Description: When I originally wrote re:member's closing track, nyepi, I intended it to be for a string quartet. But before I could record it I made a demo on my iPhone playing the song on piano and got very attached to that version. During our day in Linz my string quartet went down to the harbour area next to the venue and recorded the string version, beautifully arranged by Viktor Orri. Violins: Pétur Björnsson & Sigrún Harðardóttir Viola: Karl James Pestka Cello: Unnur Jónsdóttir Video by Maximilian König - maximilian-koenig.com
