Skipping Stones RecordsA small indie label with big ideas.Tuesday, October 23, 2007DYRDIN Airwaves Review in PitchforkLive: Iceland Airwaves by Douglas Wolk "I feel a little odd cutting out of !!!'s packed, stellar gig--at the same time as Bloc Party and Chromeo are both playing a few hundred yards away--to check out a band I know only through a couple of MP3s. Fortunately, Dýrđin, playing upstairs at the tiny Grand Rokk to about 30 people, are the discovery of the festival for me-- a gloriously pithy, pogo-worthy sha-la-la band in the Pipettes/Heavenly vein. ("No no no no no no no," in Icelandic, turns out to be "nei nei nei nei nei nei nei.") They've got a keyboardist in what looks like a Marimekko sweater, a bassist with an Iron Maiden T-shirt, and a pair of harmonizing singers with Swinging London haircuts; their set-closer, "Bubble Girl", is so familiar and perfectly formed that I figure it has to be a cover. (It's actually one of the songs I'd heard on the Iceland Airwaves site, but they play it about twice as fast." Read the whole review here. We wish we were there!
