Sigur Rós members Georg Hólm and Orri Páll Dýrason, along with their buddies Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson and Kjartan Holm, have been working on the soundtrack for a new BBC documentary called, The Show Of Shows; a compilation of archived footage of circuses, carnivals and vaudeville acts spanning 100 years.
That 72-minute long instrumental soundtrack was recorded in Sigur Rós’ studio in Reykjavík, and it is now ready for purchasing – you can check out a video for one of its tracks ‘Lila’ below
