More introspective and freeform than its poppier partner and fully instrumental, the Nordic electronic pioneers Svein Berge and Torbjorn Brundtland recorded &#8217;Senior&#8217; at the same time as &#8217;Junior&#8217; and it finds Royksopp in fine form.<\/p>\n<p>Royksopp explain: &#8221;The two albums (&#8217;Junior&#8217; and &#8217;Senior&#8217;) have a kinship, in that they represent R\u00f6yksopp&#8217;s two very different artistic expressions. &#8217;Junior&#8217; &#8211; with emphasis on vocals, accessible melodies and harmonies, has the energy, the inquisitive temper and confident &#8221;hey-ho, let&#8217;s go!&#8221;-attitude of youth, whereas &#8217;Senior&#8217; is the introverted, dwelling and sometimes graceful counterpart &#8211; brimfull with dark secrets and distorted memories, insisting &#8221;I&#8217;m old, I&#8217;ve got experince&#8230;\u201d.  Senior&#8217; is furthermore an album about age, horses and being subdued &#8211; with devils breathing down your neck.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8217;Senior&#8217; was written as a complete set of tracks, each designated to take a specific part in the bigger piece. All individual tracks have been made with the intent of coexisting with the other tracks on the album.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;Each track is equally as important as its predecessor and successor. We feel that none of the tracks should be regarded outside of this context, ie. separated from the rest of the album. Quite a &#8221;brave&#8221;\/stupid thing to do in this day &#038; age of iPods and cherrypicking, one might suggest. We couldn&#8217;t agree more &#8211; hell that&#8217;s even probably why we did it.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>F\u00f6r mer information och f\u00f6r att kolla p\u00e5 klippet:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.royksopp.com\/senior\">www.royksopp.com\/senior<\/a><\/p>\n<p>L\u00e4s \u00e4ven andra bloggares \u00e5sikter om <a href=\"http:\/\/bloggar.se\/om\/musik\" rel=\"tag\">musik<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/bloggar.se\/om\/skivnytt\" rel=\"tag\">skivnytt<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/bloggar.se\/om\/R%F8yksopp\" rel=\"tag\">R\u00f8yksopp<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>15 september \u00e4r ett datum du ska l\u00e4gga p\u00e5 minnet om du gillar det norska syntpopbandet R\u00f8yksopp. D\u00e5 sl\u00e4pper R\u00f8yksopp sitt nya album, som heter Senior.
