Bergen is the breeding ground for much of the great music that has come out of Norway in recent times. So much so that Royksopp, Kings of Convenience, Magnet, Sondre Lerche et al have become collectively known as the Bergen Wave. Anne Lilia Berge Strand is another to make the breakthrough and her debut ‘Anniemal’ is rightly hailed as one of 2005’s best. ‘Heartbeat’ is one of the highlights and here it is as envisioned by French electronic artist Alan Braxe. There is more than a hint of the Kylie’s and you can only imagine how huge it could have been if her PR machine had been behind it. The grooves are big and raw and you’d certainly need to be at the top of your game to pull off a successful friday night down the disco interpretation. KD
