Re: Bjork

Great news!! I'm psyched that they will be collaborating again. Bachelorette is phenomenally brilliant. Isobel remains my personal favorite though. I just love the black & white cinematography and the whole mood.
 
Re: Bjork

IMAX? 3d? Bjork??

I am going to get *so* high and see this multiple times
 
Re: Bjork

i used to idolize her like i never have with anyone else, but i kinda lost interest after selmasongs. part of it was me growing up, of course, but i also think shes getting more and more inaccessible and self-indulgent. her 90es work had, for all its weirdness, a lot of pop and fashion to it, which im kinda missing in her more recent work. still, at least shes always interesting and still makes good things every now and then. just my personal opinion.
 
Re: Bjork

WOW!! that was incredible!! Kinda forget how great Bjork was/is but i have never seen that video. Thanx! ...now to to find those 15 year old cd's and get them on my ipod... hmmmm

Bjork, Morricone Share Sweden's Polar Music Prize

Italian composer Ennio Morricone and Icelandic singer Bjork have won the 2010 Polar Music Prize.

They will be invited to accept the award, which includes 1 million kronor ($130,000) each in prize money, at a ceremony in Stockholm later this year.

The Polar Music Prize is Sweden's biggest music award and is typically shared by a pop artist and a classical musician. It was founded by Stig Anderson, manager of Swedish pop group ABBA, in 1989.

Prize committee Chairman Alfons Karabuda said 44-year-old Bjork personifies the border-breaking attributes sought by the committee, "bravely and without compromises."

Bjork sang in various Icelandic bands in the 1980s and rose to international fame with her solo album "Debut" in 1993. She has since released five more solo albums as well as film soundtracks and compilations. She also won the Cannes Film Festival's 2000 award for best actress for her role in Lars von Trier's "Dancer in the Dark."

"With her deeply personal music and lyrics, her precise arrangements and her unique voice, Bjork has already made an indelible mark on pop music and modern culture at large, despite her relative youth," the prize committee said in its citation.

Morricone, 71, has composed more than 400 film scores, including the iconic theme from "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" and other spaghetti westerns directed by Sergio Leone.

The prize committee said his "congenial compositions and arrangements" help lift "existence to another plain, making the mundane feel like dramatic scenes in full Cinemascope."

"He built up a brand new kind of music that set the tone for half a century of film music, but also influenced and inspired a number of musicians in the spheres of pop, rock and classical music," the committee said in its quotation.

Last year's award was shared by British musician Peter Gabriel and Venezuelan composer Jose Antonio Abreu.

Björk and Dirty Projectors to Release Collaboration Mount Wittenberg Orca

Last May, Björk and Dirty Projectors debuted a new collaborative suite called Mount Wittenberg Orca. It made its debut at a benefit for Housing Works in Manhattan, an event put together by former Pitchfork contributor and current Stereogum writer Brandon Stosuy. And that's about the last we heard about this fleeting meeting of the musical minds. Until now.

This April, Björk and Dirty Projectors entered Brooklyn's Rare Book Room studio and recorded an updated version of Mount Wittenberg Orca. The 20-minute, seven-track piece was written by DP leader Dave Longstreth. It was be self-released digitally on June 30 with money raised going to the National Geographic Society.

Mount Wittenberg Orca:

01 Ocean
02 On and Ever Onward
02 When the World Comes to an End

Re: Bjork

I love just about everything she's done... seen her live so many times I've lost count, from the days of the sugar cubes to the show with the Fireworks on Toronto Island.

This looks great.

Re: Bjork

Björk made a song for the animated Finnish children's film Moomins and the Comet Chase. You can watch the video for "The Comet Song" below. In the song, Björk sings about a comet that seemingly might obliterate the Moomin world as we know it-- kinda dark! The song is out on iTunes now, with all proceeds from its sale going to UNICEF Pakistan childrens' charities.

Re: Bjork

God, I wish she'd start putting actual melodies into her music again. That Moomins song is rank.

~*Vespertine forever*~
 
Re: Bjork

Björk recruited Antony Hegarty, singer for Antony and the Johnsons, for "The Dull Flame of Desire," a duet from her last album, 2007's Volta. On "Flétta," a track from the Johnsons' October 12 release Swanlights, she returns the favor. Listen below!

Unveiled Wednesday on Antony and the Johnsons' Tumblr, "Flétta" is a tender duet from two of music's most unique voices. A simple piano melody puts the spotlight on the Icelandic songstress' vocals, as Antony's shivering bellow follows her lead.

"Flétta" is just the latest in a flurry of activity from Björk, who released "The Comet Song" to benefit UNICEF's work with flood victims in Pakistan, and collaborated with Dirty Projectors on the seven-song benefit collection Mount Wittenberg Orca.

Listen to "Flétta" below:

For Immediate Release

SOLAR SYSTEM FOR iPAD RAISES THE BAR (AGAIN) FOR ELECTRONIC BOOKS

London, England—December 22, 2010—Solar System for iPad, the first publication to emerge from the recently announced partnership between Faber and Faber and Touch Press, is available today worldwide to download from the Apple iTunes App Store.
Eight months in development, and with a production budget approaching 1 trillion dollars (if you count location filming by NASA), Solar System for iPad sets a new standard for interactive books. The title combines stunning fully manipulable, space data based 3D realizations of the planets and moons with an intelligent specially written text by best-selling Faber author and former CalTech radio astronomer Marcus Chown.
This new electronic book follows on from The Elements, the runaway best seller published by Touch Press to coincide with the launch of the iPad. Over 160,000 copies have now been sold, and The Elements has just won a place in the forthcoming Brit Insurance Designs of the Year 2011 exhibition at the London Design Museum.
Theodore Gray, creator of The Elements, comments, “What sets Solar System for iPad apart more than anything is that it is not just an app or reference guide or tour, it’s a real honest-to- goodness book you can sit down and read.”
Like The Elements, the new title includes a song that plays once on the very first launch. This haunting and majestic track has been specially adapted by Björk from her forthcoming Biophilia project and for the moment is available only in Solar System for iPad.
