Norwegian duette Röyksopp remunerated for the cold climes of their native Tromsø by making some of the warmest, most inviting downbeat electronica of the new millenary, exemplified by early singles like Eple and Poor Leno. The mate, Torbjørn Brundtland and Svein Berge, both grew up in Tromsø and began transcription in the early '90s. Local-made-good Geir Jenssen (aka Biosphere) provided charge and virtually convinced the twosome to record for R&S sublabel Apollo. After a few days apart, Brundtland and Berge met up once more in Bergen and re-formed Röyksopp in 1998.
The group released a few singles on Tellé, then gestural up to the magnanimous beat label Wall of Sound. The Röyksopp debut was 2001's Eple single; both "Eple" and another cut ("Poor Leno") earned slots on over a xII chillout compilations that year or the following. Their get-go full-length, Melody A.M., appeared in late 2001. After disbursal a few days acting live and remixing artists including Beck and Annie, Röyksopp returned with new material in 2005: the exclusive Only if This Moment heralded the summer release of the duo's second gear album, The Understanding, which featured more traditionally structured songs than their earlier mould. The alive EP Röyksopp's Night Out appeared a yr after.
