Janus Rasmussen - Inert (180g Marbled Vinyl)

Best known as one half of Kiasmos alongside Ólafur Arnalds, the Faroe Islands-born and Reykjavík-based producer Janus Rasmussen has spent years refining an elegant sound that combines sonic precision with emotional depth.

As a solo artist, Janus has created compositions that balance immersive sound design, subtle melodic shifts, and rhythmic drive, drawing on his diverse musical background and extensive studio experimentation. These experiences have shaped a creative identity that now comes clearly to the fore in Inert, his most ambitious solo project to date.

The album marks a bold step forward, exploring the idea of breaking through inertia by embracing creative freedom. In this new work, Janus uses his own voice more prominently than ever before, seamlessly weaving it into intricate electronic textures while expanding his sound into new territory—without losing the subtle restraint that has characterized his work until now.

Inspired by the full spectrum of dance music, Inert reflects a renewed sense of momentum, vulnerability, and adventurousness.
