Linda Perry and FJØRA talk re-working 4 Non Blondes' 'What's Up?' for a new teaser for Blumhouse Productions' new series of horror movies

, particularly in the horror genre: “It’s these very classic melodies turned into suspenseful thrillers, and that’s why Fjøra was the prime suspect to do it,” she says. “You don’t know her, and you will start investigating her, but she’s not trying to sound like a trailer. It’s just her sound — very cinematic and theatrical.”

Fjøra is a classically trained pianist, and that background has seeped into the music she makes now — vast, cinematic compositions with electronic elements and some pop leanings . For her take on “What’s Up?” Fjøra says she wanted to “play up the lullaby-esque nature” of the song’s classic hook and keep much of its melodic core, without being beholden to it and still leaving room to pepper in contemporary sound design techniques.

Citing the work of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross as an inspiration, Fjøra says: “Sound design is powerful because it actually plays with silence in conjunction with music, and I think that contrast creates that tension that we feel. It was important to me to use as close to the same melodies as possible, but then underneath, the harmonic complexities are shifting.”

With all these elements, Fjøra created a version of “What’s Up?” that feels wholly unlike the original, although Perry is effusive with her praise: “Honestly, it’s more the style of music that I’m about,” she says. “I love cinematic, I love creepy unexpected little tones. She managed to capture me and the song — I still know it’s the song, of course — but I’m not missing my version at all, because I’m very intrigued on where she’s going.”series are set to premiere in October.
