At least of late, Norwegian dance duo Röyksopp have kept at a one album a year pace (Junior in 2009 and Senior in 2010). Commendable productivity aside, unless they unveil some out-of-left-field plans, 2011 may very well pass without a new Röyksopp record.
However, that doesn’t mean the pair aren’t busy making new music. The outfit recently unveiled through their official site a new track called “Shores of Easy”. Performed only once before during a March in-studio appearance for KCRW, the chilled out number is best listened to, according to the group, at the “borderline state between being awake and being asleep the state where everything seems possible.”
The band also noted that the track “is not indicative of things to come ” Maybe waiting isn’t all that bad after all, folks.
