Having dropped their album "Senior" this past September, Norwegian electronic duo Royksopp is readying itself for its North American March tour.  While their music is absolutely mesmerizing, riveting and complex, I find their videos equally as challenging in their experimentation and tantalizing balance of the ideal and the horrific.  Additionally, the videos boast such a breadth of media, always surprising and challenging the viewer.  Lose yourself in Royskopp's dream-world fantasies and nightmares; it makes that separation of mind and body float hover above my skin as I subconsciously sway to the beat in an almost meditative state.

As an FYI regarding the "Adventures in Barbieland" videos, here's the artist's statement:

"We had a vision, and in this vision we saw ourselves as a sleeping hobo and an old man respectively. The following is a vivid depiction of some of the events that occurred during an intended stay in Barbieland. And remember, It's a true story...."
