To Jans, thanks for the tip on Shining! They sound quite interesting. I've already found the albums on Spotify and will check them out shortly.

To rostasi, thanks for your recommendations also! I've heard a bit of Høst which is alright despite some very cheesy lyrics, but Thule is a band I haven't really listened to. I'll check out Natt

Supersilent I've never heard about, but I'm not sure it's my cup of tea. Though I listen to a lot of flavours of experimental music, I have to admit I have a fondness for harmonies and melodies. Röyksopp are of course very famous here and I think the last Norwegian pop song I remember noticing and liking was one of theirs featuring Swedish singer Karin Dreijer Andersson from The Knife who has quite the unique voice.




To Urban, I've heard of Kings of Convenience of course, but never actually checked them out. Toxic Girl is quite a pretty pop tune, laid back and melodic with nice arrangements. I like it Putting them on my to-do list.


Thanks again, guys.

The first Röyksopp album Melody A.M. is a great album and got a lot of attention around the time it was released, but unfortunately it was kind of downhill for them after that. The follow-up album The Understanding veers to close to mainstream dance-pop for my tastes and what I've heard from their more recent stuff hasn't really impressed me.

You might recognise this little tune:
