Re-issue: Björk - Stonemilker
Song Exploder
Wednesday, 7 September 2022 - 22 seconds
(This is a re-issue of Björk’s episode from December 2015.)
In January 2015, Björk released Vulnicura. She described it as "a complete heartbreak album." And in November, she released Vulnicura Strings, a companion album that stripped away the electronics. In this episode, Bjork breaks down the making of both the original version of the song "Stonemilker," which you’re hearing now, as well as the strings version. She traces her writing and recording process for the track, her collaboration with the electronic producer Arca, and why she wanted to make a second version.
