Another week, another brand new cycle of 66 Degrees of Sound, our podcast highlighting new music and events in Iceland. This week kicks off this week with an artist spotlight on Dustin O’Halloran, the renown American pianist, producer, and composer who now lives in Iceland.
Dustin released his latest solo album 1 0 0 1 on March 22 along with the video single “Spiritus Naturae Aeternus”, featuring a spellbinding choreography and performance by dancer Fukiko Takase.
We sat down with him for a buoyant and insightful discussion about his new release, the way the ideas took form and placed themselves in context, the nature of humanity and the role of artistry alongside the rise of AI, and just some good ol’ fashioned banter. Due to some technical issues, the interview is conducted solely by Jói in this episode, with Rex takin’ care of business in the wings.
Watch the video for Dustin O'Halloran's “Spiritus Naturae Aeternus ", released on January 31.
