Running To The Sea is the only song I know by them and it NEEDS to be used!


Well then, hopefully you're in for 9 more treats along the way! biggrin.gif

Running to the Sea is one of my all time favourite songs though so you've got a good starting point happy.gif

Running To The Sea, Monument, The Girl & The Robot, Never Ever all amazing.

Honestly Royksopp delivered probably the most amazing show I have ever seen when I saw them in 2017. Still in awe after that.

Thanks to everyone who voted for (or enjoyed) The Girl and the Robot! happy.gif


This next round is a really tough one as Röyksopp tend to put little ambient tracks at the end of their albums. I've had a look through and I think these are the options I've got... any help as to which is the least bad option will be welcome!!! laugh.gif










I'm thinking I've got to go with Something In My Heart by default. Although I do like the little piano effort in the second video and Inside The Idle Hour Club, neither seem suited for this.

Round 3 is collaborations / remixes.

So almost every track they do is a collaboration so this should be easy... but I feel like that's not sticking to the spirit of the round so I'm thinking of potentially sending a remix of a collaboration! These are the ones that I'm most familiar with and would love you guys to help me decide please... HEEELLLLPPPPPP!


ONE • REMIND ME feat ERLAND ØYE (Someone Else's Radio Edit)




TWO • WHAT ELSE IS THERE? feat KARIN DEIJER (JACQUES LE CONT RADIO EDIT)




THREE • MONUMENT feat ROBYN (Inevitable End Remix)

ALSO please let me know if I'm making it too difficult for myself to aim for remix and collab as there's so many other possibilities

I'd use one of the collabs with Robyn

Do it Again or that Monument remix,
I'd prefer Do It Again myself though

I'm saving Do It Again for another round as there's one round coming up that really ought to be easy for everyone but Do It Again is by far my favourite option for it.

i'm liking that What Else Is There remix! afaik it's one of their bigger songs and maybe the voters will appreciate the dancier spin idk. Monument is good too ofc, can't go wrong with picking a Robyn track

Thanks 7! That’s where I was leaning towards too as I wanted to try and send a different range of collaborators - I think there’s a risk that Karin’s vocal style won’t be for everyone but hopefully there’ll be some people who like her happy.gif

Obvs The Knife are amazing in my eyes heart.gif

'Never Ever' is my absolute fave of theirs, that might be a good one to start off with unless you want to go with a Robyn collab.


Thinking of going with Never Ever this round as Free Choice is the only category it will fit in happy.gif

Plus I haven’t given Susanne Sundfør a chance to shine yet

ROUND FOUR: FREE CHOICE

NEVER EVER with SUSANNE SUNDFØR





Continuing the trend of showcasing a different vocalist in the contest, Susanne Sundfør steps up to join Röyksopp for round four of the contest. Susanne is one of my favourite pop acts of recent years - if you haven't already heard it, please do check out her album Ten Love Songs for an example of just how fabulous she is. wub.gif

This probably demonstrates the band at the poppier end of their material but it's up against some real heavyweights in this round so we'll have to see how it can fare. I'm just hoping that you love the track as much as I do happy.gif

Thank you everyone that voted for Never Ever, it finished second which is our best finish and I am over the moon! wub.gif


This next one is going to be a tough round I think as I have to send an album track. I've selected a few that I think are possibilities but I'm really not sure what to choose. Views would be really helpful as I'll probably have to send another of these potentials later in the game too.


Miss It So Much with Lykke Li




Alpha Male




Every Little Thing with Robyn




Circuit Breaker




You Don't Have A Clue with Anneli Drecker




Save Me with Susanne Sundfør





Röyksopp Forever





PLEEEEAAAASSSSEEEEE HELP! wub.gif

My favourite is probably You Don't Have A Clue but that's after I've become familiar with everything, I can't really remember it being very immediate though.
