Within 
the 
last
 five
 years,
 Reykjavík‐based
 Ben
 Frost 
has
 made 
a
 world wide
 reputation
 for 
himself
 with 
two
 albums
 for
 the
 Bedroom
 Community 
label. 
“Theory 
of
 Machines”
 (2007) 
– 
inspired
 in
 part 
by 
Soderburgh’s
 Solaris
 and 
“By
The
 Throat”
 (2009), 
as
 well
 as
 his
 work
 with 
artists
 such
 as 
Tim
 Hecker, 
Amiina,
 Björk
 and
 label
 mates 
Sam 
Amidon, 
Nico
 Muhly 
and 
Valgeir
 Sigurdsson. 
Following
 work 
for
 contemporary 
dance
 productions 
by
 Wayne
 McGregor/Random
 Dance,
 Chunky
 Move 
and
 the 
Icelandic
 Dance
 Company,
 Frost
 has
 also 
increasingly
 worked 
in
 film
 music.
 In
 2009
 he 
composed 
the
 score 
to
 “I
 Am
 You” 
and 
a
 series 
of 
short 
films 
by 
Gael 
Garcia
 Bernal
 and 
Marc 
Silver 
for
 Amnesty
 International
 called
 “The 
Invisibles”.
 This
 year
 his
 music
 will
 also 
grace 
the
 Australian
 film
 “Sleeping
 Beauty.” 
This
 work 
has
 led 
to
 Frost 
becoming 
more
 and
 more 
engaged
 with 
orchestral
 music,
 so
 it’s 
fortunate
 that
 within
 a 
short 
time
 of
 receiving
 the 
Solaris
 commission 
from
 Unsound,
 Frost
 was
 also 
presented
 with
 the
 opportunity
 to
 work
 with
 one
 of
 the
 most
 exciting 
orchestras
 in
 Europe
 –
 the
 Krakow‐based 
Sinfonietta
 Cracovia.
