July 19, 201114 yr Author Totally forgot to mention the whole thing of Dazed to anyone (and esp Jake) here about the Dazed thing. Found out about it from the Editor's mouth andddd very much going to do a period of interning there soon hopefully. 'Cosmogony' is incredible. As is this: jyaL-7Qr9Q4 NEED TO KNOW MORE & everytime David Attenborough introduced a song I got goosebumps all over! damn that voice
July 19, 201114 yr Author Biophillia cover http://cdn.pitchfork.com/media/bjork_3.jpg "If you happen to have $800 lying around, you can purchase Biophila's "Ultimate Edition", which includes the album (encased in "black uncoated board wallets"), a lacquered and silkscreened oak hinged-lid case, the "Biophilia Manual" (a "48-page, full-color, hardbound, cloth-covered, and thread-sewn book, tipped on lenticular panel to the front cover, with foil-blocked spine and back cover"), and "10 chrome-plated tuning forks, silkscreened on one face in 10 different colors, stamped at the back, and presented in a flocked tray. Each fork is adjusted to the tone of a Biophilia track, covering a complete octave in a non-conventional scale" Kinda wished she's used the Crystalline cover or atleast another one from that photoshoot. LOVE LOVE LOVE this one.. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lol6j3pg0r1qb4lmho1_500.jpg
July 20, 201114 yr Yeah I'm not overly keen on the cover. :( I'd prefer the 'Crystalline' cover to be for the album really. OH MY GOD THE APP. Incredible. Turns out it works on iPod Touches too, not just the iPad YAY. So obsessed with this woman at the moment. edit: Even more OH MY GOD...the 'Crystalline' game! Amazing. Edited July 20, 201114 yr by Cremey
July 20, 201114 yr It's incredible. OMFG. Aaah I know! The intro. The 'Crystalline' game. The animations. The scores. The clips. The pretty pictures. THE WHOLE DAMN THING.
July 20, 201114 yr I think I might have to return to the shoplifting. NEED TO HAVE THIS APP DO IT. Björk would be proud.
July 20, 201114 yr The album cover is a definite blip for a lady whose artwork is (usually) always second to none.
July 20, 201114 yr Author edit: Even more OH MY GOD...the 'Crystalline' game! Amazing. WHERE DO YOU LIVE. I NEED TO COME ROUND
July 20, 201114 yr Not too excited about Cosmogeny..., still anticipating the album though. I haven't listened to alot of her stuff (3 albums I think) but this project certainly has kept my attention.
July 21, 201113 yr I think I might have to return to the shoplifting. NEED TO HAVE THIS APP DO IT. Björk would be proud. Lol. I read somewhere that Björk once shoplifted an inflatable swimming pool because she needed a bathtub :P But the minute she got money, she stopped shoplifting, phew.
July 21, 201113 yr WHERE DO YOU LIVE. I NEED TO COME ROUND SOUTH SOMERSET BABY! We can sip cider, jam to the Wurzels and play the 'Crystalline' game all at the same time. Lol. I read somewhere that Björk once shoplifted an inflatable swimming pool because she needed a bathtub :P But the minute she got money, she stopped shoplifting, phew. Ha! Just proves my point further then!
July 24, 201113 yr SO jealous! What was it like other than grey? :P I really wanna go to that famous spring out there.. The scenery etc outside of the city is STUNNING and just the whole feel of the country is something that I can't even put into words. I also love that it hardly ever goes dark haha. You have to do the Blue Lagoon! It's like going from freezing cold air into what is essentially a hot bath but outside and is reeeally weird. Although I word of warning, DO NOT try their traditional shark meat thing. I went in my non-vegetarian days and so had no excuse (you're lucky you'll have it haha). They bury it underground for months then hang it up outside for a while and it literally just tastes like pissy cheese. Vom.

Pissy cheese oh nice.. are you sure you're not on commission from the Icelandic tourist board cos you're making it very tempting! :P Nah but seriously it does sound really good. Apparently they don't have tree's either which blew my mind. also so glad the full version of this mix has finally been released! Middle Eastern music + Bjork = all sorts of amazing rNwkYw9ISh8

Stand up! :lol:
July 26, 201113 yr I really love that Crystalline remix at the moment (along with the rest of the EP actually)... as a stand alone I may even prefer it to the original.
