...from their beginnings, the songs on “Biophilia” had a grand ambition: to unify music, nature (as described by science) and technology.
New Björk!!!
“Biophilia” is a possible paradigm for the 21st-century album, one that welcomes the interactivity of the Internet and harnesses the power and flexibility of devices that incorporate video, audio and user control far beyond the play button.
Just downloaded Crystalline.
How's this for a review?
We are finding it difficult to pinpoint the most mind-blowing part about her new single "Crystalline," and the upcoming new album Biophilia that it comes from. Is it that headspinning, left-field breakbeat ending that drops in unexpectedly? Is it the fact that Biophilia doubles as a "suite" of iPad apps featuring interactive features for each song? (Each song has a "game" that the iPad users can use to actually manipulate the song in progress). Is it the fact that there will be an accompanying traveling exhibition showcasing unique instruments? The correct answer to the question, it turns out, is "yes." Everything about Bjork's upcoming project presages the kind of great-leap-forward thinking that leaves everyone else in the dust; "Crystalline" is merely the first taste.
instagram is where it's at!
