Norwegian artist Susanna’s album “Jeg vil hjem til menneskene” (I want to go home to the humans) from 2011 was re-released digitally and on exclusive vinyl edition in November 2022. Last year Susanna could tell that her “Jeg vil hjem til menneskene” Susanna sings Gunvor Hofmo-album was removed from all digital platforms and the rest of the CDs destructed in 2018, due to a dispute with the original record label about accounting for the release. Susanna released the demos for the album in November 2021, to make the songs public and available to her audience. It is with great pleasure we announce that the rights for the album is bought out, and the record is re-released digitally in addition to a beautiful vinyl-edition on 180 gr black vinyl and cover made by Kim Hiorthøy. Susanna’s music set to poetry by one of the most influential Norwegian modernist poets Gunvor Hofmo, was recorded at Atlantis Studio in Stockholm in 2010, with the musicians Ståle Storløkken (Supersilent / Elephant9), Jo Berger Myhre (Splashgirl / Nils Petter Molvær), Erland Dahlen (Nils Petter Molvær among a bunch of artists) and Hans Magnus Ryan (Motorpsycho). The recording was produced and mixed by Helge Sten at Audio Virus LAB. Reception in the Norwegian press: “- en voldsom, nydelig og vond plate som også bør gi Hofmos diktning fortjent renessanse. [5/6 Mode Steinkjer / Dagsavisen]“ “- Susanna fra The Magical Orchestra har løftet frem Gunvor Hofmos mørke, lengselsfulle poesi til et større publikum. Ikke bare det, Susanna Wallumrød har gjort flere av diktene til nydelige sanger. [5/6 Ann Kristin Ødegård / BA]“ “- Når man gir seg i kast med diktene til en så markant lyriker, bør første bud være at man fanger stemningen i diktene og viderefører dem i musikken. Det gjør Wallumrød, ofte med «dyster glans». [5/6 Øyvind Rønning / Dagbladet]“
