Rebekka // Neophyte // CD

Rebekka Karijord presents her debut album "neophyte"

Rebekka Karijord is one of KKV's new artists. When she presented her musical ideas on the music front with her own lyrics and music, we immediately realized that this was an extraordinary talent. 

She has been working intensely on her record for more than a year but the beginning of it all dates back much further in time. 

The result is a remarkably different and personal collection of songs and an extraordinary vocal music performance. What perhaps strikes you first, in addition to the versatile vocal performance, is the arrangements, presenting a very unusual mix of electronic music, pop, contemporary music and musical poetry. When the instrumental backdrop of strings, flute, drums and electronic sounds is mixed with an entire landscape of vocal acrobatics and powerful expression, listeners are in for a fantastic listening experience. 

The string and flute arrangements and electronic sounds are by the Swedes Malin Bång and Mattias Petersson. Musicians include a string group from Stockholm, German flautist Sabine Vogel and Norwegian drummer Rune Arnesen. Erik Hillestad has produced the CD in close cooperation with Rebekka, Malin and Matthias.
