RA.883 Fever Ray
b"Co-mixed with @Aasthma.\\n\\nThere are few people who have had as much of an impact on contemporary electronic music as Karin Dreijer, whether with their brother Olof in The Knife or with their solo project, Fever Ray. From massive indie-pop hits to paradigm-shifting dance records, Dreijer's work takes a psychedelic, plasticine approach to synth pop, with their trademark pitch-shifted vocals and psuedo-tropical beats. As Fever Ray, they've tapped into the global club music underground, working with producers like N\\xeddia, Paula Temple, Deena Abdelwahed, Vessel and, on new album Radical Romantics\\u2014one of our favourite albums of the year so far at RA, hands down\\u2014even Nine Inch Nails.\\n\\nOther important collaborators in Dreijer's world are Peder Mannerfelt and P\\xe4r Grindvik, the Swedish techno producers who have been working with Fever Ray since the first album back in 2009. They co-mixed this RA Podcast. The mix is a survey of Dreijer's favourite dance music, some of which informs their one-of-a-kind sound world as Fever Ray. There's plenty of music from the groundbreaking East African scene centered around Nyege Nyege Tapes, plus DJ Haram, Equinkoxx, Tayhana and more, and even two exclusive, upcoming Fever Ray remixes from Avalon Emerson and Nifra. It's a rare look into the musical tastes of a true visionary.\\n\\nRead more at https://ra.co/podcast/883\\n\\nPhoto: Flemming Bo Jenson"
