Björk: Fossora
Björk’s 2022 release, Fossora, opens with a big banger, “Atopos,” with flowing clarinets, pounding bass, and hammering beats. While the rhythm connects to our feet, Björk’s voice connects to our soul: “Hope is a muscle / That allows us to connect.” The title track is another club-banger with raging electric beats and a bit of Indian flavor mixed in. On the flip side, “Mycelia” takes us back to the root with a hypnotic vocal ensemble that wordlessly conveys the beauty of nature. Even though Björk takes her music as far as she can, Fossora returns human relationships: love, loss, and connection.
