Audiopile Review: With a few EPs already under her belt, Icelandic producer Sunna Margrét makes a splash with her debut full length, Finger On Tongue, an exciting hit of electro-pop with an experimental slant. A comparison frequently made elsewhere is the the futuristic vision of her Icelandic compatriot, Björk, but this actually comes closer to the boundary-pushing synth-pop of The Knife. With her vocals set as the emotive core of the album, ably flipping from yearning chanteuse, spoken word intimacy and robotic iciness, Margrét plays with her voice as a malleable instrument that can jump around stylistically to fit her varied production. The blown-speaker dream-pop of “Chocolate”, the Actress-like digital-skip of “Hibiscus and the ASMR soundscrape of “I’ve Been Drinking” are just a few of the zones she inhabits, a delirious blending of dark-pop intrigue. One to watch!

Icelandic musician and visual artist Sunna Margrét is set to release her debut full-length album, Finger on Tongue, via No Salad Records on March 28th. Citing influences from krautrock legends CAN and Neu!, outsider synth pop artist The Space Lady and electronic music pioneers Suzanne Ciani and Eliane Radigue, Finger on Tongue is a masterclass in experimental pop, capturing an authentic Icelandic essence through its electronic and spellbinding sounds. Some tracks offer softness and peace while others invite you to dance, and the album homogeneity is precisely ensured by the rigorous approach to writing.
