I do wish Lindstrom would learn a new bass riff (dum - d-dum).

quite a lot of it is live as opposed to samples. for the less electronic space disco tracks i know they have a really basic drum kit they play and then sample.

like ronan, i sometimes think prins thomas is the good one as he doesn't noodle quite as much, but then i'll listen to something like 'arp she said' and change my mind again.

you've spent time with them, haven't you jd? i would suspect you'd know better than any of us.

it seems they're in japan doing live sets this weekend, let's hope some audio makes its way onto the intarwebb for our listening pleasure. and because i'm spending way too much money for my first ipod tomorrow. :)

oh btw, been listening to 'another side of lindstrom' again last night and it's really growing on me. sometimes it sounds dodgy and way too noodly and at others it sounds brilliant. last night's listen veered toward brilliant immediately and stayed there. must have been the weed. it's definitely a melding of the lindstrom's slowsupreme side and his i feel space side, and it does clash a bit. has anyone else heard the 'violent group' 10" that has preceded this? apparently the label outergaze is pressing in the US so if you're in the states you'll be able to get the doublepack at a domestic price.

i like him most when he noodles.

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 12 January 2006 12:12 (twenty years ago)

I know I've heard the violent group single, but can't remember a thing about it. Lindstrom & co. are in dire need of a compilation.

― Dominique (dleone), Thursday, 12 January 2006 13:09 (twenty years ago)

there's live audio on www.ourdisco.com

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 12 January 2006 14:00 (twenty years ago)

We're heading out to this tonight. Is it going to be any good? Anyone seen 'em?

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Friday, 13 January 2006 04:46 (twenty years ago)

did you go, how was it?

also, just got word from my distributor that the lindstrom "another station" 12" is out next week, white labels only with no artist credited (just like arp she said). fingers crossed, we'll be getting some here in SF...

and...?

― Susan Douglas (Susan Douglas), Saturday, 14 January 2006 23:35 (twenty years ago)

i'll know by wednesday...(if your xpost was for me)

― something less threatening (heywood), Sunday, 15 January 2006 07:59 (twenty years ago)

i should have xposted, but yeah let us know about that too.

― Susan Douglas (Susan Douglas), Sunday, 15 January 2006 08:03 (twenty years ago)

one side of the violent group 12" is a pretty decent instrumental disco track. could use some vocals to anchor it though. the other side is a bit fusion-jazzy in a pretty good/interestigng way and sounds great slowed to 33 rpm. also, possibly the most rock thing they've done and one of my favorites is their remix of call me mr. telephone that just came out. they basically rewrote and played the music. it's 11 mins long and the vocals don't come in until 5 mins in.

― Graham Gouldman (Graham Gouldman), Monday, 16 January 2006 02:02 (twenty years ago)

i love the track but the vocals grate for me. their inclusion in that recent 'our disco' live set had me kind of cringing, especially when i played it for other people...

― something less threatening (heywood), Monday, 16 January 2006 04:45 (twenty years ago)

So does anyone else feel like the M.A.N.D.Y. remix of "I Feel Space" sound like a 4:45 intro/M.A.N.D.Y. throw-away followed by 2:45 of a pretty solid remix?

― matt2 (matt2), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 16:33 (twenty years ago)

new lindstrom/riton "monsteer"/"young girl" split isn't bad. the lindstrom track is a good, mid-tempo disco-funk thing (which isn't really saying much, I know, but I've only heard it a couple of times!)

― Dominique (dleone), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 16:50 (twenty years ago)

is that a philip glass sample on Monsteer? The female vocal bit...

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 17:02 (twenty years ago)

I'm loving Monsteer.

― matt2 (matt2), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 17:05 (twenty years ago)

matt2: i'm inclined to agree with you, it doesn't blow me away.

btw SF folks: "Another Station" is in stock NOW. come'n'git it.

― something less threatening (heywood), Thursday, 19 January 2006 22:25 (twenty years ago)

I can't get a hold of I Feel Space anywhere. It's annoying.

― Gukbe (lokar), Thursday, 19 January 2006 22:27 (twenty years ago)

ooh also, hanspeter tells me that this 'mighty girl' 12" is the next single off the album (strangely enough) and is a cover of an obscure Can tune off a 1973 Peel Session. i'm drooling...

and gukbe, if you live anywhere near san francisco, i've got one copy left here at the shop...

― something less threatening (heywood), Thursday, 19 January 2006 22:29 (twenty years ago)

cheers SLE, but i live in glasgow. i also don't have a record player...

― Gukbe (lokar), Thursday, 19 January 2006 22:37 (twenty years ago)

can't you get it in RubADub?

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 19 January 2006 22:40 (twenty years ago)

hmm...i've never been there, actually. i'll give it a go this weekend.

― Gukbe (lokar), Thursday, 19 January 2006 22:42 (twenty years ago)

they may well have it. the guys in the shop are mostly nice and friendly too (although u may expect otherwise).

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 19 January 2006 22:44 (twenty years ago)

was it released on cd?
i know that feedelity will be selling through itunes soon...

― something less threatening (heywood), Friday, 20 January 2006 00:10 (twenty years ago)

no. fuckin. way.

hobbitt's a connoisseur

― manuel (manuel), Friday, 27 January 2006 05:40 (twenty years ago)

I need to raid jeff goldblums' collection for the original (even tho I stand to be disappointed if his claim is true). damn you hobbit, it would have been easy to name the record

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 27 January 2006 13:25 (twenty years ago)

the end of 'hergest ridge' has a similar arpeggio but it certainly doesn't sound like they have ripped it off.

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Friday, 27 January 2006 14:49 (twenty years ago)

oh you guys

"Nick Cannon came in while scratching his nuts and said, 'What the fuck is this -- crazy cracker computer shit?' Then he ran out." Amazing.

― C.D., Friday, 27 January 2006 16:08 (twenty years ago)

The s/t album has been pleasant listening so far but not much more. I think I like their DJ mixes much more.

― Jay Vee (Manon_70), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 18:31 (twenty years ago)

I'm liking the new single "Mighty Girl"

― van igloo (van smack), Sunday, 5 February 2006 03:53 (twenty years ago)

i just got it off oink. can't wait to check it...

― something less threatening (heywood), Sunday, 5 February 2006 09:49 (twenty years ago)

Yellow Pt 2
Yellow Pt 3
Yellow Pt 4
Yellow Pt 5

part 1 & 6 "coming soon" along with 2 more whole sets...

― something less threatening (heywood), Monday, 6 February 2006 04:09 (twenty years ago)

hmm, I wonder if that site is where I got the mysterious mp3 which was only tagged as "LINDSTROM_AND_PRINCE_THOMAS_MIX". it's pretty good, even has the wig-out half of "can't you hear me knocking" by the stones!

― weekly handle change (haitch), Monday, 6 February 2006 05:06 (twenty years ago)

ysi?

― something less threatening (heywood), Monday, 6 February 2006 09:03 (twenty years ago)

hm, I'm on dialup at home. I'll see what I can do.

― weekly handle change (haitch), Monday, 6 February 2006 10:58 (twenty years ago)

i'll be able to upload it when i get home (say, 7 hours from now) so you'll be able to immerse yourself in this lucious Can cover :)

― willem -- (willem), Monday, 6 February 2006 11:01 (twenty years ago)

here you are heywood. tis a nice cover, what with those handclaps and nice drumming and stuff, but my favorite by far is "Vran Gog" -> swooosh...

― willem -- (willem), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:00 (twenty years ago)

the Lindstrom mixes of Magnet's "Hold On" are out in the UK at the moment on 12". my UK distributors (who mainly deal in rock) don't know what the hell i'm talking about - they think it's the 7" i'm after. uhhhh no. anyone know if this is going to make it over the atlantic?

― something less threatening (heywood), Friday, 10 February 2006 23:31 (twenty years ago)

"Feeling PM" - the obvious influence is Roxy? I am loving this. so beautiful. makes me think of living in a hospital and being sexy and never being allowed to go outside!
