Haha, me too. I mention them to basically anyone else I know and they're like "who?"

You Don't Have A Clue so has to be my favourite song at the moment.
What's your favourite song by them?

Mm, thanks

I sent you a message on Last.fm, by the way

Paul Kelly, 'Bradman'. He's such a wonderful songwriter and an integral part to Australia's contemporary culture and sound.

Also 'How Soon Is Now', by The Smiths. I've only begun listening to them recently but I'm hooked on this track already.

Kings of Leons are badass. I haven't heard of them until a few days ago and they blew my mind away. I also like how the lead singer criticized mainstream Americans musical tastes saying they only like "hip hop and kid pop." It's damn true haha.

Awesome track!

At the moment I'm hooked on M83 - Don't Save Us From The Flames

Awesome song. You should check out the album Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts. That album is surreal.

Absolutely love it, I just listened to that album for the first time this evening and it blew me away. The vocal slicing on "0078h" was unbelievable and that closing track was perfect.

Also a fan of Into the Wild I see, heaps good! I just downloaded the soundtrack to that last night, those slow acoustic pieces are gorgeous.

Loads of people know Royksopp, they just don't know it, if you get me. I get a lot of "Who?"s, but play them 'Eple' or 'So Easy' and they'll know it. Would have loved to been at the Southbank show a few months back, Royksopp and Fever Ray is heaven to me.

You Don't Have a Clue is a hidden gem, the ending gives me shivers. Favourite one of Junior has to be either Vision One or This Must Be It, but from all of their stuff - Remind Me. Have a listen to Trentemoller's remix of 'What Else Is There?', I thought he did a pretty good job.

Looking forward to Senior?

Good picks. The ending to You Don't Have A Clue also gives me shivers Some of my other favourites from Royksopp have to be What Else Is There? Only This Moment, Go Away, Circuit Breaker, Happy Up Here etcc.

I know what you mean about 'knowing about them' but not really 'knowing them'. The first track I downloaded of theirs was Eple. I just thought 'Oh, I recognise this'. If ever I mentioned them to someone I know though, they wouldn't have a clue. Their sort of sound gets used on adverts a lot over here.

Over here? I'm in the same country as you. Adverts are exactly how I found Royksopp, and quite a few of the bands I like. I noticed on your profile you like Sigur Ros, one of the best bands I've ever come across! I find Scandinavia has some of the most amazing music, something must tick in their brain that produces perfection. They have a new album coming out as well, I must see them live. Oh, and Imogen Heap! Can I keep you in charge of my CD rack?

Oh dear, lol sorry I didn't even look at your location. I do apologise

Mm I've found a lot of my favourite music through adverts too.
I love Sigur Ros atm. Saeglopur being my favourite song ever <3 And Imogen Heap, who comes from near me She's so talented.

What are your favourite Sigur Ros/Imogen Heap songs?

Can I keep you in charge of my CD rack? You seem to like a lot of the same stuff as me

Sounds odd, but Untitled #8 is my favourite, from ( ). When we had that week where it just snowed all the time, I got stuck in a traffic jam for 2 hours on my own and all I listened to was Sigur Ros, was absolute heaven.

If Imogen Heap comes from near you, that means you must be a Londoner? I'm only down the road. I'll be in charge of your rack, errr.. CD rack. I'll swing my guitar at anyone who dares steal, grr! Oh, she has a new album out soon doesn't she, hopefully see her on tour as well.

It's such a relaxing song I made a snowman with my best friend that time it snowed, thought I'd best make the most of it since we never get any snow. :]

Yeah, I'm an East Londoner. I originate from the Barking/Dagenham area. She comes from Romford, so it's just down the road really :]

LOL. well technically I don't have a cd rack since it's all about the illegal downloads

I'd love to see Imogen live, she's so unique! Do you have any favourite songs from her? Personally, my fav has to be either The Walk or Let Go, from Frou Frou.

I couldn't make a snowman, I didn't have any gloves. So I went and bought me some blue and black stripy ones! A bit late however..

East Laaahhndaaahn?! I'll be in Romford sometime this year, I follow ice hockey and I can't wait 'til we play Romford. I'm surprised you're not a West Ham fan actually.

I can't believe you downloaded it illegally! I downloaded Junior, but I thought "Oh, I better buy the CD, I wouldn't want Hysteric to be ashamed of me", I went out and bought it today.

I was going to go see Imogen in Oxford a few years ago but couldn't in the end. We also share the same Imogen song as our favourite, I love the Walk! I also love Headlock, and Shine.

Do you want to start PM'ing the convo before it becomes the Hysteric and Oppi thread?

Tommy Emmanuel, the man really is amazing



Much love for Boards of Canada, great video too, so inspiring given that jump is real footage

Royksopp is definitely one of my favorites! I love the "What else is there?" remix. I listen to my Royksopp radio on Pandora all the time! haha And I gotta check out those other Passion Pit songs since I've been enjoying them too much. If you haven't gone to pandora.com yet you should since that's where I found out about Passion Pit. Found out about lots of great artists/bands from that site.

I love all these groups, except I've never heard of The Polish Ambassador, me likey.
