Yeah love this new one. Back to the Cerrone magic.

Oh thank god!

Signs are good. Can't wait til I have left 1996 and am back on a computer with Flash again so I can listen to it.

yeah the new single is fucking fantastic
― heiswagger (rennavate), Friday, 10 August 2012 15:46 (eleven years ago) link
OK 30 seconds in, and Lindstrom has already got his thing back.
This is an immense, immense relief to me.
― Chewton Mendip (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 10 August 2012 17:35 (eleven years ago) link
This single is awwwwesome.
I felt like I was the only one who liked "6 Cups"-- though I heard it did well in Italy

Part of me suspected that the enormous amount of comb-filtering put people off, made the whole thing sound like Youtube audio when played through laptop speakers
― Ówen P., Friday, 10 August 2012 17:53 (eleven years ago) link
The fact that he forgot to write any tunes, and filled up the record with sub-Mungolian Jetset jokiness was more what killed it for me.
But this is a return to form, and Mr Hans-Peter is cordially welcomed back to my vagina post haste.
― Chewton Mendip (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 10 August 2012 17:55 (eleven years ago) link
That's a relief!
― Ówen P., Friday, 10 August 2012 17:57 (eleven years ago) link
i liked it too. i don't think it was jokey at all. maybe a bit "difficult sophomore album" i guess. xp
― turtwig greenturty (Matt P), Friday, 10 August 2012 17:58 (eleven years ago) link
To both of us, I'm sure ;-) x-post to Owen
I just have terrible memories of that "All I want is a quiet place to live" song that went on FOREVER with the vocals growing more and more grating. Maybe I should give it another spin, but I'm just traumatised by the memory.
― Chewton Mendip (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 10 August 2012 17:59 (eleven years ago) link
There were reports of Lindstrom suffering from crippling writer's block when trying to make that album and it shows, there's a load of bluster to disguise the lack of tunes. Maybe he's just loosened up now the pressure's off.
― Matt DC, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:02 (eleven years ago) link
Can I say something now and not get in shit for it?

mmmmmmmaybe?
― Chewton Mendip (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 10 August 2012 18:04 (eleven years ago) link
Oh I'm too embarrassed never mind
― Ówen P., Friday, 10 August 2012 18:05 (eleven years ago) link
No, come on, out with it. ::hides horse bucket behind back::
― Chewton Mendip (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 10 August 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link
ach ffffuck it. I have a white label remix of a Lindstrom track coming out next week. Judge away, it's my first one, like, the first time I've got up the nerve to put out any techno music.

Embarrassing?
::swaps horse bucket for rose petals and daisy chains and festoons them about your head::
This is going to be super-awesome amazing (and I would say that without the ILX connection) and I am so excited to hear it!
― Chewton Mendip (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 10 August 2012 18:17 (eleven years ago) link
Well, I'm proud of it as a first effort (otherwise I wouldn't have mentioned it) but it's not gonna raise the wigs of any techno hardheads. Thanks guys you're sweet.
― Ówen P., Friday, 10 August 2012 18:21 (eleven years ago) link
Love Lindstrom and Prins Thomas together. Lindstrom & Todd Terje is not too shabby either.
― Moka, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:22 (eleven years ago) link
ówen, is that white label you're referring to different from this? (posted on lindstrøm's fd wall/twitter last week) http://www.piccadillyrecords.com/products/Lindstrom-DeJavuNoReleaseRubNTugOwenPallettRemixes-SmalltownSupersound-84897.html

"The OwP remix is a Prins Thomas favourite and has been played a lot by him already."

I didn't think 6 cups was jokey either. I just feel like I didn't give it the time to get into enough. I know at some point I will. It's not the kind of thing that needs to be arresting from the outset anyway.
― owenf, Friday, 10 August 2012 22:12 (eleven years ago) link
Nice, Owen! I can't wait to hear your first (released) foray into techno. I've made some things over the last year but too embarrassed to let anyone hear 'em. Plus, you know, I'm not a real musician.
― heiswagger (rennavate), Friday, 10 August 2012 23:40 (eleven years ago) link
lol, thanks matt
― contenderizer, Friday, 10 August 2012 23:48 (eleven years ago) link
right on owen! can't wait to hear it!!!

these new tracks are bloody great. and echoing everyone, really looking fwd to the remix OP!
― Roz, Sunday, 12 August 2012 13:29 (eleven years ago) link
Is the Soundcloud link we're raving about the original or a Todd Terje remix (or a collaboration)?
― Matt DC, Sunday, 12 August 2012 13:40 (eleven years ago) link
Rà-àkõ-st? Lindstrom original, mixed by Terje.
― Roz, Sunday, 12 August 2012 13:52 (eleven years ago) link
actually now i'm not sure - i just checked the juno link where it says (Todd Terje extended edit) for both ra-ako-st and eg-ed-osis. I guess it's a collab?
― Roz, Sunday, 12 August 2012 13:58 (eleven years ago) link
Ra-ako-st is pretty good but Eg-ed-osis is AMAZING. It just goes up and up and up!

HURRAH:
August 16, 2012For Immediate Release LINDSTRØM ANNOUNCES NEW FULL-LENGTH ALBUM, SMALHANS, OUT NOVEMBER 5TH ON SMALLTOWN SUPERSOUND LISTEN TO SMALHANS’ “RÁ-ÁKÕ-ST” NOW
Smalhans is the fifth solo album by Norwegian producer Hans-Peter Lindstrøm, and his second album to come out in 2012. Earlier this year he released Six Cups of Rebel, which was a very personal album for Lindstrøm and showed his more experimental side. Now, this forthcoming record, out November 5th on Smalltown Supersound, finds Lindstrøm back on the dance floor with six monumental tracks – classic Lindstrøm style. Smalhans was mixed by his friend Todd Terje, who has also made extended edits which will be released as 12”s. The album title is an old Norwegian word and means scarcity or simply poverty. Each track on the album is titled after a traditional Norwegian meal. Smallhans is Lindstrøm at his very best, perfected by Todd Terje.

there is a blog that 'shops people's hands to make them tiny. i suppose that explains the how more than the why.
