Lindstrom & Prins Thomas are the shit

I've got more tolerance for PT's extremes. His long, winding remixes are sublime.

i'm coming down on the lindstrøm side for each of those

I don't want it to be opulent. I want it to be sweaty and dirty.

Stop biting my style, DC.

Anyway, who says sweat and dirt can't be opulent in their proper place?

has anyone else heard

His long, winding remixes are sublime.

Yeah, I'm hoping for an album full of White Diamond remixes.

that guincho thing is kinda shit fwiw

it's basically pretty hairy and rocky, not even krautrocky specifically

not seein where this is coming from. it is extremely krauty, i'm very much digging it, and generally i tend to be far less tolerant than most of krautless rock.

haven't heard the whole shebang yet but I'm really liking the "wendy not walter" track on here:

for those who have heard the album: is "wendy not walter" a track that it makes sense to gauge the rest of the album with? it doesn't really mesh with the "dirty, sweaty, hairy" comments on the thread imo.

this pic is def pretty sweaty, tho:

"Wendy Not Walter" <- didn't a prominent ILX0r get sued for this kind of thing? I call bullshit.

on what?

On that song title, duh.

(The song, however, is doing it to me in the eardrum.)

((Agree it is neither dirty nor sweaty nor hairy, though. It is a shiny and wonderful diskomiks as expected))

Song title not bullshit. Track unrepresentatively shiny.

cool. nice to know there will be some shiny to go along with all the hairy.

have no idea what the lawsuit stuff means

momus got sued for a song about wendy carlos

who was born walter carlos

ah, had never heard that

is that why the eyepatch

eye for an eye

eye for a penis morelike.

Prins Thomas (from the interview linked upthread): "I’m doing an album with The Mole" :DDD

that's really exciting, as i've been playing the new PT album and The Mole's For the Lost/There's Hope nonstop for the past few days (also Etienne Jaumet's Night Music, which is fucking awesome--produced by Carl Craig)

lol shirts v much in character

haha he was wearing that shirt when i saw him dj in LA

RA photoshopped that shirt to say "Adult Oriented Disco", which would be equally as good.

hahaha

would wear

should be the title for the new lp

"80s:70s, cocaine:weed, precise:loose, synthetic:organic" I think I like this assessment. I hear more new wave, even Jam & Lewis in Lindstrom than in Prins thomas.

we were just comparing the L&C album to the (Jam & Lewis-produced) SOS Band on the other thread!

re that new Prins Thomas 'Wendy Not Walter' track: I'm pretty sure Waves At Night are actually streaming Duff Disco's 'Red Hot' which samples the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and not a new Prins Thomas track

prins thomas fact mix

http://www.factmag.com/2010/03/08/fact-mix-130-prins-thomas/

wow, jean luc ponty & pat metheny

i wish fact mixes were longer...

that FACT mix blows my mind

the Prins Thomas remix of "Baby Can't Stop" is also blowin my mind

This is a lot better than L&PT II on first listen, much more direct and less noodly. Wendy Not Walter is immense.

oh man, I've gotta listen to this.

been jamming reinterpretations while cooking lately. it rules.

BiS w/ Prins

So the Prins Thomas album is out today - £5.49 on iTunes if that is how you get your music.

PT s/t is pretty good on first listen. I'll tread gingerly around the Krautrock comparisons as I'm no expert, but I do hear a lot of Neu! in a couple of tracks. Closer to L&PT II than Major Swellings sound-wise (well, duh) but I can see myself coming back to this more often than I will to II. "Wendy Not Walter" is lovely.

"Nattønsket" is my jam. Great album. I've totally come around to II in the last couple of months. In the wrong mood it's oodledoodle but when I'm a bit strung out it's a soothing listen.

So how come iTunes is telling me I can't have it until 5th April?

lent

Oh, you.

Does iTunes do presale? Because it looks like it's going to let me buy it buy I don't want to click confirm and pay my money until I know I'll have it.

However, the Time & Space Machine album, which I know *is* out this week, is nowhere to be seen. CONFUSEMENT.

Oh. It is actually downloading now. I kept thinking they were gonna yank the MP3s away from me at the last minute.

EXCITERATION.

I have to go to Rough Trade to get the TASM album, though, as I want that bonus disc coz Richard Norris's mixes are always so amazing.
