5. Pattern Is Movement - "Enjoy"

Pattern Is Movement On "Enjoy"
"Björk's music informs nearly every one of Pattern is Movement's songs. We've always been completely enamored with her ability to combine universe-sized grandness with the intimacy of lips on your ear. We are thrilled to be a part of this love letter to her. Our approach was to substitute the density of the percussion with harmonic and melodious density, all the while maintaining the exotic-groove-with-steamy-organ motif. To us, the end result wound up sounding like Perry Como in the Congo."
- Pattern Is Movement

Great track. It's like PIM is recalling the song of an old friend. Simultaneously sounds like both Bjork and themselves.

Damn guys... great cover. And the best of all of this is that you two are fucking gorgeous bears. If you could give an argentinian bear guy a kiss, i'd be there for sure!
Hugs and kisses! Bob.

wow, this is the first song on this album that's made me want to comment. I fell in love with the vocal harmonies immediately. You guys took it somewhere entirely different. Maybe it lost some of the exhuberant, ecstatic, erotic joy that bjork's voice gave the original... but it accentuates the melancholy that was always hiding within the words.

congrats! I'll be listening to more Pattern is Movement in the future!
