Product Description
Bjork brings forth her 10th album of crazy genius, elements that should not work but blend together effortlessly taking the listener on a journey of sound and expression. Where before we were flying through the sky, this time feet are planted firmly on the ground.
As Bjork explained "Each album always starts with a feeling that I try to shape into sound, this time around the feeling was landing (after my last album utopia which was all island in the clouds, elements of air and no bass) on the earth and digging my feet into the ground, it was also woven into how I experienced the "now". This time around 7 billion of us did it together nesting in our homes quarantining, being long enough in one place that we shot down roots. My new album "fossora" is about that, it is a word I made up, it is the feminine of fossore (digger, delver, ditcher ), so in short it means "she who digs" (into the ground) so sonically it is about bass , heavy bottom-end, we have 6 bass clarinets and punchy sub. I would like to especially thank bergur þórisson and heba kadry, side project, el guincho, hamrahlíð choir, soraya nayyar, clarinet sextet murmuri, siggi string quartet ensemble, emilie nicolas and serpentwithfeet"
