Jennie Abrahamson releases new album 'Gemini Gemini' today!
'Gemini Gemini' is the fourth full-length album from Jennie Abrahamson. Written in the spring, recorded in the summer and completed in the winter, 'Gemini Gemini' encompasses this full seasonal shift reflected in the polarity of people.
Produced by Jennie with longterm colleague Johannes Berglund (The Knife, Shout Out Louds, Owen Pallet) as co-producer and engineer, contributors include Mikael Häggström (Jenny Wilson, Ane Brun, Nåden), kawala flutist Roland Keijser, singer and cellist Linnea Olsson and the Wild is the Heart Choir: Ane Brun, Charlotte Centervall, Sarah Frey, Nina Kinert, Linnea Olsson, Monica Starck and AKvon Malmborg.
The recipe is equal parts of 80’s, wide expanses of northland, bell-like asian kitsch and noisy rhythms from warmer countries. The catchwords are minimalistic maximalism - desiring a lot of sound but from as few and clear sources as possible. The juxtaposition of a melodic rawness is often driven by tribelesque rhythms and the duality of man that is so central to this album in all its forms comes to resonate through song after song; our ability to both rationality and irrationality, good and evil, development and stagnation, our ever-elusive separation of sense and sensibility. This gave inspiration to the album title and the lyrical theme.
