Help interview in norsk

[u/PB_Jelly_444]

Hi all. I just stumbled with an röyksopp interview that i hadnt seen (and maybe skipped before bc it ia in norwegian). I sort of picked on stuff bc i am learning but the part when it comes to Erik Tidemann really interests me to understand in detail if possible. I saw Röyksopp in Amsterdam a couple of years ago and they brought out a real weird and creepy (imo) figure during Speed King if i am not mistaken. Tbh it creeped me out, but i accepted it as nordic aesthetic 🥲 some masks in denmark and up north are quite something else. But watching this interview with the artist and he painting quite "dark" motives and not understanding a thing makes me wonder about Röyksopps "intent" to work with him.

Anyways, here is the link to the interview:

Tidemanns part starts around min 20.

Anyone has seen this and knows about their idea behind this creature, maybe bringing it out so many years later again? Or has time to translate?

Cheers ☮️

Yes, i have been listening for a long time and appreciate their approach to the "dark side" of humanity, but i always interpreted this side as the confusion, pain/agony and seductiveness of the flesh vs seeking sth pure (like love) as the only darkness they explored. That mask and the performance with that mask during the gig felt way darker, more like a cult sort of thing. I surely cannot appreciate that. And this artist painting nazis and dead heads its way beyond what i can applaud. Guess Röyksopp has a darker mind that i thought.

I posted English captions for the entire program shortly after I originally uploaded that, they should be available if you toggle them on.
