These are from The Knife's soundtrack to Tomorrow In A Year, some kind of stage production about Charles Darwin. It occupies the same territory as Bjork's pieces for Dancer in the Dark and David Byrne's score for Twyla Tharp's Catherine Wheel. That is: some off kilter pop elements, atmospherics, a bit of concrete music. Some of the musical motifs have been modeled after birdsong, which gives it a kind of 70s minimalist feeling.
