Lindstrom & Prins Thomas are the shit

Damn, tickets not on sale yet.

What do you reckon that the Spectrum advertised at another Corsica Studios night is the one I like and not that Lairstep nonsense with the same name?

You can get the £10 earlybird tickets via Resident Advisor

Dammit, why am I on every mailing list for every RUBBITCH venue in London (and some in NYC) but not for one that has stuff I'd actually WANT to go to (like this):

(which I have now missed due to not finding out about it until today.)

x-post AWWW YEAH!!

I was complaining the other week when I had to sign up for RA to get mine Disco3000 podcast but now I am HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY as I get to go to the Scando-Balaeric Spacerock Ball!!!

you can get the RA podcasts from their RSS feed without being signed up

sshhh

I'm not complaining. The podcast was great, and getting early bird tickets is a happy bonus.

exciting stuff..

weird they felt the need to include a single from 6 years ago, especially since it's already on the lindstrom comp.

really digging this album!!!

pretty difft vibe from any of his last 3-4 releases but still hits that sweet spot

max's sweet spot

been listening to II a lot lately - one of my favourites of the year no question. love all the sparkly tinkly sounds on flue paa veggen and when the aaaahh vocals sort of unexpectedly turn up towards the end <3 <3

I'm not really getting II that much, more looking forward to the Christabelle album, but then again it took me a while for 'Where you go...'

i'm looking forward to the Christabelle album too especially going on "Lovesick" and max's enthusiastic description of it on the other thread. also 40 minute jam of "Little Drummer Boy" wtf.

but right now, quiet night at home, II's noodliness = yes.

I can't understand how anyone could not dig this album. It's like prog heaven.

II probably would get my album of the year simply because it sounds good no matter what mood I'm in.

The banjo always surprises me, no matter how many times I hear this album.

really like what someone posted upthread (was it you Ned?) about the programmed bits and the live bits, just how seamless it all sounds.

Probably not me but I'll take the compliment!

They were, separately, absolutely amazing last night. Prins Thomas DJed for the first couple of hours and then teed Lindstrom up for his live set with - get this - a cosmic beatless synth version of Debussy's Clair de Lune. Which was actually sort of gorgeous but the single soppiest thing I have ever seen on a dancefloor.

Then Lindstrom came on and played Where You Go I Go Too as his first track and people went mental. He also did The Contemporary Fix, Grand Ideas, I Feel Space (omg so awesome) and a few other things. Also Baby Can't Stop was played as the penultimate track, the first half, with a moodier and more minimal baseline with Christabelle's vocals chopped up over the top, and then in the second half exploded into the full version with the proper bassline, vocals, brass and everything. Then Prins came back and absolutely killed it for another three hours or so, including a disco dub edit of Layla by Derek and the Dominos. I have now seen the Lex dancing to Eric Clapton.

The other highlight was Horse Meat Disco dropping Timecode by Justus Kohnke which reminded me quite how much I love that record.

a cosmic beatless synth version of Debussy's Clair de Lune

presumably Isao Tomita's version - would love to hear this on a big system

Yeah that's the version - it sounded pretty amazing on the Corsica soundsystem, which is one of the best in London.

gutted, missed it on saturday, went to Benetti in Brixton instead (due to financial constraints). Was is superb?

been listening to II a whole lot for a week or so. wonderful, obviously.

but has anyone else noticed the odd clipping on "For Ett Slikk Og Ingenting" (one of my faves) that sounds a bit like somebody tapping a mic? they appear in arrhythmic pops throughout a long stretch of the track and just seem to clash so strongly with smooth, seamless sound of the record.

strikes me as odd that it they weren't edited out and that leads me to believe that they were intentionally left in. weird choice if so, imo.

and for the record, I've been listening to the released cd and a flac rip I did of it, so it's not just some audio error on the leaked mp3s. also, I did a quick comparison, and wow, do the leaked mp3s that I had been listening to prior sound crappy compared to the real deal. a gorgeous record like this one really loses something if it's too heavily compressed.

been rediscovering the s/t lately... SO GOOD

OK the clipping on "For Ett Slikk Og Ingenting" is basically ruining the song for me now. I can't listen to anything else on the track! am I crazy?

also, the clean guitar strumming on the last track always makes me think of faust iv.

The thing that sounds like someone's miked the plectrum instead of the instrument on a guitar track intended to be extremely low in the mix? Must definitely be intended, I'm thinking, but don't see why.

(xpost!)

you're right, that's exactly what it sounds like.

so weird!

^this has always bothered me, but i never knew if it was supposed to be there or what it was or what
