Anecdotes
Björk était présente lors de son set au Sonar à Reykjavik en Mars 2018.
There was Björk raving to Jlin in a mask, and the Aurora Borealis (AKA Northern Lights), which were active and visible over the harbour. I also won’t forget the sight of hundreds of Icelanders singing happy birthday to US rapper Danny Brown.

- Jlin et Björk, Sonar Reykjavík, 13 mars 2018
HEBA : Did you drive with her in the Land Rover ? We worked out of her cabin which is overlooking this beautiful glacial lake. I got picked up from the airport and went straight to the country. She has this Land Rover that’s stick shift, and the country terrain is really rough ; it’s a bit of a bumpy ride. She blasts really loud music. She got me into Jlin.
I was actually supposed to be on her last record, when she was sketching her last record (Fossora), she wanted me to produce one of the tracks. Me being me, my schedule was very busy, and I didn’t get a chance to finish and I felt so bad. I said, ‘sis, I’m so sorry I didn’t get this finished in time.’ She said, ‘don’t worry about it, I know how it is, we’ll pick it back up down the line.’ But I had started writing the piece from what she sent me, and I wondered if she’d be willing to be on my record, so I asked and she said ‘of course, go ahead.’ From the first day I met Björk, she was just super encouraging to me…whatever I needed, she’s been just right there. When i first came to Iceland for the first time, she picked me up from my hotel and gave me a tour.
