Homogenic is the fourth studio album by Icelandic musician
Björk, released in September 1997. Produced by Björk,
Mark Bell,
Guy Sigsworth,
Howie B and
Markus Dravs, it was released on
One Little Indian Records. The music of
Homogenic was a new style for Björk, focusing on similar sounding music combining electronic beats and
string instruments with songs in tribute to her native country
Iceland.
Homogenic was originally to be produced in her home in London, but was later recorded in Spain.
Homogenic marked the first of several production collaborations between Mark Bell and Björk, whom Björk would cite as a major influence on her musical career. The album peaked at number twenty-eight on the
Billboard 200, and at number four on the
UK Albums Chart.
