Lykke Li's sensory songs

from Take 5 · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

Lykke Li has one of those voices that stops you in your tracks. It’s husky, it’s sweet, it can sound like love itself, then heartbreak in the next moment. From the first moment I heard it, I was a fan. And in her five albums since, Lykke Li has evolved as an artist whose depth as a songwriter and maker has mirrored her life experiences.Her latest album is EYEYE; it follows the end of a big relationship and you can hear it in every second. Lykke recorded it in a totally different way; stripping back her production, abandoning click tracks and headphones, just feeling and being in that feeling.It’s accompanied by a handful of short films, which bring this devastating heartbreak to life even further. It’s a truly sensory experience, and so I asked Lykke to share her sensory songs. From Funkadelic, to Brian Eno, to wildly beautiful Bulgarian choirs, this is therapy not only for the ears but for the soul.Funkadelic - 'Maggot Brain'Brian Eno - 'The Big Ship'Lorenzo Senni 'Canone Infinito'Melanie De Biasio - 'I'm Gonna Leave You (Cinematic Orchestra Remix)'Bulgarian State Television Female Choir - 'Kalimankou Denkou (The Evening Gathering)'
