Röyksopp - “True Electric” EU Tour

Living in Norway it’s hard not to know about RÖYKSOPP - their album ‘Melody AM’, released in 2001, made them famous both inside the country and internationally. In their music they mix different styles such as Electronica, House, R&B and Pop and despite that I usually visit only Metal shows, I was really excited to see this duo from Tromsø live in Oslo on the 25th of February - a sold-out show that was a part of RÖYKSOPP’s “True Electric” European tour.

Music & Performance
This evening at Spectrum arena was opened with a very nice DJ set that set a great mood for the rest of the show. Afterwards, RÖYKSOPP opened their set with the track ‘Impossible’ from their latest release ‘Profound Mysteries’. The album is a trilogy and the first part of it was released in April last year as a comprehensive audio-visual experience with music, film, an interactive visualizer, secret CDs and, an impressive guest list on vocals. Live show this evening wasn’t an exception about that - the duo was joined on stage by Astrid S, Gunhild Ramsay Kovacs and Susanne Sundfør. Also, pianist Jørn Øien took part in the concert.

One of the most prominent parts of the show were the dancers. And even though fans’ opinions differ about their performance this evening, I personally found it really energetic and contemporary, despite seeming a bit improvised on occasions - in my opinion it only added to the charm. The audience was joyfully dancing too - it’s hard to find so many happy people in one place these days. It really felt like that party you don’t want to end.
