Odd album. It's almost entirely a capella but with the effect of orchestration provided by layering, looping and electronic effects. At the very least, it's a triumph of production and arrangement. I think I finally "get it" because it's still unified by the same overall aesthetic as Björk's other records.

Ronny Heimdal - Timequake (1999)
First listen. The sole album from this Norwegian jazz rock artist. With Heimdal's guitar in focus it reminds me a bit of Guthrie Govan's Erotic Cakes album, but the added presence of keys make it sound a bit more spacey. It's quite good this. Enjoying it, that's for sure.

Siouxsie's own favourite of her albums I think, it's certainly one of the most ambitious. If anything it's even more everything-but-the-kitchensink than A Kiss in the Dreamhouse, throwing in all kinds of not just orchestration but also experiments with sampling and loopings. Also has a curious aesthetic concept that can best be described as "cyberpunk burlesque" tying it all together, which I guess is why it works as well as it does.
