The Sun’s Gone Dim - A Tribute to Johann Johannsson

 

Johann Johannsson died on Friday, February 9, 2018.

 

Devastating. 

 

I absolutely adored his compositions.

 

I am at a complete loss for what to say about his music. So rather than try I made this mix.

 

Because I cross post all these mixes over on Mixcloud I am not able to make a mix with nothing but Johannsson music. Mixcloud has a policy of only 4 tracks from a single artist per mix. So I used 4 Johannsson cuts, some of my favs, and music from other artists that I have always grouped together with Johann.

 

I hope you will listen to this mix and also go seek out Johannsson's awesome library of music that is keeping his memory alive in this world.
