"What is great about the creative workflow of Fufanu," says frontman Kaktus Einarrson, "is that we've never stopped. We've never hit a sound that we’'e going to stick with; it has always been about discovering what it is we want to make during each moment, and to just keep on exploring."
That plunge—straight off the deep end, of course—is highlighted in this year's Dialogue trilogy, the second part of which hits shops through One Little Indian on August 24th. It'll be followed by a final installment and proper LP this fall, wrapping up a restless procession of post-punk, Krautrock, and experimental techno. Produced by Dälek co-founder Alap Momin (aka Octopus), no less.
"Three Icelandic techno-rockers brought the Harlem club scene to their studio in Iceland," explains Einarrson. "It was a life-changing week—a dialogue between musicians with different backgrounds, approaches and live styles, but we all have the same excitement about going into a new field of sounds."
