Geschmacksfragen: Roya

Aus Dänemark kommt das Elektro-Pop-Duo ROYA, die gerade die globale Musikszene erobert. Ich hatte euch in der Neue Musik Rubrik auch schon über ihre Songs berichtet. Mit ihrer Debüt-EP „Dear Space“ hatten sie 2023 großen Erfolg und auch eine erfolgreiche Tournee. Jetzt erscheint Neue Musik der beiden. Die letzte Single „Cruise“ ist Anfang Juli erschienen und da kommt hoffentlich bald mehr. Wir haben den beiden unsere Geschmacksfragen gestellt, um sie euch ein bisschen näher vorzustellen.

Your current favourite Song?

Our favourite song at the moment is ‘places to be’ with Fred Again and Anderson.Paak! It’s the vibe we all need this summer and the soundscape of the track, the flow in the vocals and the samples are simply incredible. If you haven’t seen the live session on youtube yet – do yourself that favour!

Your current favourite record?

Our favorite album is RAYE’s ‘My 21st century blues’ – an AMAZING MIC-DROPPING album. She is really smashing it and we love how she mixes genres and has the coolest presence in her vocals!

Your favourite place?

We really love THY – where Line is from. We’ve had so many amazing memories from the westcoast of Denmark, playing some of our greatest shows, having backstage on a boat, songwriting camps with sunsets and drinks, and being able to do morning swims in the ocean and late night talking with our best people!

Your favourite drink?

We love all the Danish micro beer breweries! It’s amazing that so many people are putting heart and soul into making delicious beer! And a nice amber beer in the sun on the square where our studio is located is a taste of heaven.

Your favourite food?

We love snacks! Both the healthy ones and the very unhealthy ones. It’s very important for the long days in the studio to have some refreshments. Our go to’s are fresh peas, chocolate, licorice and cake.
