Bjork releases info about upcoming album "Volta"
Volta is the name of the album and the date is May 7th. The Press release reads thus:
Volta being made "Musical innovator Björk releases her next studio album ‘Volta’ on May 7th 2007. ‘Volta’ is Björk's sixth studio album and follows the release of ‘Medúlla’ in 2004. Featuring ten brand new and original tracks ‘Volta’ is entirely written and produced by Björk. In the role of producer Björk has brought in various other musicians to work on her songs and ‘Volta’ features some of her most interesting collaborations so far with Antony Hegarty (Antony And The Johnsons) singing on two tracks, and Timbaland (Jay-Z, Missy Elliot etc) working with Björk on beats that she created for three further songs. Other artists that feature on ‘Volta’ ******* electronic pioneer Mark Bell of LFO and two unique drummers – Chris Corsano (the improvisational drummer who has worked with Sonic Youth amongst others) and Brian Chippendale from Lightening Bolt. Björk also brought in two acclaimed African artists for ‘Volta’ - Toumani Diabate, the Malian kora player and Konono No1 the experimental band from The Congo who won a BBC World Music Award in 2006. She has also put together her own 10 piece female brass section of Icelandic musicians who play on three further tracks. Meanwhile Chinese pipa expert Min Xiao-Fen plays on one song." So it read! And now we can start counting down: One, 2, three, four, 5, ...... etc |
