"The song is about having the animal instinct inside you come to life. Running with them, joining them - the instinct taking over, giving you freedom and making you forget about your human self and all things we humans keep around us in the modern society.

I think humans need to let go a bit more, shake their bodies more often, like the animals do.. It's a beautiful thing really.

Sometimes when you look at the world, and you see what we've done to it, the way many of us hurt the world we live in, innocent animals, even our own kind! And that kind of makes you want to follow the wolves instead. At least for one night."

Aurora Aksnes is a 18 year old girl from Bergen, Norway. She strives to write music that can inspire people, through idiosyncratic tales of struggle, love, and all that lies in between.

"I had one day in a NYC studio to start a song from scratch, with Tunji in the room. I knew him because one of my dancers was listening to "For us" on tour - what a striking song. I thought : even though we have different lives, we both write about feeling lonely, about watching everything from this weird angle - when you feel oddly out of the picture. Anger came to me as something I could try to write about - articulating it is probably the first step towards action. No Harm Is Done is a picture of the moment before : before something happens, before we choose in which fight we want to engage. But for now, our hands are just slowly raising - it's a warning for what's about to come. After that, everything came quickly : the melody, the rhythm, the colour of it all."

J'avais une journée de studio à New-York, une journée pour écrire une chanson, dans la même pièce que Tunji - dont je connaissais le travail car un de mes danseurs hochait souvent de la tête sur "For us". De son écriture, j'avais retenu la mélancolie, le romantisme, même - l'extrême solitude, le sentiment de n'appartenir à rien, et de ne jamais se relier. C'est quelque chose que je peux comprendre - cette colère, cette frustration. No harm is done est ce moment suspendu, juste avant que quelque chose se passe. Le muscle se tend, l'oeil est sévère, la main se lève - et c'est ensuite qu'il faut choisir le combat à mener, le risque à prendre. C'est peut-être la première fois que je m'autorise à être menaçante, et c'est sans doute parce que je n'ai plus vraiment peur de prendre position…
