It’s a stunning day here on the North Shore of Lake Chelan in Manson! Things couldn’t be more exciting as the Northern hemisphere moves into Autumn.
This music inspiration came on the heels of my Swedish kick from Koop, but in a radically different fashion. The Knife are a Swedish Indie electronic, brother and sister duo enlightening us with hard-core lyrics, and pitch-shifting rhythm infused electronica.
The inspiration came from a recent picture of my glamorous duties in a smurf blue jumpsuit while punching down the cap on my Red Mountain Merlot. As I was considering full immersion within the bin of fermenting grapes, The Knife’s Heartbeat sums up exactly the relationship I have with each of my wine babies. As an artist, it’s like the deal you make with your art. You can leave it to “divine sense” and “lean on fate”, unless that isn’t be good enough for you, which it sure isn’t for me. It’s knowing the medium, for me my grapes and believing what they are telling me as I carry them through the wine process. The song lends lyrics to the story of what I imagine is the melding together of an artist’s passion and craft, sharing separate heartbeats.
Whoo, that was way cheesy and heavy for such a silly Swedish song.
By the way, I really just like the song because Karin Dreijer Andersson’s voice is so magnetic and the video rocks. She has also dropped lyrics with the likes of Röyksopp on “What Else is There.” Although she was the voice in that video, she was not the model singing. She’s also featured on Röyksopp’s “This Must Be It” and “Tricky Tricky.”

Then you can take it to another phenomenal Röyksopp song: It’s the single remix, but this youtube video is better than the original.
