Drum Island

The Norwegian ambient dub trio Drum Island comprised ex-Ismistik member Ole J. Mjos, Apollo Records co-founder Torbjorn Brundtland and promoter-turned-DJ Rune Lindbek. Under the name Those Norwegians, the group issued a series of 12-inch singles on the UK label Paper Recordings before evolving into Drum Island, issuing their brilliant self-titled debut LP on Apollo in late 1997. ~ Jason Ankeny
