One of the most celebrated & innovative artists in the elctronic genre, Norway’s Royksopp return with the highly anticipated follow-up to their classic deubt Melody AM (an album named one of the best albums of 2001 by Rolling Stone, GQ, Entertainment Weekly, Jockey Slut and more) and The Understanding, which combined lush atmospherics with enthralling pop.
JUNIOR is Royksopp’s most accomplished release yet, an inspired and ambitious musical confection fusing pure pop hooks with “technoperatic” dancefloor slammers. Featuring a team of top female vocalists/collaborators including Swedish superstar Robyn, Lykke Li, Karim Dreijer (The Knife) as well as fellow Norwegian Annell Drecker (who appeared on Royksopp’s debut Melody A.M.).
