Icelandic music by Bjarnason, Sigurðsson and Salonen

Delicate Melancholy:
The label specializes in atmospheric music. Works by Icelandic composer and producer Valgeir Sigurðsson include deeply melancholic pieces like No nights dark enough and For love of her (do but kill me), sung by Jodie Landau.
Virtuoso and Dark Percussion:
Bedroom Community also features Daníel Bjarnason's dark and virtuosic percussion concerto Inferno, performed by Dominique Vleeshouwers. The concert also contrasts the ethereal The air, turning by Edmund Finnis, with the explosive Gemini by Esa-Pekka Salonen.
