  Interview: Gusgus - Applied Acoustics Systems
Gusgus is an electronic-soul band formed in 1995.
Gusgus was and is a strange thing that has developed on it's own for the past ten years.
Gusgus has been working on a new album for two years now, very much on and off period because everybody in the band needs space for other things to work on such as art exhibitions, programming, DJ'ing around the world and doing music with other people.

 Gusgus - Interview - Premonition
Gusgus still has the same gut in its production (as we are the producers) but now we are finally free:) so things will start flowing from now on.
That flow of work is new for Gusgus as in the past we were almost only working from demos and ready-made songs that needed the right production.
Gusgus vs T-World was a very important release for us as these were track from mine and Buckmasters past as T-World, so it has a big emotional value for us.

A glimpse into the building of the sound world that is GusGus today, and, they insist, a glimpse at the direction they'll be moving towards with their next proper album.
When the cinematographic members of (what was to become) GusGus were producing a short film (entitled "Pleasure") in the spring of 1995, they asked T-World to provide the music.
GusGus released the album themselves in Iceland, and it was picked up by 4AD and re-released as Polydistortion in early 1997.

 One Little Indian • Daníel Ágúst
GusGus achieved no fewer than three domestic number one singles and a slew of awards, no meagre feat by any means, but for his debut solo album Agust has ditched the dance-friendly beats so easily crafted by his former outfit: Swallowed A Star is a grand work, symphonic pop in its finest, gently alluring pomposity.
Having toured Europe and the United States several times with GusGus, the group went on to release two critically acclaimed albums, "Polydistortion" (1997 4AD Records) and "This is Normal" (1999 4AD Records) plus a string of hit singles, three of which, written or co-written by Daníel, went to number one in his native Iceland.
Leaving GusGus in order to pursue his own musical path, Daníel has reached a pinnacle of creativity and quality with his own solo album ‘Swallowed a Star’, to be released in Iceland on One Little Indian via Smekkleysa in October 2005 to coincide with Daníel's performance at Iceland Airwaves, release date TBC.

Oh, and gusgus also kicked off the whohasthebestmixingdeskintown contest by investing in an SSL during the 2nd period.
Daniel Agust also put in a lot of good vibes with his participation on this album and Gareth Jones with his strong winds of desire that pushed the boat with such force forward that all of a sudden the ATTENTION was masterd.
Others to collaborate with gusgus on this album are good people like Hrafnkell Sigurdsson, Haraldur Jonsson, Aftur (www.aftur.com), Noah Herzog/Spine and last but not the least, Paul Mcmenamin/Spine (www.spineinc.com) We are here to stay real.

 Believe in gusGus
During the second half of 1996 the buzz surrounding gusGus was increased sizably when 4AD began releasing a series of DJ/club promo 12" singles.
I was curious what plans release wise are in the pipeline this year and Baldur mentioned that the "Believe" EP has just come out last month in the UK as a two-part CD single set.
I was excited to hear plans of a possible limited TAD gusGus release in the form of a remix album containing different takes on songs and maybe all new material as well.

 Gusgus - Interview - Premonition
Photos D.R. Réduit au trio des “producteurs” et rejoint par une nouvelle chanteuse (Urdur Hakonardottir aka Earth), l’ancien collectif islandais Gusgus revient sur le devant de la scène avec “Attention”, un album qui déroutera certainement les fans mais pourrait conquérir un public plus habitué aux dancefloors qu’aux salles de concerts enfumées.
Ils n’avaient que peu d’intérêt pour Gusgus et ne nous offraient que 2000 £ pour enregistrer “Attention”.
Cet album a une très grosse importance pour Buckmaster et moi, il représente notre passé commun sous le nom de T-World, il a une forte valeur émotionnelle.

 Live Review: gusgus, the Palladium, November 25, 1997   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Whatever the reason, music from, say, the former Czechoslovakia (Uz Jsme Doma, the Ecstasy of St. Theresa) tends to sound eclectic beyond even what the most stoned Commercial Drive buskers could ever hope to produce.
Whatever gusgus might actually be trying to do, they probably wouldn't like to think of it as esoteric-ambient-retro-handbag-goth, but that's pretty much all I can think of to describe it.
Certainly, gusgus are inclusive rather than exclusive, and it's about time we had bands like that around.

 Jimi Tenor - Organism, GusGus - This Is Normal | PopMatters | Music | Reviews
With its many different threads and influences, including the Sun Ra-esque "Total Devastation," Organism makes the case that Tenor is a truly international artist.
GusGus is less indebted to 70s funk than Tenor, but the Icelandic assemblage of DJs, programmers, vocalists, and visual artists share Tenor's love of dance rhythms.
Their sophomore effort, This Is Normal, sports deep house grooves spiked with Euro disco and is designed for the club dance floor.

Основной акцент в статьях и рецензиях на GUSGUS делается на то, что они с одного небольшого островка - Исландии, родины Bjork.
GUSGUS отошли от мрачноватого северного саунда в сторону синтетического звука 80-х.
Так что теперь обновленная музыка GUSGUS вполне подходит как для шумных вечеринок, так и для романтичных поездок за город, что, в сущности, не так уж и плохо.

 gusGus
Baldur Stefansson, the group's "cultural ambassador", is sitting by the window of a Queen Street restaurant, happily slurping away at a milkshake, oblivious to the urban tundra and the glum faces surrounding him both inside and out.
Its follow-up is a conundrum that shifts from cool, angular Euro house to somnambulant trip-hoppy stuff to knowing girly pop - a far cry from the dusky tones of most of their labelmates.
Baldur's 'cultural ambassador' moniker not only suits his duties with gusGus, but his native country as well, which he never tires of talking of.

 GusGus: Attention - PopMatters Music Review
The first time I heard the band GusGus was in a commercial for the 1998 movie Out of Sight.
Obviously, GusGus' funky house/hip-hop/techno composite stuck out like a sore thumb on 4AD, but they were welcomed nonetheless with critical acclaim.
In 2000, a mini remix album entitled GusGus vs. T-World was released, featuring a Sasha remix of "Purple" and DJ favorite "Anthem" (incidentally, T-World is a dance music duo comprised of GusGus member Biggi Thorarinsson and DJ Herb Legowitz).

 Hinternet-Rezensionen GusGus: Attention/This Is Normal
Das isländische Popikonen-Vorbild B. Gudmundsdottier liegt nicht weit von GusGus entfernt.
Beide kommen aus Reykjavik und beide starteten mit einer avantgardistischen Version von Popmusik- Björk und die Sugarcubes nahe am Indie-Kontext angesiedelt, GusGus, zehn Jahre später, in der technoiden, triphoppigen Version von zeitgenössischer Musik.
Schon das Erstlingswerk "Polyesterday" gab einen eigenen unverkennbaren Stilmix vor, der mit "This Is Normal" perfektioniert wurde: Humanoid wirkende Drumsamples, viel Fläche, analoge Wärme, Bleeps, altmodische und kitschige Streicherarrangements ("Bambie") und auch mal housige Anleihen wie bei "Very Important People" sind die Eckpfeiler des GusGus-Sounds.

 gusgus Mp3 Albums Review
All in all, it's "Polymovie" that makes this album recommendable, except for those who would buy it anyway for collection value.
But certainly POLYDISTORTION and THIS IS NORMAL are the most important purchases by gusGus.
The "Believe" 16B mix is just awesome (as heard on Sasha and Digweed's Northern ExposureII) and was what got me interested in Gusgus to begin with.
