Iceland’s volcanoes have always served as a potent source of inspiration for artists Ben Frost and Francesco Fabris. Through a series of intense close-mic’d recordings, Frost and Fabris have managed to capture the raw and violent essence of these geological wonders. By magnifying and amplifying the soundscapes, they reveal the true nature of geologic time and the unstable power it holds.

While Frost is primarily known for his work as a soundtrack composer, his collaboration with interdisciplinary sound artist Fabris on the ‘Dark’ OST showcased his propensity for pushing musical boundaries. Their latest endeavor delves even deeper into experimental rock music, capturing the actual sound of molten material seething beneath the Earth’s surface and solidifying. Drawing artistic inspiration from the likes of Chris Watson, Jana Winderen, and Giuseppe Ielasi, Frost and Fabris fearlessly explore the biting edge of nature, employing various production techniques to make audible the very essence of our planet’s creation. Their recordings were made on location at Fagradalsfjall, Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland.

Label boss Lawrence English weighs in on their groundbreaking work, emphasizing that despite the surface stability we perceive, our planet is a tumultuous and ever-changing entity. The thin crust we inhabit belies a seismically active core, constantly in motion and capable of immense power. Volcanic eruptions offer glimpses into this core, where destruction and creation intertwine to form primordial landscapes. Fabris and Frost’s album Vakning captures these ruptures in all their raw essence, showcasing the living geology of our planet. These close-range recordings unveil moments of transformation, obliterating and creating simultaneously. They offer a glimpse into the dynamic and unrestrained nature of a living, material planet.

Frost and Fabris have embarked on a musical journey that unveils the hidden symphonies of Iceland’s volcanoes. Through their audacious approach to recording and production, they have managed to encapsulate the very essence of geologic time. Their album Vakning stands as a testament to the raw power and creative force that lies within the Earth, making audible the invisible and allowing us to witness the birth and destruction of landscapes in a truly captivating way. The influence of artists like Watson, Winderen, and Ielasi can be felt in Frost and Fabris’ work, as they bring a fresh perspective to the sounds of nature’s untamed creation.
