about
Glymur (pronounced similar to the english word "Glimmer") is the first release for my solo project Monsoons. I named this song after the largest waterfall in Iceland, Glymur, which translates to "Rumble", a sound I tried to achieve for the outro of this song. During this past Fall I traveled to Iceland and spent two weeks driving around the country. While traveling, I came across information on this area called Hvalfjörður which contained Iceland's largest waterfall. The hike to the view of Glymur took 2.5 hours, with a 3 hour hike back down. It was a life changing moment, seeing and hearing this fall roar through the sky. I wanted to capture the emotion of that moment into this song, and share it with you.
