Bonus Skor is a shoe shop in Reykjavik, Iceland.
This is where Laura J Martin went to demo tracks for her new album but ended up in a studio with Mike Lindsay (Tunng/ Cheek Mountain Thief). Over salt liquorice and Jamesons Whiskey they forged a 20min travelogue of four tracks segued together with field recordings, to be issued on Static Caravan in mid November 2012.

Reviews
"Just pop enough to fit these pages of experimental music, but also with enough experiment inside the idiom of pop so you know this will never be mainstream" (Vital Weekly)
"reference wise admirers of fever ray, caroline weeks and takako minekawa should find themselves suitably satiated for here a magically shy eyed and breathtaking aural landscape is scratched and etched" (Losing Today)
"A stunning piece of work" (DJ Magazine)
"This is a continually fascinating EP, both familiar and foreign, that feels like the magnetic call of the mermaid (and mer-man)." (Folly Of Youth blog)
"It’s irresistibly warm and uplifting." 5 stars (Norman Records - Single Of The Week)
"Flippantly experimental as it is endearing and entertaining. Like a wagon that got separated from the rest of the Renaissance Fair and ended up at a radiophonic workshop in the Land of Oz." (avantmusicnews)
