Tiga kata untuk album ini: Brillian, brillian dan brillian! Meskipun saya tidak yakin jika album ini lebih baik dari Melody A.M. (2002) yang memenangi berbagai penghargaan, namun secara terpisah, album ini merupakan salah satu rilisan terbaik di tahun 2009. Dibuka oleh "Happy Up Here", album ini dengan cepat membuatmu merasakan atmosfer Röyksopp dari set audiomu. Röyksopp mampu menghidupkan momen-momen imajinatif yang bersemangat berkat melodi-melodi yang rancak, rasa tekno-futuristik, dan tidak seperti dua album sebelumnya, di album ini mereka juga memberikan sentuhan disko 80'an (kadang-kadang membuat saya teringat pada ABBA).

Seperti biasanya, Torbjørn Brundtland dan Svein Berge melibatkan beberapa artis untuk mengisi vokal dan dalam album ini mereka melibatkan Robyn dalam "Happy Up Here", Lykke Li dalam "Miss It So Much", Karin Dreijer-Andersson dari The Knife dalam "This Must Be It" dan "Tricky Tricky", dan Anneli Drecker dalam "Vision One", "You Don’t Have A Clue" dan "True To Life". Album ini merupakan sebuah comeback yang hebat dari para jamur asab (artian secara literal dari Röyksopp), dan 2009 seakan adalah tahun comeback dari "The Bergen's Wave". Secara keseluruhan, saya memberi nilai 8.5 dari 10 untuk album ini dan album ini saya labeli "patut dicoba".

PS: Jika kamu merasa kalau lagu-lagunya terdengar aneh, coba dengarkan lagi untuk kali kedua, dan kamu akan sadar kalo nada-nada tertentu terus berputar-putar dikepala sepanjang hari. (Dony)

Three words for this album: Brilliant, brilliant and brilliant! Though I don't convince that this album could be better than their multi-award winning Melody A.M. (2001), but separately, this album is one of the greatest release in 2009. Opened by "Happy Up Here", the album quickly spread Röyksopp's atmosphere through your audio set. Röyksopp delivers a truly crafted energizing moments of imaginations in this album thanks to their eclectic melodies, futuristic techno flavour, and unlike their previous album, this one also gives a touch of classic 80's disco feeling (sometimes reminds me to ABBA).

As usual, Torbjørn Brundtland and Svein Berge features several artist in their album and in this one they're featuring Robyn in "Happy Up Here", Lykke Li in "Miss It So Much", The Knife's Karin Dreijer-Andersson in "This Must Be It" and "Tricky Tricky", and Anneli Drecker in "Vision One", "You Don’t Have A Clue" & "True To Life". This album surely a great comeback from the smoke mushroom (literal meaning of Röyksopp), and 2009 seems to be the comeback of "The Bergen's Wave" (at least for Röyksopp and Kings of Convenience). Overall, I give this album 8.5 out of 10 and I labelled this one as "worth to try".

PS: If you feel that the sounds a little bit odd, try it again for the second time, the you will realise some tunes playing in your mind and bugs
you for the rest of the day =D (Dony)
