Björk – Utopia Bird Call Boxset

Description

Created in collaboration with the company Quelle est Belle from the mountains of southern France, this deluxe edition boxset comes housed in a bespoke perspex case designed by M/M (Paris). The hand-etched lid features an intricate design, while tinted side panels cast a softly coloured glow, illuminating the 14 unique birdcalls nestled inside inside individually assigned compartments. In the upper left corner sits a custom-made USB-C Flash drive containing the music of Utopia, along with videos, images and an exclusive, unreleased instrumental track. A discrete drawer below houses an eight-page colour booklet detailing each birdcall and providing instructions for use.

” 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 !!! Warmness, Björk ”
