AuralAssault: Anniemal

I am crazy about this right now. Listen to Annie's "Anniemal." It is a good slice of Scandinavian (specifically Norwegian) electronic pop music. On "No Easy Love," fellow countrymen of Royksopp lends a helping hand, creating a track that could have been one on Melody A.M. On "Greatest Hit" which was first released in 1999, Annie and her late producer-boyfriend sampled Madonna's seminal disco track "Everybody" to great aplomb. It was reportedly said that Annie's album was much delayed 'cos of her late boyfriend's early departure at the age of 23 shortly after "Greatest Hit" was recorded. Nuff said, savour the greatness!
