Röyksopp ft. Robyn: The Girl and the Robot

Posted May 26, 2009

Just released - Swide takes a look at Röyksopp's new video for their new track The Girl and the Robot. Released on June 15th, the track is featured on the band's new album 'Junior' and is the first Röyksopp video in which both Torbjørn and Svein make an appearance.

The Michael Baldwin-directed video for "The Girl & The Robot" offers a very literal interpretation of the track.

The video follows the story of a home alone Robyn waiting for her robot husband who's working late at the office.

The third album for the Norwegian band features Robyn, Lykke Li (take a look at her forthcoming tour dates here www.swide.com/Lykke-Li--The-tour-dates, and The Knife's Karim Dreijer as guests.

Take a peek at the brand new video below.
