An Electro pop Type of Mushroom: Röyksopp …
Röyksopp is a band that emerged from the cold climate of Norway but warms us with electronic breezes. … Röyksopp, formed by Brundtland and Berge, entered the music scene in 1998 and released their debut album, Melody A.M., in 2002.
The name of the band is of course Norwegian … But what does it mean? Let's say it right away: Röyksopp is the name given to "a kind of mushroom that looks like brown dust". It is a small type of mushroom and if you step on this mushroom, it explodes as a "puff" and spreads its seeds around. Now you are stepping on that mushroom; puff... …
There is an interesting story behind the founding of the group. Brundtland and Berge were two friends from school. However, for some reason, they decided to make music when they met again years later.
By the way, we know why they decided to make music years later. Let's share it with you …
In 1998, the two decided to establish Röyksopp while flying at low altitude over a snow-covered plain. While they were flying at low altitude, we think they saw that mushroom and they landed on Röyksopp sounding as "puff". Here is an amazing electronic music band… Scandinavia is truly full of surprises. …
Where we were? Yes, in 1998 … Founded in 1998, Röyksopp released their first album "Melody A.M." in 2001. With singles such as "Eple", "Poor Leno", "Sparks" and "Remind Me" included in this album, they managed to take their place in the UK charts. They also gained recognition with their experimental videos and carried this success to the '2002 MTV Europe Music Awards' and won the "Best Video Clip" award with the video clip "Remind Me". Röyksopp, who released many performances, remixes and albums after this period, continued to maintain their success with the contributions of guest vocalists. They revealed the re-form change of electronic music and its reflections on our day, and all their musical works were met with admiration.
By 2010, their last album, "Senior", was adorned with more obscure elements. Featured songs on the album include "The Fear" and "Tricky Two".
One way or another, even if your preference is not electronic music, Röyksopp, whose songs will make you love this genre, will attract you. You may have unwittingly swayed to and fro with their song in a place or murmured "the song is so good".
Regardless of what anyone says, Röyksopp contributed to the realization and shape of electronic music with the difference they made in the music world.
In short, they spread their dust all over the world due to a small mushroom and scatter the seeds of electronic music.
