Worth a Listen: Ólafur Arnalds' 3055

    From Ólafur Arnalds' debut solo album, the song '3055' is by far the best on the album and definitely worth a listen. The music is labeled as "Neo Classical" mostly because of the use of strings and piano throughout the album. There is even a little synth, hence the 'neo.' The songs on Eulogy for Evolution are simple and light while staying whimsy-free. 3055 (all of the songs on this album are four digit numbers, I have no idea why...) starts off slow and builds to a sweeping, but brief, crescendo after four minutes. This is one of the few tracks on the album where you'll hear drums.
