    Completely missed this until now and heard it completely by accident - a clip of The Knife doing their thing at Pukkelpop last year with a segment supporting Pussy Riot via the use of bouncing.......to a Goldfrapp soundtrack.

    Yeah. Exactly.

    Did a search on here and couldn't see it mentioned so, bookmarked to the part of the clip:

    That was interesting in a good way, I liked the call to protest sadly lacking in current music

    Liked the length of the thread title Carpy. A bit of dedication there.

    I tried to sum up the rather bizarre combination in a few less words but it really didn't do it justice! ;)

    I went to see The Knife at the last Electric Picnic in Ireland and the opening 'Aerobics' part of the show Goldfrapp's Train was the song they used! Which baffles me as Shaking the Habitual has such a dry musical sound unlike Goldfrapp, didn't think it suited at all unfortunately :(

    I was at Electric Picnic as well and The Knife's show was simply jaw dropping. Totally unexpected, given the nature of Shaking the Habitual, but I found that the whole thing was so warm, energising and disarming, it'll remain long in the memory.
