This is the debut album from the Norweigian electronic duo geniuses Röyksopp (Torbjørn Brundtland and Svein Berge). This album definitely changed the way i hear music, Erlend did vocals on "Poor Leno" and "Remind Me" two great singles. If you haven't heard this, you should.
Jimmy Tamborello(Dntel) is also part of Figurine, an electro-pop band consisting of Tamborello as James Figurine, Meredith Figurine and David Figurine. The three were high school friends and created music based mostly on the theme of long distance love. This is The Heartfelt their second and best album, i would have to say.
James Figurine also realeased a solo album entitled Mistake Mistake Mistake Mistake. This album is more of a downtempo electronica album, it has 10 songs with additional help from John Tejada, Jenny Lewis, Geoff McFetridge, Morgan Nagler, Erlend Øye and Sonya Westcott.
2001 release from the Virginian multi-instrumentalist Mark Linkous (Sparklehorse). Also in this album Tom Waits, PJ Harvey, John Parish, Nina Perrson, Dave Fridmann and others. Mark Linkous usually records in a small room on his virginia farm but for this album he made an exeption and worked with other musicians, “I didn't want to play every instrument on every song,” “I didn't want to be behind the control console the whole time. I wanted to have other people's brains and input involved.” sayd Linkous, in an interview with Free Williamsburg Online Magazine. I've heard this a bunch of times, it never gets old.
