Royksopp – Happy Up Here
Royskopp are one of those bands that I unfortunately know nothing about. Well, I know they're pretty huge. It's also possible I vaguely recall 'Remind Me', but maybe not. It happens.
Fighting through uncertain expectation then, 'Happy Up Here' feels like a warm, seamlessly poppy electronic dive into twinkling night-time lights. The dreamy, listless vocals could almost be a stoned, less affected Claudio Sanchez, while the music feels indebted to Daft Punk and Funkadelic (not much of a shock, given the Parliament sample).
Sorry, there was an error.
