The subject was not roses but great first impressions , including the one Matthew Sweet made with "Dinosaur Act," Track 1 on Altered Beast , his brilliant but critically and commercially overlooked 1993 album. That post got me thinking about roses that never fully bloomed (I guess the subject is roses, after all) and stars that should have been supernovas. I'll never understand why Ke$ha is famous and Luciana isn't. Why Mariah Carey and sometimes Janet Jackson ruled the [...]
After seeing that exquisite live performance of Robyn's "Be Mine," I have been on such a Robyn kick the last few days. Check out a recent television appearance of Robyn with Royksopp to perform the Norwegian's duo new single, "The Girl And The Robot." Just as sublime. (Make sure to watch it in HD.)

We had alot to say with Royksopp 's recent album Junior but we shall focus on one of their tracks "T he Girl And The Robot " which features Robyn on vocals which have been taking the world by storm of late. We feel that Robyn's career has taken a much better turn just by featuring with the duo and this track is testament to that. They don't have an official video out for this track as yet but don't fret, we have [...]

Hi y'all. I know I know I've been so lazy and haven't posted in a while. I am now a graduate! HORRAAAH!!! No more exams for the rest of my life, I hope. And, to celebrate, obviously lots of alcohol was involved but slothfulness, slothiness? too. Yup, I love to celebrate by downloading 50gbs worth of TV that I've missed out on while being in uni (WE ARE ALL THE PIRATE BAY)! It's been awesome to just sit at home all day and do nothing but watch TV/movies. I've got How I Met Your Mother, all the seasons of South [...]

Anoche el dj * incluyó en su set una canción que me dio en el alma y casi me arranco el dedo índice de un mordisco, y lo único que tenía en la mente era la imagen de Adriana arrancándose la piel del rostro al bailar, pero ella no estaba ahí. La canción de la que hablo es The girl and the robot , incluida en Junior , el último álbum de Röyksopp y que cuenta con la voz de Robyn . [...]

El dueto Röksopp lanza hoy su nuevo sencillo " The Girl And The Robot " que contiene vocales de su compatriota Robyn . Ésta canción forma parte del álbum Junior que salió a la venta el sabado pasado y que será seguido por Senior más tarde en el año.
by charles poladian You know what time it is! Is it just me, or is this weekend shaping up to be classic? Fun in the sun and it is only April. May and June are gearing up, plenty of shoes coming off. The summer is just around the corner. Can you believe it? Well, you better. The weather is not the only thing that's kicking; we have plenty of treats in store for you. [...]

Raise your hand if you like Royksopp . Next, raise it up in righteous fashion if you dig Robyn . How about Starters DJs ? Lift up your mitts and wave 'em in the air! Are you arms getting tired yet? We featured Starters DJs quite some time ago, but Royksopp and Robyn are both regular staples here on the site. So when I got an email this morning with the HUGE subject line combining all three of these monstrously ill artists, I practically didn't [...]

Junior de Röyksopp es de lo más destacable de lo que nos viene dando el 2009, una de las primeras y fabulosas canciones que escuchamos primero fue "The Girl And The Robot" que contó con la participación de Robyn , esta aquí en vivo, y también la extraña portada del single, solo dale al Leer más.

Rokysopp hadn't done a TV show in seven or eight years. That all changed the other night, when they brought Robyn down to do one of their new highlights from their album Junior, "The Girl and the Robot." They rocked...
Después de 7 años de no hacer ninguna presentación en vivo para la televisión, los chicos de Röyksopp presentaron en vivo su canción "The Girl And The Robot" junto a la cantante Robyn , la canción es parte de su nuevo disco Junior . A continuación les dejo el video y cabe destacar que es un muy buen performance el que hacen estos chicos en vivo, a ver qué les parece. Comparte esta anotación

WATCH OR DIE Röyksopp - The Girl And The Robot (Live At Senkveld) new
Just to remind you that in other parts of the world, not only do Royksopp and Robyn get subcultural, critical love, they are geuine popstars to boot, look at this video of Norwegians Royksopp performing "The Girl and the Robot", the first live tv performance from the band in seven years. They also get some help on vocals from consitently saucy, fellow Scandinavian Robyn. [ Pitchfork ]

It seems the Norwegian duo have been pretty video camera shy since their support tour of Melody A.M. , so it makes sense that they broke their live TV abstinence on the track that Robyn guests on. She has a way of holding attention. ( Lykke Li would have been a good choice too.) Röyksopp brought Junior single " The Girl And The Robot " to Senkveld, Robyn played the girl, they played the robot. Makes sense. Continue reading Rökyssop's First TV Appearance in Seven Years Involves Robyn And [...]

One of the highlights of 2009 and it's only April.
I wrote a few weeks ago about that piece of electro-pop greatness that is the Royksopp/Robyn collaboration on The Girl And The Robot , but the post was later deleted by Blogger for no reason, since their was no illegal material involved. Whatever. Their live performance of the track is a good reason to re-post this truly fantastic song. It is released sometime in May in the UK, and I don't know if you can, but I can smell a big hit coming. Just to add [...]
If Musick were a dog it would be a pedigree, obviously, but it would also be like one with a bone. But only if bones were actually songs (metaphor fail). Basically, Royksopp's 'I'm In Love With A Robot' is one of the best pop singles we've heard in recent years, probably since 'With Every Heartbeat', which also featured the vocal talents of the incredibly amazing Robyn . Last Saturday Musick were guests of honour at the Ether Festival where we sat pride of place (well, 11 rows back) during Royksopp's headline set ( Fever Ray [...]

Apparently Røyksopp haven't performed on TV for seven years! Well, what better way to make a comeback is to perform "The Girl And The Robot" from their latest album 'Junior' on Swedish TV and actually bring Robyn along to do the vocals! "The Girl And The Robot" is still one of my favourite tracks of the moment, it's an almost perfect slice of ElectroPop. Do I smell a second single? 'Junior' is [...]
