Product Description Her first album following the break-up of the Sugarcubes, Debut is Icelandic trickster Björk's statement of purpose: bringing curious experimentalism to the dance floor and putting her startling, expressive voice front and centre. Her perspective is a little alien--it's no accident that the first song talks about "getting close to a human"--but her levelling of genre distinctions has some wonderful results, especially the eroticised easy-listening reggae sway of "Venus As a Boy". Paired with producer Nellee Hooper (of Soul II Soul), she comes up with a series of invitingly artificial settings for her pipes, built from late-night beats and peculiar timbres, and sings like she's overwhelmed with joy from all her senses. --Douglas Wolk desertcart Review Her first album following the break-up of the Sugarcubes, Debut is Icelandic trickster Björk's statement of purpose: bringing curious experimentalism to the dance floor and putting her startling, expressive voice front and centre.

But this I didn’t get in CD, I got cassette. Then I purchased this CD from desertcart. I always love, love, love her performance so much. So funky, so bohemian. So quirky and crazy and wild. Absolutely love it. Whatever, 🎵Shh, Oh so quiet 🎶🤫. She's Icelandic. Very talented performer. Her voice is really unusual. So mesmerising. Pronounce her (Bee york). Her other albums are also brilliant stuff to listen and dance. Review: Great addition to my collection - Great addition to my collection

Go buy her albums for Christmas party❗️
I’ve got all her albums I bought from shops long time ago. But this I didn’t get in CD, I got cassette. Then I purchased this CD from Amazon. I always love, love, love her performance so much. So funky, so bohemian. So quirky and crazy and wild. Absolutely love it. Whatever, 🎵Shh, Oh so quiet 🎶🤫. She's Icelandic. Very talented performer. Her voice is really unusual. So mesmerising. Pronounce her (Bee york). Her other albums are also brilliant stuff to listen and dance.

Bjorks' Debut is the best debut!
i have always loved this artist but it is only until recently that i decided to purchase some of her albums...in order that is! Bjork is one iconic and inspirational woman who defined the sound of the 90's with Debut and the next 2 realeases Post and Homogenic! that Trip Hop,Electronica and Avant Garde style that was indeed so very artistic,original and innovative, in fact Bjork and Madonna literally had THE albums that literally defined my taste while growing up as two individual and strong women, Bjork is a definitive favourite of mine, so very unusual but remains one of the most creative artists out there! One of my ALL TIME favourite artists (alongside Madonna,Marvin Gaye,Sly Stone,Kate Bush,Janelle Monae and Britney Spears). Debut was released in 1993, a year that saw a growth in pop experimental styles and a very optimistic and futuristic atmospherics in styles, it was a brilliant time to be a 90's kid put it that way! and my tastes weren't ever to follow the trends of what's in exactly but the styles i personally loved, so Erotica by Madonna,Janet Jackson's Debut,Kate Bush's Red Shoes,Michael Jacksons Dangerous and Bjork's Debut it was! here we have one striking elemental classic after the next, each showing different sides and perspectives of Bjork as herself and is an albums literally one of it's kind! and most definitely one of the most striking and grasping debut albums ever to be brought to attention! it shows great clarity and vision, and the most pivotal thing...it still remains as sensational as it was released 17 years ago! a definitive classic, 10/10

Faux-debut, still the best work by Bjork (4.5*)
As is widely known, Bjork Gudmundsdóttir was a part of Sugarcubes, before she launched the unique solo career in 1993. Her "Debut" is, for many fans, still her best longplayer. Her post-modern, alternative pop was one of the most enriching influences for mass music market in the 1990's, with a number of her albums (mostly this and "Post") occupying top spots in commercial charts at the time of release. Inspiring and novelty use of bass, drums, weird but accessible melodies and, most of all, the unique singing style, sometimes childishly emotional, with her trademark English pronunciation, sometimes with daring lyrics, produced an inimitable original. Many of her best tracks are danceable, but most are beautifully atmospheric. The sucesses of "Human Behaviour", "Venus as a Boy", "Big Time Sensuality" or "Play Dead" lay also in the evocative videos that ruled TV in the pre-internet era. Other highlights of this excellent album include "Aeroplane" and "One Day".

Gran bel disco di questa gran bella cantante! Misteriosa e sperimentatrice al punto giusto, voce paurosa, carisma da conquistatrice, ho acquistato oggi il suo primo da solista, che avevo ai tempi, già in audiocassetta, per ritrovare il gusto della musica concreta (nel senso di supporto...). Come tutte le opere, ci sono pezzi più belli e altri che prendono un po' meno, e in questo caso personalmente mi piacciono più le canzoni che non sono state singoli o video ('Crying', 'Aeroplane' e 'Come to me' sopra tutte). Come costante di ogni disco successivo, il libretto con i testi, sempre gradito. Non ho mai ben capito, però, la scelta di non riportare il testo dell'unica cover, 'Like someone in love'.

O primeiro trabalho da cantora, sem dúvidas, uma obra atemporal e de impacto na música pop mundial. Excelente trabalho. Ouvir na mídia física traz sonoridades que se perdem no streaming. Obra prima.

So many people say that modern day cassettes don't sound good, without knowing what they are talking about. If you have a very good cassette player, the quality is great. I have 50 or so modern day cassette releases and the Bjork ones are very good. Debut is just an all time classic well worth your time!

Gut!
