Röyksopp er klar til at udsende deres modstykke til sidste års kritikerroste "Junior" album.
Mere indadvendt og freeform end det poppede "Junior" og rent instrumentalt!,
De nordiske elektroniske pionerer Svein Berge og Torbjørn Brundtland optog "Senior" samtidig
som "Junior", hvilket kan høres som samme legende tilgang til melodierne - bare meget mørkere i
tonerne.
Röyksopp siger selv om "Senior": "The two albums ("Junior" og "Senior") have a kinship, in that
they represent Röyksopp's two very different artistic expressions. 'Junior' - with emphasis on
vocals, accessible melodies and harmonies, has the energy, the inquisitive temper and confident
"hey-ho, let's go!" attitude of youth, whereas 'Senior' is the introverted, dwelling and sometimes
graceful counterpart, brimful with dark secrets and distorted memories, insisting "I'm old, I've got
experience...”. Senior' is furthermore an album about age, horses and being subdued - with
devils breathing down your neck."
"Each track is equally as important as its predecessor and successor. We feel that none of the
tracks should be regarded outside of this context, i.e. separated from the rest of the album. Quite
a brave/stupid thing to do in this day and age of iPods and cherrypicking, one might suggest. We
couldn't agree more - hell that's even probably why we did it."
