· ‘Senior’ is the counterpart to last year's critically
acclaimed 'Junior’. More introspective and freeform
than its poppier partner and fully instrumental, the
Nordic electronic pioneers Svein Berge and
Torbjorn Brundtland recorded 'Senior' at the same
time as 'Junior' and it finds Royksopp in fine form.
· Royksopp explain: "The two albums ('Junior' and
'Senior') have a kinship, in that they represent
Röyksopp's two very different artistic expressions.
'Junior' - with emphasis on vocals, accessible
melodies and harmonies, has the energy,
the inquisitive temper and confident "hey-ho, let's
go!“ attitude of youth, whereas 'Senior' is the
introverted, dwelling and sometimes graceful
counterpart – brimful with dark secrets and
distorted memories, insisting "I'm old, I've got
experience...”.
