Bjork – Utopia [CASSETTE]

Part of the 2019 re-issue series of Bjrk’s entire solo album catalogue on Limited Edition Coloured Cassette. Concept By [All Custom Instruments Except Sharpsichord Based On Ideas By]. Utopia, co-produced by Venezuelan DJ Arca follows-up her 2015 breakup record Vulnicura and celebrates her reemergance on the other side of heartache. “The last album, we sort of call it ‘hell’ – it was like divorce. So we are doing paradise now. Utopia,” the enigmatic artist explains. “Vulnicura was about a very personal loss, and I think this new album is about a love that’s even greater. It’s about rediscovering love – but in a spiritual way…” Transcendent lead single “The Gate” serves as a fitting introduction to a record about Bjork’s romantic renaissance. The eye-catching cover art was designed by artist Jesse Kanda with creative direction from Bjrk and her longtime collaborator James Merry.
