  • My top 10 Björk remixes
    Feb 9 2023

    Remixes are an integral part of Björk's discography. Think about it: she has multiple remix albums — including Telegram (which remixes Post), Voltaic: The Volta Mixes, and Bastards (which remixes Biophilia).

    And that’s because Björk intentionally writes songs that can evolve over time. 

    So in the final episode of this season, I’ll count down my top 10 Björk remixes and why.

    (Please listen to the end for a note about future episodes.)

  • How Björk succeeds in business without really trying
    Jan 26 2023

    In 2022 Björk released her 10th studio album. Considering how many artists have stopped after five or fewer, it’s a big accomplishment. But it’s even more significant when you consider how experimental Björk's records have been, especially after Homogenic. 

    So how has Björk managed to make it as an artist even though she’s pretty “uncommercial”? How has she continued to create on a global scale — without compromising her bold artistic vision?

    In this episode I’ll share three reasons: her choice of record label, her early relationship with Nellee Hooper, and her DIY attitude.

  • ¿Por qué el fan típico de Bjork es un chico gay mexicano?
    Dec 15 2022

    En una entrevista en 2016 con Another Magazine, Bjork dijo: “...alguien hizo una encuesta online sobre dónde estaban mis fans... ¡y aparentemente mi típico fan es un chico gay mexicano de 20 años! ¡Me sentí muy orgullosa!”

    En otro episodio hablé con fans de Bjork sobre porqué su música resuena en la comunidad LGBTQ+. Si aún no has escuchado ese episodio, hazlo. Se llama "LGBTQ + Bjork".

    Pero desde mi investigación para ese episodio, me he preguntado sobre la otra parte de esta cita: ¿por qué el fan típico de Bjork es un chico gay mexicano?

    Así que, en este episodio, hablaré con fans de Bjork de México sobre por qué su música resuena allí. Y juntos encontraremos tres razones posibles.

An Intimate and Informative Journey into Björk's World

Savannah Wright's podcast, "Björk Unravelled," is a delightful exploration of the iconic artist Björk's music and career. From the moment you start listening, Savannah's beautiful voice draws you in, creating an intimate and engaging atmosphere. Her narration has a relaxed pace that makes the podcast pleasant and easy to listen to, even during more complex discussions about Björk's work.

The inclusion of samples from Björk's songs and interviews adds a dynamic layer to the podcast, making the listening experience even more immersive.

I particularly appreciate how Savannah doesn't just stop at discussing Björk's main albums; she also explores remixes and lesser-known works. This comprehensive approach provides a well-rounded understanding of Björk's artistic evolution and the various facets of her music.

Lots of good stuff here

I love all the tidbits in these episodes. You can tell a lot of research goes into these. I’m a big Bjork fan, but I’m learning so much about her and her music I didn’t already know. I love hearing others’ input about her music and lyrics and everything. This podcast is great! There is a lot to be discussed about Bjork, but I’m pleasantly surprised with many of the topics of these episodes. Very well done!
