After a three-year absence,
Kasper Bjørke
returns to HFN with a sublime new double EP entitled
Nothing Gold Can Stay
. Having followed a deeply personal ambient music path in 2018 led to the release of
The Fifty Eleven Project
on Kompakt Records (KOM 393LP), (named 5th Best Contemporary Album 2018 in The Guardian), Kasper has found his way back to producing some of his signature leftfield danceable beats, which "
the past decade has seen Bjørke steadily rising amongst the ranks of artful, eclectic electronic producers
..." (XLR8R)
Nothing Gold Can Stay
explores both the analog and organic side of his production work on Side A, while Side B reflects on sounds that he would play today, in one of his nightclub DJ sets. Side A contains four collaborations with four friends from LA, New York and Copenhagen. "Water", featuring
Toby Ernest
, the slow-mo opener to the EP, revives the partnership with Toby that was last seen on 2014's
After Forever
album (on the single "Rush"). Toby also provides the vocals on the cover version of
Alessi Brothers
' 1975 classic "Seabird" -- a track that came about through Kasper's friendship and musical synergy with DJ and vinyl digger
Christian d'Or
, who is lead crooning while Toby delivers his signature falsetto. The "Seabird" cover adds a distinct contemporary feeling to the original version while staying true and respectful to the delivery and mood of the songs core. Side B is directly aimed at the floor. Having stepped away from releasing club jams for a few years, Kasper is clearly enjoying getting back to the business of making people move. Side B of Nothing Gold Can Stay is both a testament to Kasper's versatility as a producer and an all-out dancefloor assault, made with precision and sensitivity. Also features
Tomas Høffding
and
Justin Strauss
.
