That long version of the L&PT track on the Eskimo myspace page is amaaazing..

will they ever perform live in the US together?

the interview at little white earbuds suggests they won't tour together

Scandinavian disco kings Hans-Peter Lindstrøm and Prins Thomas are set to release the follow up to their widely acclaimed eponymous debut this year.

The duo have had quite a journey since the release of their debut three years ago, with Thomas completing countless remixes and seeing his Full Pupp stable go from strength to strength, whilst Lindstrøm went on to release his solo cosmic disco opus, Where I Go You Go Too. Both of them have been busy in the studio together during their time back in Oslo, and the fruits of their labour are now finally ready for release.

Whilst Lindstrøm has always been one for using live instrumentation in the studio, Thomas' gradual shift into using more and more live elements in his solo work has meant that their second collaborative album, entitled II, has a much looser, organic feel than the first record. The original intent stands, however, as they merge their italo, Krautrock and disco influences into a lush singular whole, imbuing them with their characteristically warm production sheen. Released just in time for summer, it looks as if the Nordic duo are looking to compete for part of your personal sunshine soundtrack this year.

Tracklist
01. Cisco
02. Rothaus
03. For Ett Slikk Og Ingenting
04. Rett Paa
05. Skal Vi Proeve Naa?
06. Gudene Vet + Snutt
07. Note I Love You + 100
08. Flue Paa Veggen

Eskimo will release Lindstrøm and Prins Thomas' II on May 26, 2009.

Excited.

It's out there! I couldn't contain myself. On first listen: Kosmische muzik, breezily floating seventies synth, steady motorik, echoing guitar noodles spacing out, sunshine bliss. It's fucking great!

the promo divides the 8 cuts into 99 tracks on the cd. i'm really not sure what to do with this, vis a vis importing it into itunes.

lex pretend, Friday, 27 March 2009 10:24 (fifteen years ago) link

I think the idea is that you don't import it into iTunes.

Matt DC, Friday, 27 March 2009 10:27 (fifteen years ago) link

i actually have no other means of listening to it :(

lex pretend, Friday, 27 March 2009 10:28 (fifteen years ago) link

can itunes join the tracks together or something?

just sayin, Friday, 27 March 2009 10:32 (fifteen years ago) link

is this a ploy to get more last.fm scrobbles or what

tard and feathered (braveclub), Friday, 27 March 2009 11:35 (fifteen years ago) link

well, it would make up for lindstrøm's last album...

but last.fm won't scrobble the tracks >30 secs though.

lex pretend, Friday, 27 March 2009 11:37 (fifteen years ago) link

looks like the track streaming on eskimo's myspace isn't going to be on the album

and i wanted to say thanks to all you people for keeping my thread alive! so thanks!

mikebee (BATTAGS), Friday, 27 March 2009 19:35 (fifteen years ago) link

who cares if its 99 tracks?? just make sure you have "no gap between tracks" checked or whatever

s1ocki, Friday, 27 March 2009 19:39 (fifteen years ago) link

rip dom passantino 3/5/09 never forget (max), Friday, 27 March 2009 19:41 (fifteen years ago) link

this is on rapidshare already. googling will take you there.

brotherlovesdub, Friday, 27 March 2009 19:59 (fifteen years ago) link

and it's not 99 tracks

brotherlovesdub, Friday, 27 March 2009 20:01 (fifteen years ago) link

not ideal maybe but you can import cd's as a single track into iTunes (through the advanced menu after you've put the cd into your computer)

super loose, very organic, balearic kosmiche almost. enjoying this more than "where you go i go too". i know lots of people on here like that record but it never did stick for me, this otoh i like on first impression.

oscar, Friday, 27 March 2009 22:00 (fifteen years ago) link

"more organic" = could there be possibility of "organic" live shows? always dreamed of "boney m down" with full band.

winstonian (winston), Friday, 27 March 2009 23:43 (fifteen years ago) link

cutty beat me to the livetweeting bong joke.
