Fordlândia CD / Album
by Jóhann Jóhannsson
CD / Album
Description
Originally released just as Jóhann's star was rising in the world of modern composition, Fordlândia is a beautiful meld of strings and electronics, with two themes running throughout; 'This album is like a film with two separate story lines that at first don´t seem to have a lot to do with each other, but actually they do', said Jóhann at the time. The idea of failed utopias is the main thread, with the album's title is a reference to the Fordlândia rubber plantation in Brazil that Henry Ford built.
