Mute are excited to now offer âBird / Afraid Of Youâ on green 7-inch vinyl complete with new anniversary artwork designed by collaborator Martin Falck. The pressing is limited to 500 copies.
âBirdâ can be found on The Knifeâs 2001 debut self-titled album. A record that emerged more out of collaborative happenstance than a premeditated decision to make music, the recording sessions began withc Karin seeking Olofâs help in bringing her song ideas to fruition. Karin, disillusioned with the format of her previous indie-rock outfit, sought to push the boundaries of conventional pop music. Olofâs penchant for dance music and a burgeoning interest in computerized music-making seemed a natural and convenient fit.
The duo experimented with samplers, an accordion, bass guitar and computer programs to realize their vision. In this manner, the debut album functions as an auditory document of the pair finding their way as a newly formed partnership. The final recordings introduced the world to the vocal manipulations, punchy beats, and icy production that would become calling cards of The Knife for years to come.
Tracklist:
1. Bird (Edit)
2. Afraid of You
