Mute US is excited to announce the release of
Dance Therapy, the sophomore album from
worldwide signing Nora Schjelderup, aka Ora the
Molecule. The album will be available on black vinyl
and digital formats on March 21st.
Dance Therapy follows a transformative period
for Schjelderup, whose DJ career took off post-
pandemic. She has shared the stage with fellow
Norwegian legends like Todd Terje and Lindstrøm,
and opened for Røyksopp, earning her the title of
Norway’s queen of disco. Inspired by her DJ sets,
‘70s sci-fi sounds and Italo-disco, Dance Therapy
is a retro-futuristic fever dream which Schjelderup
crafted in a remote cabin in the woods while
navigating a series of severe losses. “I had a lot of
pain,” she reflects. “This was my own way of dealing
with it. A way to get energy back in the body.”
Much of Dance Therapy’s first half features
ebullient, infectious dance anthems including the
singles “Intergalactic Dance” and “Løveskatt’ while
the second half grapples with grief, mortality and
heartbreak with reflective tracks like “Cyber Fever,”
Evig Ung,” and “New Years.”
The album announcement comes alongside the
airing of Schjelderup’s debut performance on NRK,
Norways largest media broadcasting company.
