we don’t often cover opera here on super/weekly, but then, it’s not every week that Swedish electropopstars The Knife team up with Mt Sims and Planningtorock to create a soundtrack to an opera based on Darwin’s On The Origins of Species using everything from Richard Dawkins’ gene trees to field recordings from the Amazon and bird songs. after debuting in Copenhagen in September last year, the opera itself is now touring, while the soundtrack’s out Monday on Brille Records
