I always feel that I owe to any artist I work with something specific. In the case of Röyksopp I really owe them the fact that they pushed me to start working on my own doing string arrangements in the privacy of my studio and not relying on any assistance and or technical support.

This was due to the fact that because of time issues there was just no chance for me to travel to Norway to work with them.

Throughout the whole session, which lasted several months, I never met the boys, but had the most inspiring phone calls with Tørbjorn, after sending him files to get some feedback.

This was in between Coldplay‘s studio times by the way and it helped me enormously to develop a technique for recording strings which I then used very successfully for Viva La Vida.

My contribution to Junior? Four tracks: The Girl And The Robot, Röyksopp Forever, You Don’t Have A Clue and Silver Cruiser.
