And not just the Disco Inferno of the EPs but also those early percussive efforts on In Debt. "No Comply" though is all weird overlapping keyboard and piano melodies, kinda Reichian sample-pop.

Slowly slowly starting to see more talk about this. Still perhaps my favourite album of the year, interchanging with Panda Bear. Not surprisingly, the remixes floating around are great - I love how Todd Terje's remix of "Life's a Beach" starts out funky and very very slowly gets all moody like the original, and it's got such a wet aqueous groove too. And the Brennan Green remix of "West Side" is like a really sensitive dub version, moving around some parts, cutting out the vocals and adding some morose bleepy keyboards but otherwise preserving everything loveable about the original.
Also really really liking Studio's remix/remake of The Shout Out Loud's "Impossible", which is bright shiny pop by their standards - The Cure's "In Between Days" meets Disco Inferno's "The Athiest's Burden" meets... I'm not sure.

i've fallen in love with this band, but have only heard 2 songs (Origin & Life's a Beach). would love to hear a full length. i bought the remix 12" of Life's a Beach and was terribly dissapointed. i didn't realize it was only remixes and not the original version. and the remixes just sounded like mellow house tracks to me. lost most of the live instruments that i liked about it to begin with and returned it the next day.
― jaxon, Monday, 9 July 2007 18:00 (sixteen years ago) link
also, how come the mp3s i've gotten are listed as "A Studio"? not The Studio or just Studio?

i can't believe you returned that 12"

the vocals on the strategy album are a total bummer. whats going on here?

I'm waiting for my yearbook CD after really enjoying the remixes 12", the Todd Terje is fantastic, pitched on the edge of being, like the record shop label said, 'chilled out bar groove', I'm amazed they get something so great out of these rainforest and hippy signifiers. Certain points in that track, a bit more colour is gradually added and it feels like a huge psychedelic build, but still fairly restrained and smooth overall.

i think the terje remix is anything but chilled out, but that's a minor quibble as it's one of my favorite remixes in a year that has been jammed with them. i haven't heard the album yet. can't believe i missed this thread the first time around.
― tricky, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 02:43 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah, it's a great disc. Those upthread who drew comparisons between this and The Cure are OTM.
― Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 10 July 2007 03:07 (sixteen years ago) link
maybe i should try to download the 2 Life's a Beach remixes and actually, you know, like listen to them. i just figured it wasn't something i'd ever play out (like that happens so often), so i didn't need to own the vinyl
― jaxon, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 03:11 (sixteen years ago) link
i was really surprised to read your comment upthread! the bassline in the terje is just too boogie to be house. it reminds me of the mary jane girls. so there's the rick james thing and on top of it there is cure (meets basic channel) san francisco summer beach atmospherics. and then fat techno claps and cowbells and a sense of humor. i am so smitten by this song.

jaxon - for some reason when i ripped the promo CD i got, iTunes listed the artist as "A Studio" so I would guess your rip came from that as well...
― BATTAGS, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 07:00 (sixteen years ago) link
you know, you fellas are right! this is great! agree w/ all the aforementioned reference points, but would add in the mood of all those great Associates 12"s w/ the cool b-sides. and special commendation for the exquisite guitar. thank you ilx!
― nerve_pylon, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 03:33 (sixteen years ago) link
Ned I sincerely believe you will love them.
It's kinda of odd how similar the Prins Thomas and Todd Terje remixes of "Life's a Beach" are - both have the funky bassline, the endless layering of effects, the faithful redeployment of the guitar. The Terje remix is slightly more brisk and uptempo, and I slightly prefer it, but they're both great.
― Tim F, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 12:10 (sixteen years ago) link
Cutty those Strategy samples are excellent. Will have to track that album down.

Cutty! That Strategy album is like... Luomo making a post-rock record? Or a post-rock group making a Luomo record? Whatever, if I had a Microsoft Wizard program that made albums for me at least one of them would probably turn out like this. Not sure if I love love love it yet but will def. keep listening.
2007 is so the year I became a corny balearic fuxx.
― Tim F, Thursday, 12 July 2007 22:34 (sixteen years ago) link
i think balearic is one of those words like minimal. it has meaning that is more like residue. i like a lot of recent music like this because it is musical as opposed to most of the contemporary dance music i immerse myself in which is music that for most of the 00s has been design-obsessed (similar to a lot of contemporary pop and hip hop and even alterna-rock). it's just tiring after awhile.

I didn't check the tracklist carefully, but that's an odd omission. I'm curious if he plans on a stand-alone 12" for that. If you don't have The Crepes LP yet, pick that up. It's relatively inexpensive considering how good it is. I freaking love that album. Short and perfect.

can we get a west coast repress or what
― the late great, Monday, 10 October 2022 18:58 (one year ago) link
Yes, this album was released last year. It's great but too short. I think the Crepes album is one of the best things Lissvik has done outside Studio but unfortunately, that has been removed from streaming platforms. Kind of weird that they'd take their stuff off streaming when it is impossible to find in shops or online (unless you buy second hand). It's not like spotify is costing them sales when their shit isn't for sale. Anyway, Dan Lissvik is my favorite musician/producer of the last 15-20 years. Would like to have the money to buy one of his big artworks but unfortunately, i'm just a worker bee, not a CEO.
― brotherlovesdub, Monday, 10 October 2022 19:30 (one year ago) link
Same! Though I've purchased prints of his years ago. Those are very nice. However he puts stuff up for sale very rarely these days I think.
― Evan, Monday, 10 October 2022 21:13 (one year ago) link
have the prices gone up? he had some handmade clothes up on his site awhile back, think a hand dip-dyed sweatshirt might have been $150? not cheap but not that expensive, like hip cool guy brand prices but not like fashion world commes des garcons or prada prices. i remember some ceramics that weren’t too bad either. but this was around early 2016 (i remember because i was considering throwing in a tshirt and vase w my preorder of 50/50 EP and meditation repress)
but shipping a big painting, yeah the cost of dhl would probably kill you. plus maybe now that he has a fancy gallery it’s more expensive. i agree though, i love his paintings, particularly the plant ones, and i love his airbrushed / spray painted (?) weird foamy / melted looking sculptures
