White Noise and all of Derbyshire's work in the BBC Radiophonic Workshop are god tier

On the dance end, I've been wearing the **** out of Burial's Untrue lately.

One of my favorite albums by Röyksopp , I totally love the songs titled ''Eple'', "Sparks" and ''Poor Leno''.
A truly magnificent album - warm, deep and melodic !
