A while ago my band was invited to do a bjork tribute show, and the date is coming up very quick :S
September 30th @ the Powerhouse in brisbane were going to be doing a show of 4 Bjork songs + 4 of our own songs.
After much discussion ( and fighting ;) ) we chose Hidden Place, Joga ( does anyone know how to actually pronouce it???) , Hyperballad and Violently Happy.
So far Hidden place is not so removed from the original, Joga is a mess of industrial noise ( i sampled my washing machine ) , hyperballad features samples of thunderstorms and children playing ( but isnt so removed from the original ) and violently happy is a fucked up mix of ebm/idm/hardcore
We have a friend doing visuals ( richard De Souza ) .. he's done visuals before for us and they were great, he has these little mini cameras he live feeds to his vj stuff and were planning on tempo synching it via midi.
its getting to be quite a big event .. im getting a little nervous.. :S
This is the last in the series of tributes to electronica ... previous were Gary Numan, Depech Mode and New Order.
pics and mp3's will hopefully be available after the event..  | |

yeah, joga is a person, imagine having the coolest name on the planet
or maybe anyones name is cool when traveled around the world
just pronounce it as dry as possible, none of that "fohw marble" or "cafej ow laeh"

plus, a compilation album of joga songs would be more awesomest than a compilation of bjork songs
