Björk has announced a new box set.
The Icelandic vocalist and producer, who recently confirmed UK and Ireland dates for her Cornucopia Tour, will release a deluxe edition of her 2017 album ‘Utopia’ on November 1 via One Little Indian.
It will contain 14 handmade bird call flutes created in collaboration with the French company Quelle Est Belle and chosen by Björk, in addition to a USB of music, videos, images, remixes, bonus tracks and an instruction booklet for bird calling. The collection will be housed in a bespoke perspex case designed by M/M Paris, who have worked with the innovative musician before. Björk said:
“‘Utopia’ is so much about birdsong and sonically the mutation between synth/bird , bird/flute , flute/synth…air like that was a theme through all of the album. So i got very excited when i found these handmade wooden flutes imitating precisely particular birds . and i guess wanted you guys to have an opportunity to share that with me …….. enjoy !!!”
