Discovering Röyksopp

I guess I need to go buy Melody A.M.
I wound up with a copy of Röyksopp’s The Understanding and am quite taken by its melodious whimsy. The two reviews I’ve read say it doesn’t compare to their first CD. Though I do like the homages to synthpop as I’ve enjoyed the visible allusions in Jamourquai’s Dynamite.
Perhaps my liking them is just a sign of low taste (which is not the worst of crimes).
I’ve been a bit blue of late, it has been a tough few years so I may be vulnerable to light, happy music. I’m not going to regret enjoying anything that makes me smile.
