Say, did you like that Jonsi record? I agree, it was pretty great, sounding like what you'd get if his parent band Sigur Ros decided to make a pop record. Another question - how do you feel about remixes? You're right, if the parent material is good and they don't step on the original too much or get too hammy, it can be a great way to rediscover a song you already love. So it sounds like you might like to check out this "Go Out" EP Jonsi released, four remixes of three different songs from his album "Go". I don't think anyone who dug that record would be disappointed.
As a side note, it had never struck me until this EP how much Jonsi's voice reminds me of Jeremy Enigk at times, especially when Jonsi is singing in his lower register.
