Í Hakanum is a 1980 studio album by Mezzoforte, released on Steinar and originally released in Iceland only. The September 1981 UK release, titled Mezzoforte, had a different cover artwork, but since their first album, released only in Iceland, too was called Mezzoforte, Í Hakanum was usually referred to as Octopus, which later became the title of the 1996 CD re-release.

| - Í Hakanum is de IJslandse naam van het tweede album van de IJslandse funk-/fusion-band Mezzoforte uit 1980. Het album is opgenomen in IJsland in 1980 en is geproduceerd door Geoff Calver. Van de tracks bestaan zowel IJslandse als Engelse titels. Het album verscheen eveneens in het Verenigd Koninkrijk met een andere cover onder de titel Mezzoforte en werd vaak het Octopus-album genoemd. In 1997 volgde er een digitaal geremasterde uitgave op cd onder de titel Octopus. Bepaalde tracks zijn ook terug te vinden in het in 1984 uitgegeven verzamelalbum Catching up with Mezzoforte. Van de tracks Midnight Express, Danger High Voltage en Shooting Star werden eveneens singles uitgebracht, die tussen 1981 en 1982 in het Verenigd Koninkrijk verschenen. (nl)
