Kings of Convenience - I Don't Know What I Can Save You From

I've always loved a good 6 degrees of separation story, especially in music, as with the Fiona Apple - Aimee Mann - Michael Penn - Jon Brion connection or The Death Cab For Cutie - The Postal Service - Rilo Kiley - The Elected relationship. I caught on to a new one this week while listening to the King's of Convenience remix album Versus. I learned about Erlend Øye, half of this Norwegian duo, when Brandon posted a track from his solo album earlier this year. That's also the first time I had heard of Röyksopp, who remixed this particular track from their sophmore disc Quiet is the New Loud. I have also heard Mark spin stuff by Four Tet. And so the circle is complete. The KoC also have a new album out called Riot on an Empty Street, check out the first single in the Bonus Tracks.
