With Every Heartbeat (feat. Robyn) (Single) — Kleerup
EMI
2006
Rating:


Deep synthetic strings echo through a cave of loneliness. The high-hat and kick-pedal hit like a train. Keyboards offer major chords just as Robyn hopefully sings, "Maybe we can make it all right / Maybe we can make it better sometime / Maybe we can make it happen, baby." But Robyn knows it isn't true and Swedish electronica group Kleerup punctures her naοve hope with drilling percussion and even more melancholic strings. "It hurts with every heartbeat," Robyn sings, and yet it's impossible not to dance to her heartbroken misery.
