The fourth installation of the Sónar Reykjavik festival takes place from Thursday until Friday. To help you make a decision on what to see we got Anna Ásthildur Thorsteinsson, project manager at Iceland Music Export to give us her top picks of artists you shouldn't miss.
No. 1: Bjarki
"One of our most exciting techno music producers. I've really enjoyed Arthur and Intergalacti Whales which he released last year. "
No. 2: Introbeats
"I've been an Introbeats fan for ages but I haven't seen him perform his new EP before. It's called No Hassle and came out in January. This is going to be a gourmet dance fest. "

No.4: Brilliantinus
"I think Kormákur is one of the most exciting newcomers on the electronic scene in Iceland. I always enjoy observing the progress of his performance and music. I think he will go far."
