APOTHEK
Apothek is a child of its time. Their self-titled debut LP – ‘Apothek’ – embodies a sound that could arguably only exist today (2016). But beyond the cropped rhythms and synthetic symphonies, there’s a sense of classic melody that feels strangely inherent.
Perhaps it stems from Apothek’s somewhat unlikely pairing; combining the freewheeling spontaneity of singer/songwriter Morten Myklebust with the more premeditative musings of producer Nils Martin Larsen. It’s a union of celebrated synthesis and one that straddles the divide between electronic and organic.
