Childhood friends Sigtryggur Baldursson and Birgir Mogensen reflect their punk upbringing and their latest project Paddan.

For Paddan’s Sigtryggur Baldursson, “Splash” is one of those tracks that had a “clear line” from start to finish. “It’s built on a groove that reflects our influences from the electric funk jazz of the early ’70s, which we both spent hours listening to in our early teens in Kópavogur,” says Baldursson, referencing longtime friend and collaborator Birgir Mogensen. “The song became an ode to those times.”
