   About The Story of Modern Farming
.......The Story of Modern Farming..... Chapter One: Louise Dam Eckardt Jensen & Jessica Sligter.... Something is always cooking in the kitchen! Over the 3 oclock coffee, gossip is exchanged. People whine and nag, cuddle and kiss; kids run around and old people sit, silently drinking hard liquor from small glasses. The story of modern farming derive sounds from these kitchen stories. Sounds that typify children, drunk people, confidential conversations, they use to paint their musical pictures. To tell stories about our modern farming. .......................Chapter Two: Eiríkur Ólafsson & Jessica Sligter...... honk honk, bleep bleep. Confusion. My eyes are watery and hurt from staring at the lit screen. Tickticktickticktick. My belly's full of sugar and my coffee's never right. Too hot or too cold. too hot or too cold. too hot or too cold. too hot or too cold...................... ..........The Story of Modern Farming's DEBUT-Record, "SOMEONE NEW", is released by the French label 'D'Autres Cordes Records'........One of the tunes will also be released on Rune Grammofon's jubileum release, a double cd + artbook, released in May 2008. Look out!
