NO NO NO
Second album emu has recommended to me but this artist I can't stand. It's the little recommendation engine that can't.

Holy Smokes is Right
This is a winner! I love this! This has a great mix of Scottish, Indian, alternative, a bit of technic, etc....Wow! I want more!
holy smokes, this is good
Loved her project with Dirty Projectors, and the remake of Crystalline is another dead-on perfect collaboration. Bjork doesn't sing much on track 2, and doesn't at all on track 3 (which, for the price, could be skipped if you're not a big Omar Souleyman fan).

Who Is…Leila?
By Andrew Perry, eMusic Contributor
Leila registered a blip on the electronic-music radar in the late '90s, after associations with musical heroes Björk and Aphex Twin saw her debut record on Aphex's Rephlex label, Like Weather, earn a warm reception for its lush, slo-mo textures. A second album, 2000's Courtesy of Choice, spread her name a little wider. Some critics said she was trip-hop; Ms Arab vehemently disagreed. But even without a cosy niche, her future looked rosy. All that was… more »
eMusic Q&A: Omar Souleyman
By Chris Nickson, eMusic Contributor
On the map of Syria, a slim finger of land extends to the northeast. This is Hassake, the country's breadbasket, a land of plenty where the countryside is fertile and dominated by farms. Deep in Hassake, out near the fingertip, lies Jazeera, a region of small towns and villages that stand closer to Iraq and Turkey than the country's capital, Damascus, 12 hours away by road. It's a world away from the huge crowds of… more »
eMusic Q&A: Bjork
By Andrew Perry, eMusic Contributor
One of the pop world's most intrepid and unique artists (of either gender), Björk has fearlessly skipped through genres as diverse as disco-pop and anarcho-punk, big band swing and avant-garde techno, in a career spanning almost thirty years. Her name is synonymous with integrity, otherness and a questing spirit that's rare in the post-millennial landscape. The latter quality has inspired her in 2011 to devise probably her most ground-breaking work to date, with Biophilia. More than… more »

Icon: Björk
By eMusic Editorial Staff, eMusic Contributor
Björk's got a lot going for her: eccentric songwriting, visual presence, a smartly chosen bunch of collaborators, high-flying conceptual grandeur. More than anything, though, she's got a voice like nothing else on the planet. It's bizarre and lovely, a sound that seems at home both on radio hits and in avant-garde art spaces. It communicates at least as much as her songs themselves, and in fact presenting lyrics is pretty far from the point: unless… more »

Will Oldham and the Wisdom of Palace
By Douglas Wolk, eMusic Contributor
There are some received ideas about Will Oldham, aka Palace/Palace Music/Palace Brothers/Palace Songs, aka Bonnie "Prince" Billy, that just won't seem to die: that he's a "folk" artist, that he's all about "Appalachian" music, that he's an innocent, Bible-thumping soul who somehow stumbled upon the indie-rock world - that he is, in short, some kind of hick or hayseed. He doesn't exactly discourage them with his image (the crack in his voice, his burning stare,… more »
