Happy Up Here (Video)
Awesome awesome awesome music video. Röyksopp has such a solid sound and aesthetic and this music video follows suit. The stylization and concept are spectacular; the use of Space Invaders in the real world is a fantastic idea! I love seeing old video games come to life. If you've never seen the 1993 film, Super Mario Bros, I recommend you find it.
This track is from Röyksopp's Junior, their third and most recent album. Be on the lookout for Junior's counterpart, a new album, Senior. It was originally slotted to be released late 2009, but has since been kept under the radar with little info out there. It said to be more instrumental and atmospheric, much different than the bright and energetic Junior. Svein Berge (half of Röyksopp) called it "the senile sibling of Junior who lives in the attic."
ALSO, they just started this “Track Of The Month” which they refer to as a service where fans can get their hands on some free, unreleased & exclusive Röyksopp material. You have to sign up, but it is totally worth it.
