Finally, in 2015 the two started to share tracks and ideas over the internet and an album started to develop which encompassed a myriad of genres and influences moods and emotions that mutate the borders of dance floor techno and home listening electronica. The album feels like a soundtrack to memories where city life and nature blur into one. Both of their native landscapes seem to be an inspirational factor in many of the soundscapes and melodies with a hint melancholy and futuristic optimism in equal measure. Both residing in Islands in the Atlantic, a project name fitting to their surroundings seemed appropriate "Skua" is a native seabird of Arni's Iceland.
