Edda Magnason released her second album, Goods, (first on Adrian Recordings) last year to worldwide critical acclaim. It was also announced that she will be playing the leading role in a major film project about the Swedish all time great jazz singer Monica Zetterlund. The filming is taking place right now, but just before she went into the actor bubble, she recorded one off track that we now are releasing in one of our most interesting concepts up to date.

The release has one baring concept line in form of a musical ”Chinese whisper” and some bonus features.

This is the story:
Edda Magnason went into the studio with long time friend and mega electro pop star Familjen in the producer’s chair. Together they recorded her track Jona. That’s the first track of the release.

Instead of adding the usual 2 or 3 remixes of the track we started a “Chinese whisper”. We asked Vidderna to do a remix of the original track and then we asked Niva to do a remix of the Vidderna remix, without hearing the original, last Justus Köhncke remixed the Niva remix without having heard either the original or the Vidderna remix. It all became a musical “Chinese whisper” going from Familjen’s nearly Portisheadish sound to deep underground German techno from Justus Köhncke. This creates the EP Jona by Edda Magnason.
