After a record breaking hiatus of 25 years, THE NORTHERN
TERRITORIES are back for good. The Swedish melancholic synth duo has
used the time well to hone their musical prowess and to think hard about
how they wanted their unique sound to come across in the present. As a
result of this intense thought process, the stunning album "A Star in
Orbit Still" combines everything that made the band great and generated a
dedicated and loyal following that eagerly awaited their return during
all those years with a contemporary sound design. Channeling their
trademark melancholy and Nordic knack for captivating melodies, THE
NORTHERN TERRITORIES did not even shy away from covering LANA DEL REY's
iconic track 'Say Yes to Heaven' and to make it theirs. When the Swedish
duo disbanded after the release of their third full-length "Satellite
People" in 1999, they left behind many a broken heart in the electronic
music scene that was mourning the loss of a one of a kind band with a
unique sonic appearance. THE NORTHERN TERRITORIES' combination of
outstanding songwriting with a strong melancholic Nordic tint as well as
semi-acoustic, semi-electronic instrumentation created their very own
version of a dreampop soundscape. With “A Star in Orbit Still', THE
NORTHERN TERRITORIES are not just back on track as if nothing happened
in the years of their absence, but the Swedes return on top of their
game and fully ready to climb new peaks!
