Exploring Grenivík

A few recordings made during me and my friend Max's trip to the north of Iceland, to my family's cabin in the small seaside town of Grenivík.

Location Grenivík, Iceland
Recorded May/June 2026
Duration 3:39 - 7:32
Equipment Olympus LS-5
Licence CC BY 4.0

In Grenivík there is stillness. Me and Max went there to make music, and did a few of these hikes in the surrounding area. I brought the recorder just in case. These are mostly from those ventures out, and mostly contain some kind of water.

One of the places we explored had this old, abandoned swimming pool. This is apparently where children learnt to swim back in the day, what a place to have your swimming lessons!
