hi all,just curious if you were there what’d you think of her sets? i was thinking … 🤨😐 eartheater and shygirl were awesome tho
I don’t know why people are surprised that you couldn’t see her much and she can’t mix songs. there’s plenty of videos of her doing professional shows billed as a dj where she has large stage coverage, and even more videos of her djing at smekkleysa where you can hear it’s more of a playlist experience. plus, from the sound of it, shygirl and eartheater had great dj sets, there were a ton of names on the bill.
eartheater wasn’t djing i was up front and there was clearly someone else up there mixing for her, she was just drunkenly screaming into the microphone lol
okay, that alone is worth the ticket price 😅
You're a child she was doing a live vocal performance she had someone mixing for her while she was whaling
I paid about $100 a ticket for row three on the Vespertine tour. It was the most I had ever paid for a ticket at the time and it's still the best concert I've ever been to. Now it it costs that much to not see her play other people's records. Shrink-flation is wild.
How much were the tickets last night 😮
$100 pre-fees on first round, about $160 (including fees) on same day resale
ain’t cheap
Considering Bjork was the headliner I found it to be suspiciously cheap…
I saw her perform at The Shed in 2019 during her Utopia tour, that was all seated, no pictures/videos allowed, etc (total opposite crowd/vibe from last night lol) and that ticket was around $500 for a good seat in the 3rd row. So even though I was disappointed last night, I had a feeling it was too good to be true in comparison. Very thankful I’ve seen her live, up close and in the flesh at least once in my life!
I might just be stingy lol to be fair if I was in Brooklyn I’d probably pay too. How long was the set?
She did two sets, one 8:15-9:00 and then 11:30-12:45. Shygirl and Club Shy were my faves. Jlin and Eartheater there too… the set list was posted somewhere here
I wish she released these sets. Does anyone know if anyone compiles the names of artists/ tracks that were played?
Most of them are in Selects: Björk by Playlistor on Spotify
I saw her in one of the Iceland DJ sets last summer and I thought she was brilliant. The set wasn't always flowing effortlessly but she exposed me to so much amazing music I'd never heard of before. I still listen to many of those songs to this day
transcendent
I had a great time! Some of the sets were way better than others
I respectfully disagree but I’m glad some people enjoyed it
😐
agreed
I enjoyed it, it was chaotic asf and not what I was expecting but once I got over my expectations lol I enjoyed it. had to sorta forget that i was there to see bjork because it was not rly the vibe i was expecting from bjork.
how was sega bodega's set? that's what i was most looking forward to of the night but this 33 year old body could not stay up past midnight. 0:~)
33 is so young! No excuses haha.
Sega Bodega was fine, lots more chill. He played Crystal Castles and then I left to go dance more at Animal... and I'm almost 41 ;)
Wow sounds fun!! my stamina for late night fun tapered off by like 29. i'm an in bed by 9pm with a cup of barley tea and reading a chapter of tolkien kinda girlie. 🤣 but mad respect for that and also i love that SB played CC haha
I feel you! We went at 10pm and that’s my bed time these days. I took a nap before and had some espresso & hoped for the best. Once we got there I was fine and it was totally worth it.
I went into it having no expectations. I’ve seen Bjork perform live several times and she puts on amazing show but heard not such great things about her DJing. I went with one of my best friends & fellow Bjork fan who I grew up with. Back in the 90s I went to outlaw parties & I remember going to one under the Whitestone bridge I think. So there was a little nostalgia element at the idea of Bjork & dancing at a party under a bridge that was appealing. With no expectations & knowing there was a good chance it could totally suck I wound up having a great time! The vibe was really good. The location was great & I was happy that I went.
I had the time of my life!! I thought it was the perfect amount of weird, mixing some avant-garde noise with some serious club bangers that I am excited to listen to more. And after reading comments here, I am soooo thankful I paid for VIP since I could actually see her and all of her adorable and strange dancing.
Did she really hide herself in the show? And what was the reason?
so the stage was set up with crazy leafs and shit and he was hidden behind it the whole time and she didn’t even come out from behind it to say hello or goodbye
i genuinely believe it was a body double ngl
Why do you think that? 🤔
the high resolution pics i’ve seen of her that night, don’t look like her at all, the nose and lips are noticeably different from her recent vogue cover.
obscuring the view from most of audience is an interesting choice, i understand we went for music, but she did not speak at all, which yknow you think you’d say “hello brooklyn” to people who paid $100 to be outside in the rain
shygirl turning off comments and deleting the ones that mentioned how it doesn’t look like bjork.
this set compared to her most recent one with arca is uhh interesting… like the comments on her post seem to be how half the ppl felt
It was really her, got to see upclose at the vip pit, she kept waving hello to all of us as well and danced to everyone else set behind the stage. she seemed in great spirits
That's wild.
It was absolutely not ☠️☠️
I wish we could get a full set recording some day, i’m tired of watching from shaky camera vids lol
I was in VIP and got some pretty great video. I think I'm going to make a compilation and put it up on YouTube tomorrow
lmk if you post it :))
can someone pleasee drop the ID for the track she opend with, it had a bunch of car noises. wish i could upload a video but nonetheless i fear it was an unreleased bjork song
it was just a cover of New York, New York, with car horns https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BjRloqAjFxM
thank you omggg!!
Shygirl was immaculate, my expectations for the bjork set were met because i was told by my girlfriend she’d just be up there fucking around pressing buttons and wow she was right lol
love this
I kinda knew what I was getting myself into but hoped that maaaybe she’d learned how to DJ since I last heard / saw evidence online years ago, but not the case.
Lesson learned: I’ll never spend my time and money like that again for her “DJ” set.
i felt the same way.. had me confused as shit but eartheater and shy girl rocked it
Eartheater wasn’t even djing lol i was 3rd row and there was clearly someone else up there mixing for her. But whoever it was def did an amazing job one of my fave sets of the night
wait no way that’s nuts , at least they killed it
yeah it was the perosn that played guitar on her powders tour who dj'ed for her. eartheater was more than likely too kundled to mix lmao
Man I wanted to like shy girl but those transitions… were fuckin not it. Eartheater was 🔥, watched Bjork from VIP and it was adorable but yeah, even for being premixed the blends were pretty harsh often- still glad I got into VIP bc not being able to see her at all woulda marshed my mellow, esp w all the ‘djing’ before and after her set
It’s always been like that... Her having a ball to some weird world / exotica music playlist while hiding behind masks and bushes. On this occasion she charged her US fanbase $100 to listen to car horns. But don’t moan about it - you're probably financing her next album for the rest of us.
does anyone know where we can find the IDs for hers, eartheater, and shy girl’s sets?
i recorded the sets, i can help u with id's if u want
omg, you’re the best! do you have any of eartheater’s set? I think I liked theirs the most but couldn’t ID any tracks.
Would love to know the tracklist for Shygirl’s set. In particular, she played a remix of The Prodigy - Poison but I have no idea who remixed it. Would also be great to hear that entire set again.

I loved it 😭😭😭
Was a little disappointed she repeated a couple tracks from her tri angle dj set but otherwise she killed and I left extremely satisfied!!!
when you pay and show up to a show, you are allowed an opinion
I bought 4 tickets for me and friends so add 4 downvotes here.
Not crying. It sucked in surround sound for all of us.
Amazing, just wish I couldve actually seen her lol
