Hi,

i would love to broaden my musical horizon.

Do you know any acts comparable to Royksopp/Leftfield aka "melancholic techno"?

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards, Chris

Maybe a bit too different, but you might like: Lamb, Portishead, and the XX.

Carbon Based Lifeforms
Not that much vocals though

Boards of Canada. Very different sound to Royksopp, but if you're after melancholic electronica BOC definitely qualify.

I'll chime in with Goldfrapp, Ulrich Schnauss, and early stuff of Moby.

Try Bonobo, Kruder & Dorfmeister and Zero7

Acts similar to Royksopp/Leftfield
