One Little Independent announce the 12” vinylrelease of Björk’s captivating collaboration withRosalía, featuring a stunning remix by Olof Dreijerfrom The Knife. ‘Oral’ dates back two decades - first written byBjörk between 1997’s ‘Homogenic’ and 2001’s‘Vespertine’, the track was lost to her archives afterfeeling like it wasn’t the right fit for an album. Björkrediscovered the song after being reminded of itsname whilst on tour in Australia in March 2023, thesame month a report was released about thedevastating impact of poorly regulated, Norwegianowned commercial salmon farming operations onIceland’s native ecosystems. After deeply resonating with the cause, and as apassionate campaigner and protester for much ofher life, Björk enlisted Rosalía to help bring thesong to life and in turn raise awareness of theissue. All proceeds from ‘Oral’ will be used to support alegal case against the fisheries, brought forth byresidents of the town of Seyðisfjörður on theeastern side of Iceland.
