Royksopp是來自挪威的雙人組合，是目前炙手可熱且深獲好評的電音團體之一。雖然來自冰冷的北國，但royksop p玩出的音樂，卻是溫暖舒服的，毫無刺骨的感覺，卻讓人體會到睡在絲綢棉被之中的松軟、光滑和懶洋洋。 royksopp由挪威tromso地方的torbjorn brundtland和svein berge組成,他們早在上個世紀90年代就開始活動，其間間斷過一些時候，1998年再度組合，此后他們簽約big beat品牌wall of sounds，在發表了單曲“eple”后于2001年底出版了這張他們的第一張專輯。 從音樂上看，royksopp的音樂，融合了ambient、breakbeat和trip-hop，但他們的音樂并沒有單純三 者結合，所以你感受不到傳統ambient的冗長、breakbeat的碎雜和trip-hop的詭異，卻聽到了一首首標準歌曲 長度、聽覺上十分愜意具催眠效果的音樂。 

Senior is a forthcoming album from Norwegian duo R?yksopp, set for release on 13 September 2010. The album has been described as an introspective, withdrawn, atmospheric counterpart to energetic Junior. R?yksopp described the album as having an "autumn mood" to it, while Junior had a "spring feel". In an interview with KCRW, Svein Berge likened Senior to "the senile sibling of Junior who lives in the attic." The Alcoholic has been described by the band as a "nostalgic idea based on this hobo who hitchhikes on trains and travels from place to place."

The Drug has been released as a 1-track promotional single from the album on 9 August 2010 via Dog Triumph label.
