Bedroom Community
For the concept of a town whose residents work elsewhere, often called a bedroom community, see commuter town. Bedroom Community is an Icelandic record label/collective which was founded in 2006 by producer Valgeir Sigurðsson, alongside fellow artists Nico Muhly and Ben Frost, later adding more artists to the roster. Based on the outskirts of Reykjavík, Iceland, Bedroom Community is also the home of Greenhouse Studios.Bedroom Community was described by Drowned in Sound as "one of the best guarantors of quality, even importance, out there" known for its "emotionally powerful music". The Line Of Best Fit has described the label as 'more of an ecosystem cultivating music than a traditional record label', claiming that 'within ten years they've gone from being a side concern for a bunch of preternaturally talented composers and producers to become one of the most respected record labels in... the world?'In 2011, Pierre-Alain Giraud made a documentary film called Everything Everywhere All The Time, which follows Sam Amidon, Ben Frost, Nico Muhly and Valgeir Sigurðsson on their collective tour, showcasing the music they've collaborated on and released individually under the Bedroom Community umbrella. The documentary was premiered at the Reykjavík International Film Festival, followed by screenings at CPH:DOX, Iceland Airwaves and more.In 2016, to celebrate the label's 10th anniversary, a number of artists embarked on another Whale Watching Tour - this time travelling to the USA. Bedroom Community founder Valgeir Sigurðsson commented that: "The Whale Watching Tour is an opportunity to manifest what we, as a record label and a collective of disparate musical personalities, do...to create something uniquely belonging to the live experience, from source material that is very familiar to us.These shows are fuelled by joyful energy and appreciation for each other, but also tension, blood and sweat that makes it all the more rewarding at the end of the day." At Iceland Airwaves 2016, Bedroom Community showcased their back catalogue with Crash Ensemble, the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and conductor André De Ridder at Harpa. Ja Ja Ja Music reviewed the performance as being 'Diverse and powerful', claiming that 'there was something to suprise [sic] and arrest at every stage of the evening's programme, serving as a great testament to everything the label has achieved over the last 10 years, and an enticing statement of intent for what is surely to come.'

bedroom community
A bedroom community is a residential area or neighborhood in which a large portion of the residents commute to a distant city for work. These communities, often suburban areas, are usually quiet and peaceful with less commercial or industrial activities. The term "bedroom community" is derived from the idea that residents only sleep (i.e., use their bedrooms) in these neighborhoods and spend the majority of their waking hours elsewhere, especially for work.
