Description

Teknó eigur lívið í mær

1. Teknó eigur lívið í mær (English: Techno Owns the Life in Me)
‘It’s anti-music…’ someone said, and for some reason those words stuck with me. They captured the feeling I had while making it—a Faroese techno anthem with a sprinkle of acid, made in a country where the acoustic guitar has become the epitome of ‘proper’ music… when all you really want is some techno. Teknó eigur lívið í mær marks his first release in six years and is the first time he releases on Tutl Records.

2. Paradís (Tareq Remix)
Back in 2022, Tareq—one half of the DJ/production duo Boys’ Shorts—remixed this track. We first connected online, and as I got to know his music, he asked if he could remix my 2019 track Paradís. Of course, I couldn’t say no. The result? A banger. An energetic remix driven by a bassline that carries the track forward—it finally felt right to release it alongside Teknó eigur lívið í mær.

Remix: Tareq Souleiman

Gongur tú fullur?
Gongur tú eftir vegnum?
Hvar ert tú á veg?

Gongur tú í regninum?
Gongur tú eftir vegnum til paradís?

Gongur tú ígjøgnum ódnir?
gongur tú gjøgnum dalar?
Hvar ert tú á veg?

Gongur tú í mjørkanum?
Gongur tú eftir vegnum til paradís?

Words & music: Dan Helgi í Gong
Remix: Tareq Souleiman

Are you drunk?
Are you walking down the road?
Where are you headed?

Are you walking in the rain?
Are you walking down the road to paradise?

Are you walking through storms?
Are you walking through valleys?
Where are you headed?

Are you walking in the fog?
Are you walking down the road to paradise?
