"Whether Bjork and Sigur Ros, Amiina and Mum, it's fair to say that a lot of forward thinking musicians thrive within the borders of Iceland... with Happens Secretly Kippi Kaninus may well step out of those shadows into his own beautifully formed niche." - Drowned In Sound
"Minimal and glacial electronica as sparse as a deserted forest and about twice as atmospheric... a sedate and intellectual affair that deserves attentive ears." - Clash Magazine "if like me, you like electronica, then, like me, you'll probably find that it's simply impossible to resist the charms of electronica from Iceland. I don't know what it is, but those Icelanders are particularly talented at making stunning, warm and yet cold, digital soundscapes. Kippi Kaninis is no different." - God Is In The TV "A rewarding piece of work that should appeal to lovers of weird and strangely hypnotic music." - The Music Fix "Mesmerising textures and moments of real beauty... it takes it's time to find it's way into your affections - but it will get there, trust me." - The Beat Surrender "Kippi Kaninus is one of the few artists who seems to have a pure connection to his music and as a result, you're able to tap into whatever vibes he's trying to put out." - In The News |

  "This week's mix comes from enigmatic electronica/folky experimentalist Kippi Kaninus. Hailing from Iceland, Kippi has been quietly crafting his weird and wonderful tunes since 2001, and describes his music as "fast, slow, theatrical, absurd, beaty, cheerful". It is all of those things and much more. In fact, it's a far better example of folktronica - as in the literal blending of traditional folk music and electronica - than pretty much anyone else who's been labelled as such." |
