The end result demonstrates how differently we humans interpret words and lyrics.
More often than not, we draw from it mental images coming from our own unique experiences, often breaking with the author’s original intentions.
…which was exactly the point!
Instead of releasing a standard CD, I figured an album/book hybrid would be more interesting.
The word ‘hybrid’ is also what best describes the accompanying music.
Despite the title “10 grafiske tolkninger…“, meaning “10 graphical interpretations…” in Norwegian – one song was removed from the project because of inappropriate lyrical content, so the book actually contains 9 (the cover being one of them).
FYI! The lyrics are written in a local Norwegian dialect – Trøndersk.
The book is available here.
BY Recordings was born back in 2004 as a CDR label for quirky, experimental noise music with acts such as WIPThrash, Kanagawa & Halfbear.
In 2010 we released “From the Wilderness” by Lonely Punk, the label’s very first alternative rock & electronica project.
Today this label is basically a vehicle for Pønka prosa – a playful mix of brass music and ragga.
