New Röyksopp (Feat Fever Ray) Video - "This Must Be It"
Röyksopp's futuristic "The Girl & The Robot" video starred a lonesome stay-at-home Robyn longing for her electro-mechanical man. "This Must Be It" includes the voice of Karin Dreijer Andersson, but instead of Fever Ray, the Filip and Andreas Nilsson-directed video for the Junior standout focuses on folks in loincloths and Runar (who?), a motorcycling drummer who battles naysayers and "arrows" to bring rhythm to said loincloths. I'm told this is all something Norwegians will understand. Either way, very triumphant.
The percussion gets more complicated on the bubbling, scattershot remix of the track by Stuart Price, aka the Thin White Duke:

Score = 0
I'll admit the video is a bit of a "huh?!?" But its also pretty fearless in it's weirdness, which is one of the reasons I love this group. I can not wait to hear the other remixes. The Apparat & Rex the Dog ones especially. :)
Score = 0
The LehtMoJoe remix is all over hypem, it's pretty rad as well
Score = 0
