Tri Angle records threw itself a fifth anniversary party in New York on Friday evening with DJ sets lined up by some of its artists including Forest Swords, Holy Other, and Haxan Cloak. The party, which was part of Red Bull Music Academy Festival New York 2015 (and located in “the basement and vault of the former J.P. Morgan building across the street from the New York Stock Exchange”), jumped up a notch when Björk decided to join in on the fun and DJ for her friends and partygoers.

Today, the multi-talented Icelandic artist released the official audio of her not-so-private dance party along with a sweet message for the indie label on its birthday:

i would like to wish tri angle label an incredibly sublime birthday and thank for having been invited to dj at their party . couldnt possibly been more honoured than to play in that company !!! the mix i played was my present to them : merging together some of my fav beats last year with some of my fav vocalists doing some of their best songs :

!!! this is my tune-tinder !!!
