It's ok, the Silver City album, not the best maybe. It's an Argentinian guy I think. I had the Spirit Catcher remix of "Another Dimension" in that little mix I posted on our blog.

(I have that mix! Will listen again ;-))

the lp's really surprising. nice too, if more royksoppy than the last royksopp record. electrohouse guys going soft for the album: first joakim, now this (tho joakim's never played it quite straight i suppose).

jermaine (jnoble), Sunday, 4 September 2005 20:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, this album is growing on me. Upon first listen, I wanted to forget it, but it, like Superpitcher's HCL, is an album album, not a collection of potential singles for sure.

Does Eskimo have a website? Isn't that the label this will be released on?

Wow! It really can be that easy. I swear I searched for one yesterday and couldn't find one. Oops! Thanks much stirmonster.

matt2 (matt2), Thursday, 8 September 2005 17:12 (eighteen years ago) link

'i feel space' is probably my dance record of 2005. but, after playing it so often i decided i wanted a vocal version, so here's a gay space disco mashed up version. possible key clash alert.

q. "are you ready for space?"
a. yes.

tricky (disco stu), Thursday, 8 September 2005 17:42 (eighteen years ago) link

we all fell space since the loft era and the paradise garage. I fell
space and universe every time music gets kosmic and synthetic and
shouts body and soul. Then from New york to chicago, over Detroit with gary numan's cars, italian and electronic european cerrone and
moroder things ... All the sounds are compressing and invite us to
gather, wherever we come from; that is all about with scando-med music. Travel all over the Whord by the extremities. North and south,
black and white, find out what common is between krautrock and disco
or the possible alliance of rythm. That music is utopic like the hippies were at least.Dreamy and psychedelic, background the Sun of the baléares and the everlasting scandinavian summer !

Whord.

blunt (blunt), Friday, 16 September 2005 21:52 (eighteen years ago) link

the album does get better the more you listen to it.
1-3 times through = "yeah, it's quite nice"

3-6 times through = "damn, this is actually very good"

6+ = "FUCK! Must have everything! Fire up SLSK, call friends, FORCED EXPOSURE ain't got SHIT..AAGH!"

to download on city16 or not to download on city16, that is the..uh

biz, Friday, 16 September 2005 22:02 (eighteen years ago) link

I hate how it's impossible to find Eskimo releases at sane prices in the US- I nearly always end up downloading, but it's a shame since their packaging is so nice (and I am a shallow materialistic twit who must have a tangible object to relate to the material).

Any individual track recommendations? I was blown away by "I Feel Space," and anything even half as good would be fantastic...

Telephonething (Telephonething), Friday, 16 September 2005 23:16 (eighteen years ago) link

laurie oth OTFM.

check out feedelity.com and download the newest L&PT Shibuya FM mix, it's fucking WICKED and i need a tracklist post-haste. i know some of you folks can ID this stuff for me. one of their recent shows, i think the august one, was okay but not amazing. THIS is the one. check it.

oh also - Lindstrom's remix of "Tribulations" by LCD Soundsystem comes out on 12" this week. seek!!

heywood jablomi (heywood), Monday, 26 September 2005 01:43 (eighteen years ago) link

one more thing: if you want to hear the other side of Lindstrom's work and can handle something "jazzy", his recent single as Slowsupreme, "African Time" on the Jazid label is fucking smoking!

heywood jablomi (heywood), Monday, 26 September 2005 01:45 (eighteen years ago) link

Where on the Feedelity site can you download this mix? I can't find it...

telephone thing, Monday, 26 September 2005 01:54 (eighteen years ago) link

scroll past the blurb for 'i feel space' and you'll get the little 'shibuya fm' banner. below there's a link. but the link in my post above should work...

heywood jablomi (heywood), Monday, 26 September 2005 01:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Ah, okay. Thanks- somehow I missed the URL in your post.

telephone thing, Monday, 26 September 2005 02:05 (eighteen years ago) link

That Prima Norsk 3 comp Job linked to upthread looks awesome, I held it in my hands today and were I not in massive debt right now it would be mine, mine, mine!

Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 11:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Biz ... I recommend not to download from City16.
I downloaded 5 tracks for 5 pounds. The tracks where kind of protected wma or something. I could not burn them or upload them on my iPod. After lots of complaints I just got 2 of my 5 tracks.
I kept complaining but they just did not listen.
So guys, just do no buy from city16. They are crap.

nocure, Tuesday, 27 September 2005 14:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Beatservice has a CD compilation for sale on their website that includes a lot of the tracks mentioned in this thread. Details here

jeffery (jeffery), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 16:00 (eighteen years ago) link

yep, that's the famous prima norsk 3! it's really good.

tricky (disco stu), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 16:03 (eighteen years ago) link

Doh! Sorry for the repost.

clickgroove.com also has a chunk of the feedelity catalog (320K MP3).

jeffery (jeffery), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 16:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Thanks jeffery. Now someone tell me the three or four tracks I must have. I'm on a limited budget.

matt2 (matt2), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 16:11 (eighteen years ago) link

laure. yes. YES.

yknow, my experience of lindstrom & prins thomas has had pretty much the opposite trajectory to biz's. fell head over heels to "i feel space" on first listen, got their lp, dug out old radiophonic workshop comp, put on lava lamp and space goggles. came over all warm as the cosmic vibes reach my very core. before i know what's hit me, the warmth has DRAINED as i realise that OH SHIT IT'S NOT 1974, IT'S THE LATE NINETIES AND I'M BACK IN LOVE WITH BLUE STATES AND K&D AND FILA FUCKING BRAZILIA.

the album gets an occasional listen, and the juan atkins remix sure is pretty. the goggles are now buried in a landfill site somewhere in south manchester.

dan jonze, Tuesday, 27 September 2005 16:25 (eighteen years ago) link

atkins = maclean

dan jonze, Tuesday, 27 September 2005 16:26 (eighteen years ago) link

not as good as the reverso 68 one!

Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 20:38 (eighteen years ago) link

I discovered the other day that the Disco Lunar Module remix I'd been loving all year was by Lindstrom & Prins Thomas. Shoulda guessed it.

Mil (Mil), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 20:40 (eighteen years ago) link

"not as good as the reverso 68 one! "

My money on them being the next group to get the "oh my god it's the future" hype - although they need to do a few more tracks first.

Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 21:16 (eighteen years ago) link

i saw on annie's website that lindstrom's done a remix of her song wedding. has anyone heard this?

timgroom, Tuesday, 27 September 2005 21:29 (eighteen years ago) link

yes. it's a disco 'my sharona'. not their best.

stirmonster (stirmonster), Tuesday, 27 September 2005 21:34 (eighteen years ago) link

thanks.

that's funny i was totally going to post the same thing today - i had a similar epiphany yesterday while i was listening to an akwaaba album in my car. i think fila brazillia is a closer match than k&d or blue states. but there really wasn't anything wrong with fila brazillia for the first few albums, was there? it wasn't until they really started to stray into aimless jazz and folk-rock that it got tiring, right? as long as they stuck w/ the 4/4 i could (and still can) really get into FB ... so i'm hoping lindstrom reasserts the danciness, soon. maybe on an upcoming solo album?

or maybe i need to shell out for the major swellings album ...

vahid (vahid), Wednesday, 28 September 2005 13:56 (eighteen years ago) link

i bought it unheard about a month ago and it took a few listens to really click, but now i think it's really fantastic and solid. epic porno space disco. "assquake" is a parallel universe anthem made by daft punk if dp lost the conceptual and musical rigidity. i think it's an interesting foil to the direction techno/minimal house seems headed. (because i am a nerd who cares about such things, not that it has any bearing on the quality of the tunes)

tricky (disco stu), Wednesday, 28 September 2005 16:12 (eighteen years ago) link

thx for the tracklist, toby. which forum did you get that from?

After reading this thread I went straight to beats in space, Downloaded their mix, and WOW. I had not given these guys much thought until reading this. Are these the only guys currently doing Paradise Garage ( what I suppose is a paradise garage sound) like disco. Here's one the song I was surprised to here a remix of in their set

Jacobs (LolVStein), Thursday, 29 September 2005 08:24 (eighteen years ago) link

two weeks pass...
reviving this thread because i'm more interested in them now than i ever have been.

a nice torrent has popped up on oink that's a collection of their remixes (some lindstrom solo) and it's freaking fantastic, for the most part. it's got the forthcoming Tosca remix on it as well as a Lindstrom remix of Fuzz Against Junk's "Country Clonk", a record that came out on Bearfunk last year. the comp is worth downloading for this track alone. fucking sublime.

been corresponding with Mr Lindstrom lately and he says that Feedelity #0 and #1 are getting repressed in the near future, so watch for them. also the E2-E4 thing is on an italian label whose name escapes me and it due out in a couple months or so. I CAN'T WAIT THAT LONG.

strangely, the distributor which had originally solicited for the L&PT full-length called today to say that Eskimo had pulled out of the deal and they won't be carrying it now. anyone know what's up with that?

i just spend the last three days trawling online record shops for rarities and have pretty much come up empty. i need suggestions!

heywood jablomi (heywood), Monday, 17 October 2005 23:05 (eighteen years ago) link

woah, thanks for the tip about the comp, it sounds like a must-hear. the eskimo thing seems strange, but maybe they are on to better things...

tricky (disco stu), Monday, 17 October 2005 23:20 (eighteen years ago) link

have you heard the moxie releases? there are some nice edits on those, particularly the talking heads one which is now impossible to find.

tricky (disco stu), Monday, 17 October 2005 23:22 (eighteen years ago) link

xpost - sweet, i've got the talking heads one...

oh, another thing i forgot.
did some extensive google sleuthing and noticed there's a couple Japanese-only tings from our boys.
two of them are on Outergaze records, one of which - Lindstrom's "Violent Group" - just came out in the western world this week. He's also apparently got a full-length called "Another Side Of", which the single is taken from. plus there's a remix of Port of Notes on the Crue-L label which i think juno is carrying. but that's way too expensive for little stateside me.

caning the country clonk remix at the moment. how did i miss this?

heywood jablomi (heywood), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 04:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Which talking heads tune did he edit?

jeffery (jeffery), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:13 (eighteen years ago) link

'once in a lifetime', but it was carl craig...

heywood jablomi (heywood), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:14 (eighteen years ago) link

That sounds drool-worthy.

jeffery (jeffery), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Has anyone found a tracklisting for the August 27th Shibuya FM show? I'm particularly interested in identifying the track right around the 40 minute mark.

jeffery (jeffery), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:26 (eighteen years ago) link

can the person with the torrent YSI the compilation being shared? Major Swellings on YSI?
