SEE & HEAR: Casiokids - "Finn bikkjen!"

MP3: Casiokids - "Finn bikkjen!"

What are you trying to tell me? I have no idea what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah I understand your tone of voice, but I don't know. You know, I think I'm actually starting to get an idea. Yeah! I'm starting to understand it. I don't know how I'm supposed to explain this because I still have no idea what you're saying, but this synthesizer riff is so thumping; throbbing, pulsing with such intensity. You sound so honest and I can't turn down your pop charms. Oh hell, I get it. I'm going to say I get it because this synth riff is burrowing into my ears and it feels so good.

The video for this song kind of says it all.

Ketil Kinden Endresen's voice reminds me a bit of Mew's Jonas Bjerre Terkelsbøl. This song is pure electro pop. And because music is such a universal language, you can still get something out of this song even if you have no idea what Endresen is singing in Norwegian. The music is just as articulate as any words could possibly be.

You can also check out the diskJokke remix of Casiokid's "En Vill Hest, (A Wild Horse)" below. It's a musical journey of clicks and clanks, airy synth, and oscillating rhythms all carried by Endresen's smooth voice that, on occassion, hits Bee Gees highs. Get yer dance on.
