简介
Photographs is the first track we wrote as a trio. It was inspired by Laura looking through her family history and all the old, black and white photo albums. She was intrigued by this one-way communication that spans decades: the people on the photos wanted to communicate what they did and how they lived to the generations that came later, but there's no way to communicate back. This produce a really strange, but nostalgic feeling, that we tried to convey in the song. Laura came up with the initial lyrics and the melody and gave it to Robyn. She then embellished it and rewrote it for two voices. Her focus was to create an interplay between the two voices that is at times warm and comforting, but at other instances distant, foreign and maybe even unsettling. The whole track came together with Igor's production where he kept the arrangement minimal, with some melodic and rhythmic surprises. The focus remained on the vocals, while the instrumentation creates a dusty, creeky, murky atmosphere that you'd find in an attic of an old abandoned house.
