Collaboration and community have shaped the musical life of songwriter and musician Bjarni

Daníel, who grew up in Reykjavík and has deep roots in the city's vibrant music scene. As a

member of bands such as Supersport!, Skoffín and bagdad brothers, his voice has become

synonymous with the ideals of the local DIT (do-it-together) movement, spearheaded by the music

and art collective Post-dreifing.

Bjarni Daníel's compositions display a penchant for rawness and vulnerability, as evident on "the

bull's eye" – an exclusive Bandcamp release. This collection includes numerous musical ideas in

their simplest forms, mostly recorded with Bjarni's cell phone in the raw moments of their creation.

He is currently working on his debut solo album, which will be produced by Bjarni's longtime friend

and collaborator Árni Hjörvar Árnason, a member of British indie icons The Vaccines. “DÍSEL” the

title track and first single off the upcoming album was released in may.
