Info for blómi

Fünf Jahre nachdem Sundfør ihre Karriere mit dem Folk-inspirierten, emotionalen Album 'Music for People In Trouble' persönlich neu definiert hat, taucht die Künstlerin und Produzentin auf dem gefühlvollen 'blómi' noch tiefer in ihre eigene Mythologie ein. Blómi bedeutet auf Nordisch "erblühen" und vereint spezielle Aspekte von Susannes Lebensgeschichte als frischgebackene Mutter zu einem lebensbejahenden Werk, das sich von allen ihren bisherigen Veröffentlichungen unterscheidet. Sundfør schrieb 'blómi' dabei vor allem als Liebesbrief an ihre kleine Tochter in einer zunehmend instabileren Welt.

Susanne Sundfør




Susanne Sundfør
born 19 March 1986) is a Norwegian singer-songwriter and record producer. Born and raised in Haugesund, Sundfør embarked on her musical career two years prior to the release of her eponymous debut album (2007), which reached number three on the Norwegian album chart. It was followed by Take One, a live album consisting of songs from her debut. Her second studio album, The Brothel, was released in 2010 to commercial success in Norway, peaking at number one and becoming the best-selling album of that year. The album saw a shift from the piano-driven pop of previous releases towards a more ambitious and electronic direction. In 2011, she released a live instrumental album composed solely of synthesizers, A Night at Salle Pleyel, serving as a commission piece.

Sundfør's music is varied, experimenting with various styles. Described as a mixture of experimental pop, electronica, folk, jazz, and classical music, the music she's released throughout the years also incorporates synth-pop, baroque music, electro-folk, electropop, dream pop, country, and avant-garde, while generally being labeled as an art pop musician. She has been compared to various artists, such as Kate Bush and Björk, although she's rejected these comparisons. She said the music she writes is heavily inspired by Carly Simon. Other influences she has cited include Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Cat Stevens, Radiohead, Burial, Skream, Aphex Twin, Depeche Mode, Scott Walker, Philip Glass, Sylvia Plath, and Elton John, as well as traveling, books, films, music, and "life in general."

Sundfør grew up on a mix of country, folk rock and pop music, while in 2015 she started listening to early dubstep: "When creating music in a folk rock environment the creative process isn't really taking place in the studio like it is when you're working with electronica. This ability to use the studio as a creative tool in itself made me lean more and more towards electronic music." As a record producer who's known for standing up against sexism in the music industry, she mentioned that "being a woman in electronic music often means fighting against prejudices that male persons do the programming and the females do the singing."
