Bjork-Vespertine


This CD is blowing me away! I have never heard a 2ch disc with so many layers. The soundstage is very wide and impressive. Not sure how this project was mixed but I wish more titles sounded this good. I know that many might find her voice annoying but I love that little elfish girl from Iceland...she has some pipes! I wonder If anyone agrees with me on this? I highly recommend this disc to those who haven't heard it.

I just received two DVD's of hers.Live From Shephards Bush and Live At the Royal Opera House.I believe the latter is Vespertine live.I watched/listened to the Shephards Bush one the other night and got blown away by her.That elfish comment is so accurate.She almost seems like she exists in another realm or world when she performs and sings.Yeah i have become a fan and that voice and her control of it as an instrument are mind blowing to me.She's a great artist in my opinion.Really looking forward to sitting down and enjoying the Opera House DVD soon now.
I know a guy in copenhagen that produced the music fortwo tracks off that lp... undo and coccoon i believe.. his name is thomas knak, but records under the name "opiate" and is in some interesting electronic bands called "future three" and "james bong".. but his opiate stuff is much better... similar to what is on vespertine
Vespertine is my fav Bjork as well, and not by a small margin. Although I would say every bjork album (except telegram) is awesome in its own way, y'all should check out Post, Selmasongs, and Drawing Restraint for sure if you haven't already. If you are a jazz fan you also need to give Gling Glo a listen, it is a killer set of tunes.
