CMU Approved
Approved: Björk – Crystalline
By Aly Barchi | Published on Wednesday 29 June 2011
‘Crystalline’, the first track from Björk’s new multi-arts venture and LP ‘Biophilia’, has emerged in full online following a teaser clip that surfaced earlier this month.
Offering a suitably strange initial glimpse into what Björk has termed her “multimedia project encompassing music, apps, internet, installations and live shows”, ‘Crystalline’ sees Björk offset her offbeat pop sensibility with a warm, winsome vocal hum as she sings about crystal formation over a trickle of triangle chimes, working in a jarring drum n bass melee for the track’s closing section.
You can stream the song below prior to its official release, along with a specialised accompanying iPad app, on 30 Jun.
