iTunes Review

Mount Wittenberg Orca is a seven-track album born from a 2010 charity concert that raised funds for protected marina areas. The collaboration makes a certain amount of sense, since both Dirty Projectors and Björk have built their sounds on innovative song arrangements and pushing the boundaries of using vocals as an instrument.
