i think there is alot to be said for working with other artists. everytime
we collaborate with other musicians, especially ones with a background of
more "traditional" (i.e. rock/folk/country etc.) music we come away from
the experience with much more than we would from a normal "putzing around
in the studio alone" session.
bjork has several things going for her in terms of collaboration:
1) she is very imaginitive and experimental ... much more likely to allow
an electronic artist do something off-the-wall than, say, Madonna -- who
gets accolades for working with a played out muzak-techno producer like
William Orbit and basically just restates electro/house instead of doing
something really creative.
2) her songs are great .. both lyrically and musically
3) to be business minded, she has a huge audience and immediate name
recognition which will bring exposure to any artist who works with her...
do you think Mark Bell would be producing Depeche Mode's next album if he
hadn't run the boards on "Homogenic"? well ... maybe, they did get Tim
Simenon for their last one I guess...
