"Hunter"
Song

"Hunter" is a song by Icelandic musician Björk from her fourth studio album, Homogenic (1997). The lyrics of "Hunter" explore the pressure Björk felt to write music after realising the workforce that depended on her, following the success she found as a solo artist with her previous studio albums. The first time the song saw the light of day was at the 1997 Tibetan Freedom Concert and later with the online promotional release of Homogenic; the track was subsequently released as the third single for the album as three different CD releases in October 1998. A collaborative effort between Björk and Mark Bell, "Hunter" features a dark combination of strings and layered synths, a militaristic electronic beat, and enigmatic lyrics about the heading towards a mission.

Most commentators were enticed by "Hunter", which they declared one of the highlights of the Homogenic album. The single performed poorly at the music charts, it peaked at number forty-four on the UK Singles Chart and number fifty-five on the French Singles Chart. The song was included in the compilation album Greatest Hits (2002), whose tracks were selected by fans through a survey.

The accompanying music video of "Hunter" was directed by longtime collaborator Paul White of Me Company and consists of a close-up of a bald Björk as she transforms into an "techno-bear" while singing. Seeking to convey the music's fusion of organic and technological, the polar bear was animated in a non-naturalistic fashion; the bear also embodies the ferocious hunter the lyrics represent. The song's video garnered acclaim from critics. Björk has performed "Hunter" on Later... with Jools Holland and in four of her tours, the most recent being the Biophilia Tour.

Background and composition

"Hunter"
"Hunter" has been described as "an eerie, militaristic expedition into the unknown, featuring pitter-patter breakbeats, fluttering strings and enigmatic vocals."[1]

The opening track of Homogenic, "Hunter" showcases the hybrid elements of strings and electronic backing beats through the album. It blends the live sound of the Icelandic String Octet —orchestrated by Eumir Deodato—, Yasuhiro Kobayashi's accordion and "stuttering computer beats and beeps" programmed by Mark Bell.[2] Music journalist Evelyn McDonnell wrote "the production showed Björk's steeping in the cutting edge of electronic dance-music culture, her embrace of techno futurism, her time spent pulling all-nighters in London clubs. But the emotion was ancient, deeply human."[2] The song has been described as "dark", "uncompromising " and "icy".[3] According to Ray Gun, "Hunter" evokes an eerie terrain with rolling techno beats and strings penetrating the air like a toxic fog.[4] Björk's vocals have been much celebrated in the track. They have been described as what "[ties] the whole shebang together together [...]: full of reverberating menace and trepidation on the verses, then bursting into full-throated confession, layers of her voice pitching next to each other then cascading together."[2] The Wire wrote Björk's voice "oscillates between steely-edged determination and uncontained freedom.[5]

It has been noted that in "Hunter", Björk incorporates Iceland into the track with techniques that derive from Icelandic folk music and traditional stories. She uses the interval of a fifth continuously throughout the song, like the cellos during the first 30 seconds of the track; fifths were common in Icelandic folk songs, their use being particularly relevant to performance.[6] Björk has also said: "'Hunter' is based on what my grandma told me at Christmas; about two different types of birds. One bird always had the same nest and partner all their lives. The other was always travelling and taking on different partners. At some point there was a conscious decision made to remain a hunter."[6] Elements of Maurice Ravel's Boléro were also noted. René T. A. Lysloff and Leslie C. Gay, Jr. wrote: "one of the three main sections of the whole song is the Bolero ostinato (0:00-1:36). The sounds Björk uses to cover the rhythmic patterns from Bolero are tightly interwoven."[6]

Mark Bell's programming gave the song its "militaristic mode", which further conveys the sense of mission expressed in the lyrics.[7] Björk had recorded the vocals, bass line and chord structure of "Hunter" before Bell met her in Spain; he recorded the beats in one take after she had explained to him how she wanted them to sound like.[8] In an interview with Sweater, Björk said: "It amazes me that people still can't grasp that live element of it."[8] Regarding the beat of the song, engineer Markus Dravs stated it "is very much a Mark Bell beat interpretation of her. The idea of it being a Boleric beat [sic] was hers, but we tried different versions and I think it was Mark in the end who came up with the idea of just doing it on a 909. Then we all had a go on the filtering and played around with the decay of each individual drum."[7]

Lyrical interpretation

Over a marching rhythm, she sings: "If travel is searching/And home has been found/I'm not stopping/I'm going hunting."[9] Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine noted self-mockery towards "her own idyllic disposition" in the lyrics "I thought I could organize freedom/How Scandinavian of me!"[10] That line was covered in various reviews; it has been described as "hilarious" and "derisively" delivered.[2] When asked about the meaning of those lines, Björk replied: "in Iceland, the people from Sweden, we think they're really not cool at all and they just have got no sense of humour, are really organized. And you can't organize everything. So I think in that song, I was sort of... thinking that I could even organize freedom, just like very stupid. Quite Swedish, you know."[11] Some critics have also identified the lyrics as a hint to a failed relationship.[2]

According to Björk herself, the lyrics express how she felt obliged to produce music because of the people that occupationally depended of her. The lyrics "I will bring back the goods/But don't know when" refer to her songwriting process; in her own words: "Sometimes I don't do things that people I work with do —like spend time with families and lead a normal life. I have to isolate myself and put myself in a state so I will write a song."[12] After the success Björk encountered as a solo artist with Debut (1993) and Post (1995) —her most promoted album—, she began to feel more pressured as she noticed how her creative output directly affected the life of those around her.[7] In an interview with Dave Hemingway she stated:

"I guess that song's about when you have a lot of people that work for you and you sort-of have to write songs or people get unemployed, you know? In most cases, it's inspiring but in that particular song I was pissed off with it. I was ready for a break but it didn't seem fair on the people I worked with at the time."[1]

Release and reception

"Hunter" was first released in the promotional Internet release of Homogenic before the album was officially released.[13] In early 1998 it was announced that "Alarm Call" would be released as the next single off the album, followed by "Hunter".[14] By March of that year, still no release dates were specified, although the production of the music video was announced.[15] In April, plans for "Alarm Call" as the next single were suspended and "Hunter" was chosen instead.[16] The single was first released in France.[13] The release date of "Hunter" was confirmed to be 5 October 1998 in September.[16] There were three different CD releases of "Hunter" in the United Kingdom,[17] they were subsequently released in a box set in early 1999.[16] "Hunter" was also included in the "best of" album Greatest Hits (2002), whose tracklist was determined by fans through an online survey.[18]

"Hunter" garnered acclaim from music critics, who complimented its elaborate production, its haunting melody and cryptic lyrics. Marvin Lin from Tiny Mix Tapes called it "painfully beautiful".[19] Jack Dickey of Deadspin considered "Hunter" one of the only two songs in the album where "the instruments win out" and wrote it "is like Peter and the Wolf if, instead of a merciful hunter, Artemis were chasing the wolf."[20] In a review for the single release, Keir Langley of AllMusic praised the rhythm and intensity of the track as a showcase of her collaboration with Mark Bell.[21] The Wire's Louise Gray thought it was an "extraordinary, mesmeric song."[5] Evelyn McDonnell wrote "I myself had used the prevalent critical category for Björk uncategorizable amalgalm of styles: 'quirky.' There was nothing quirky about 'Hunter.'" She also praised the song's originality and appeal to various types of listeners.[2] Phil Freeman included "Hunter" in his list of songs which "say something important about the state of music since 1979—how venerable forms have changed;" inspired by Greil Marcus' attempt to define rock and roll in Stranded (1978). He wrote "her voice is protean and capable of astonishingly raw, foreceful outbursts, but it's when she holds it in, on tracks like this one, that her real power emerges."[22] Authors Shirley R. Steinberg and Donaldo Pereira Macedo identified elements of Donna Haraway's A Cyborg Manifesto in "Hunter". They state that, by assuming the position of authority in relation to the masculine other, Björk challenges the traditional notions of femininity; and that by "[leaving] to be the hunter," she "disrupts the nature/culture binary of which Haraway speaks."[23]

Music video

Development

For the Hunter video we wanted something different - something fun. Because by the time Homogenic came around, she'd already been everywhere and done everything, artistically speaking. She'd gone so far over the top that we felt a minimalistic approach would be more challenging for both of us. And for me, the post-production was much more of a challenge because it took several months, whereas she wrapped up after a single day of shooting.
—Director Paul White about the making of the video.[1]

The music video for "Hunter" was directed by longtime collaborator Paul White from Me Company, the design firm that produced the artwork of Homogenic and Post, and their respective singles. Computer animation was handled by Digital Domain. The live-action portion of the video was shot in London in 12 takes, with Björk performing in front of a green screen; she wore makeup to simulate baldness and tracking markers were applied to her head and face for subsequent computer graphics work.[24] A second performance was later shot with the singer's face marked up with infrared dots as a reference for animators to create convincing facial contortions, and a paper clay polar bear head was scanned next to Björk's head for modeling guidelines.[24]

Both Alistair Beattie —producer and member of Me Company— and Björk have used the word "techno" to refer to the design of the polar bear. To coincide with the song's fusion of organic and technological, it was deliberately designed in a non-photorealist manner.[24] In an interview for I.D. Magazine in November 1997, Beattie said:

Transformative products are exciting, but robo-pets are even more exciting. We were interested in making the technology very visible, but also playing with translucency and transparency, soft boundaries. The irony of the digital age is that, as technology gets more invisible, people are more interested in being able to see it again, as in Apple Computer's iMac, with its translucent blues and milky plastics that simultaneously tease and reveal.[24]

Post-production took place in California, where Digital Domain received all data. Using Autodesk Softimage and proprietary software, they tracked Björk's movements from the two marker sets and then began key frame animation using Autodesk Maya, Autodesk Alias and Autodesk Softimage.[24] By combining patch deformation and shape interpolation, the emerging bear head was created, composed of "100 maneuverable platelets that rise up through the skin."[24] Finally, rendering was completed using Pixar's RenerMan, a holographic shader was used to make the bear skin colors change, and all the computer graphics were added to the live-action footage.[24] According to The Wire, post-production work brought the costs of the video up to £250,000.[5]

Synopsis

Björk transforming into a polar bear in the music video of "Hunter".

The video begins with a white screen followed by a fade-in of a close-up of a bald Björk. She passionately sings looking into the camera; as she shakes and moves her head, she begins to morph into a polar bear. Torwards the end of the video, she completely transforms into the "techno-bear", before returning to her original state and the image once again fading-out to white.

Reception and analysis

The video received general acclaim from critics. Freeze Frame deemed the video "primal" and complimented Björk on keeping the attention of the viewer by only showing her head and shoulders, thus comparing it to "Sledgehammer" by Peter Gabriel.[1] I.D. Magazine praised its special effects, writing they "reach a new level of detail in [the music video]" and compared the singer's transformation to that of the title character in Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.[24] Louise Gray of The Wire described the music video as "extraordinary" and "deeply affecting".[5] Cultural theorist Dominic Pettman, while analyzing the "becoming-animal" theorized by Deleuze and Guattari, found that the video for "Hunter" —along with the character Treadwell in Herzog's Grizzly Man— embodied various points these philosophers studied regarding that concept.[25] Shirley R. Steinberg and Donaldo Pereira Macedo wrote that in the music video, Donna Haraway's metaphor of A Cyborg Manifesto appears in "Björks embodiment of a human-animal-machine hybrid."[23]

Evelyn McDonnell has identified bears and hunters as recurring themes in Björk's videos.[2] The bear was used as a "literal symbol of strength, ferocity, self-determination and the North, a pioneering roaming spirit."[24] Beattie has stated that as the song is about the two different states of the hunter and the gatherer, "the polar bear is the perfect symbol of the hunter state, it polarizes (ahem!) [sic] the difference between the two into something really extreme and magical."[24] When asked why the video is "so stark", Beattie compared it to kōans and haikus in the sense that "it tries to ask the question in the most interesting manner possible," and added that "[they] wanted the effects to be done right in front of your eyes" so that "the magic and illusion are all the more powerful."[24] About the concept behind the video, White said:

This video features Björk morphing into a polar bear - and proves that she's willing to do anything to push herself artistically. And the beauty of Hunter is it's utter simplicity. It's about a woman who allows the animal within to take over when necessary. The provider - in a cold world. It's amazing that after all these years people still don't understand it. Mission accomplished.[1]

In an interview with The Wire, Björk said that the video "[is] about the argument between hunting experiences and stopping and settling."[5] She has also stated to Interview that she identifies with polar bears because "they're very cuddly and cute and quite calm, but if they meet you they can be very strong."[2] Freeze Frame wrote: "She's is the hunter-gather [sic] that we evolved from, still with us and still a part of us. It's about shedding the denial and embracing what we are - what we really are, even thought it's sometimes hard to tell."[1] The Wire wrote the video "also tackles shape-changing, the idea of transmogrification that is the core of shamanic power."[5]

Recognition

"Hunter" was the runner-up for the Prix PIXEL-INA Vidéoclip at the 1999 Imagina festival.[26] At the 2000 Fantasporto film festival of Porto, Portugal, Björk received the Audience Choice award for the music video.[27]

Live performances

Björk presented the song —and three more songs off the then-unreleased Homogenic— at the Tibetan Freedom Concert on 6 June 1997, as a sneak peek of the album. She performed with Mark Bell, who was raised at the rear of the stage surrounded by keyboards and sequencers, and with the Icelandic String Octet conducted by Eumir Deodato at one side of the stage.[28] She wore a pink dress designed by Hussein Chalayan, which she would later wear in the video for "Bachelorette" and photoshoots.[29][30] That July, Björk performed the whole album for a press conference and presentation concert regarding Homogenic at the Old Truman Building, an old beer factory in London, wearing the same outfit.[31][32] During the brief Homogenic Promotional Tour, which took place from 31 August to 10 September 1997, "Hunter" was the opening track of the set.[33] Björk also performed the track with the Icelandic String Octet and Mark Bell on the British TV show Later... with Jools Holland, a performance that was included in the 2003 DVD release of the same name.[34]

The song was part of the set list of the Homogenic Tour which Björk embarked with Mark Bell and the Icelandic String Octet from late 1997 to early 1999. A performance of "Hunter" at the Cambridge Corn Exchange during the tour was included in the video release Live in Cambridge (2001).[35] Björk's June 1998 performance of the song in Paris was released in Homogenic Live, a live album of the tour included in the box set Live Box (2003).[34] "Hunter" was also performed —usually as the opening track— during the Greatest Hits Tour of 2003,[36] which once again featured the Icelandic String Octet, but with the addition of Vespertine World Tour collaborators Matmos and Zeena Parkins.[37]

"Hunter" was also performed during the Volta Tour (2007–08),[38] a tour she undertook with Mark Bell, Jónas Sen, Damian Taylor, Chris Corsano and a 10 piece female brass band.[39] Several of the concerts were part of festivals, including Coachella, Glastonbury and Rock en Seine, among others. Live performances of "Hunter" during the tour were included in the box set Voltaïc (2009), specifically the CD Songs from the Volta Tour Performed Live at the Olympic Studios and the DVD The Volta Tour ("Live in Paris").[40] The track was also part of the set list of Björk's latest tour, the Biophilia Tour (2011–13), whose schedule featured both a residency format and a conventional stage format for the festival dates. "Hunter" was performed mainly at festival dates and outdoor facilities.

Usage in media and cover versions

"Hunter" was used in the 1998 film The X-Files, directed by Rob Bowman. It was subsequently included in the official soundtrack, The X-Files: The Album, which appeared in several charts upon its release.[41]

In 2005, American rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars covered the song and placed it as a bonus track on their second studio album, A Beautiful Lie. The song was not originally a part of the album, but was recorded and added to the track listing after the album leaked several months before it was to be released.[42] Lyrically, it changes the word "Scandinavian" for "American" in the line "I thought I could organize freedom/How Scandinavian of me!", and the line "You just didn't know me" was added towards the end of the song. Brian Orloff from the Tampa Bay Times was impressed with the cover version, writing that Thirty Seconds to Mars erects "riveting tension" in its "almost trip-hop" rendition of the song.[43] Rock Sound magazine also responded positively to the track and described it as "an absinthe-soaked techno rendering."[44] Kaj Roth from Melodic felt that the band "really caught the spirit" of the song;[45] however, Kirsty Krampf of DIY thought it was "a criminal re-hash."[46] This version peaked at number 29 on the Polish Music Charts.[47]
