Lindstrom & Prins Thomas are the shit

wait, is this album out there already?!??! if so, give me it.

i am not sure about this album at all

it's way maximalist and there are a billion things happening but i'm not getting a sense of what's underneath it

i want it!

yeah lex--i keep listening to it and then not really remembering any of it. there are bits and pieces that grab me but...

maybe you haven't actually heard it yet

maybe it's one of these records you can never truly hear.

I...don't think i like this album

me neither. way too busy and "wacky."

wacky is the word

well I like it enough for both of you guys and probably everyone else in the world

I like it a lot. Definitely functionally different from his other stuff, and wild with the comb filtering on everything

I don't hate this but it does seem a bit of a mis-step, especially the end of Magik and the first two minutes of Call Me Anytime.

listened to this for the first time today while shoveling my driveway. good snow shoveling music.

(usual grumble)

Is this actually out yet? Available to listen or purchase anywhere (legally)?

Liked it well enough on first listen. (I think it's still promo at this point.)

"Dahle Disco" by 120 Days, co-produced by Lindstrøm. Free DL on SoundCloud

Wondered what happened to those dudes.

unfortunately that track is better than anything on the new Lindstrom album...

anyone loves this? this ranks up there with lindstrom's best stuff:

o_o

i like blondes a lottt but idk if i see the connection to lindstrom rly

busy + wacky = valid description tags.

result : not for me

as an aside : i really liked the 1st 120 days album (ltd edition with remixes by secret machines), so have high hopes for the new album ..

this album is super fun

otm. don't get why ppl h8 this album.

I'm not sure about it really, it's fine when it's on but there's not much that's very compelling about it. Like he was seriously blocked or something at the time and compensated for a lack of ideas with a lot of swirly tricks.

Best Coast remix is out. I kinda like it. He played it as the "finale" in his set at Santos last fall

upon reflection, i only really love "de javu" and "magic"

ok so Todd Rundgren has remixed a Lindstrom track.

Pretty woah but i think i'd prefer the other way around

It's cool, but essentially this :/

it does sound exactly how you would imagine it to. Maybe Rundgren will let him into some old multitracks in return.

is there another version of that anywhere? my soundcard doesnt like however they put that in to flash :(

Ok, I'll bite in that obscenely late-to-the-party kind of way. Who has a Spotify playlist of these guys?

Whatever, did one myself:

I agree Six Cups is fun (funny, even). But can see why a lot of folk who like the previous albums are gonna balk at this. It's like he thought "how can I combine Blast Of Loser and Little Drummer Boy and make them even more annoying?". The 'singing' on tracks 3 and 4 is going to get some getting used to as well. But I think he needed to do something a bit different at this point. And I love the arc of the record, the blurred edges between tracks (it feels a bit like a mix CD) and the way it comes full circle at the end. The whole is definitely > the sum of its parts.

tbh, I think losing the vocals on "Magik" and "Quiet Place to Liev" would have dramatically improved this for me

I'm an unrepentant Lindstrom stan and I'm having trouble with this. The vocals really are too much, they're just done in this kind of goofy camp tone (maybe even pitch shifted? I don't know, they just sound wrong) and it really rather spoils it for me.

The guy's body of work has been so consistently amazing I'll forgive him a misstep like this, but I really am feeling it's a bit of a misstep.

otm

if this whole project were a collab w/ mungolian jetset it would have the potential to be amazing, instead its just a goofy mess for most of it

anyone wanting newer 6 cups / mungolian jetset style wackiness that works should check out the todd terje mix of bjorn torske's "langt fra afrika".

Actually slightly disappointed by the new Lindstrøm album. Sounds a bit too "organic", almost as if Prins Thomas were involved actually...

both tracks are great!

is the other one listen-able anywhere?

if you buy it from the juno link then yes you can listen to it anywhere
