  • Oct 30, 2006 And, whilst Johann Johannsson remains somewhat of a singular oddity amongst his fellow humans, A User's Manual perfectly demonstrates that there's preciously zero degrees separating this man from machine.

Back in the fantasyland of 2006, before Jóhann Jóhannsson became the big shot composer internationally lauded for scoring such films as Sicario, Arrival, and (almost) Blade Runner 2049; he released IBM 1401, A User’s Manual, his fourth full-length album and the closest thing to confirmation that computers have souls…souls which respond ecstatically to the loving insertion of peripherals.

Johannsson

The quick-start guide version of the album’s inception and illustrious backstory goes like this: Jóhannsson’s father recorded the sounds of an IBM mainframe computer more than 30 years prior to the album’s release in 2006. That recording (made on reel-to-reel tape) inspired the younger Jóhann to compose a more elaborate piece as an homage to that obsolete technology, and the music that’s principally heard on the album was performed by a sixty-piece string orchestra obviously commissioned for the job. They all <3 computers, too!

Bottom line: eleven years later, the album (possibly along with Fordlândia) still stands as one of the most career-propelling works in the Icelandic phenom’s oeuvre. And now, guess what? 4AD is paying its own homage to what we totally thought was an obsolete and nerdy (though it may still be nerdy) technology by reissuing IBM 1401, A User’s Manual on vinyl for the first time ever! But that’s not all: this brand new, sexily obsolete vinyl version — due December 8 — also includes two live tracks performed by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, who also performed the studio versions.
