Again, the concept that Bjork might actually be a interesting musician in
her own right seems to escape some people, as if there must be some reason
to work with her besides the fact that she's a great artist (I still think
it's unconscious sexism). Regardless of who she works with, her music has a
distinct and unique sound (when she writes songs for other singers you can
hear it immediately - how many musicians can you identify simply by the
sound of a melody? Prince comes to mind ...) that clearly is her own and not
her collaborators'. In many cases her collaborators have done their very
best work with her, with most of their non-Bjork work not quite measuring up
(IMHO).
Anyway, a friend of mine saw her last week on an Amtrak train in upstate
New York, working with some music software on her laptop. My friend is
familiar with sequencers and most commercial music software, but he said
that the software she was running was unfamiliar to him.
