Pray The Molecule is the project of the singer, composer, producer and DJ Norway Nora Schjelderoup. ‘The Human Fear’, his first album, published in 2021, toured influences from Cocteau Twins, Fleetwood Mac and Kraftwerk -sus three main referents- and contained the mini success ‘Helicopter’. The second album of Ora The Molecule takes a different path, as you will know those who have participated in UMusic Song Contest.
‘Dance Therapy’ – as its title suggests – is an album focused on danceable and electronic rhythms. Its sound arises not only from Nora’s sessions such as DJ, but also from its experiences as Röyksopp telonera and as a musician of Todd Terje and Lindstrøm. Topics such as ‘Intergalactic Dance’ denote an obvious influence of the Nudisco and Italo Disco rhythms. ‘Dance Therapy’ can be heard since Friday.
Ora Molecule’s music can also be the closest thing to Annie that has emerged from Annie. The comparison is easy since both are Norwegian women who make electronic pop music. However, songs such as ‘Løveskatt’ lend themselves to the comparison thanks to the type of vocal melody of the Molecule and production style.
‘Løveskatt’ is a chute of electropop and fine and elegant nudisco that is titled with an invented word composed of two individual words, ‘Løve »and” Skatt “, which together mean something like the” Tax of the Lion “or the” Treasure of the Lion. ” In the song of the day for Tuesday, the Molecule Aúlla Pray as Shakira.
Pray The Molecule has created a new word to describe a specific feeling, such as Fka Twigs and ‘Euseuxa’. In the case of Nora, ‘Løveskatt’ raises a “celebration to create a nest and a safe space with the loved person” because that is a “basic human need and sometimes the most important.” Same important is to dance: that is also therapy.
