Lindstrom & Prins Thomas are the shit

I love the constant energy

of course I dont think it's appropriate for all occasions

I played Vos-sako-rv and Va-fle-r at a friend's party a few weeks ago and got looks of extreme puzzlement from most everyone there. I chalk this up to my friends preferring more traditionally housey stuff, though (they came unglued for the Morales remix of "Totally" and Roger Sanchez' "Another Chance"); in any event, they better get on the trolley as I plan on finding a way to work both of those in at every possible occasion in the future. and needless to say I cannot WAIT for the Terje extendathon remixes of both of those two tracks in particular.

hey that prins thomas album IS really good - had kind of not investigated sooner b/c i'd never been that taken w/his solo stuff before but it's really awesome (and...kinda lindstrømmy!)

i played vo-sako-rv at a party and it killed

I played Faarikaal at a gay bar and it killed

I find Smalhans alternately extremely annoying or anxiety inducing. There's something so grating about the relentless upbeatness of it, the arpeggios etc. It gives me a headache.

I'm finding this too - I feel as though the record's horizons are somehow too small? 'Where you go I go too' also had that overly exuberant feeling, but it felt like it was travelling across a huge expanse, like there was enough space for the music to leap as far as it wanted. The tracks on Smallhans feel somehow trapped, like there's not enough room for their bounciness.

you've described my problem with it better than i could, thanks.

Where You Go, L&PT II, & Cristabelle, Six Cups and Smallhans is a crazy run- the records have more in common than seems on the surface, but cover a lot of ground. They're upbeat without lacking depth, like a comedic director who doesn't get the credit until you look back a his peak and see just how consistently insightful he was, how subtle he was in exploring his shtick.

Yah but I think there's been a major stylistic shift with Six Cups and Smallhans, a move toward massive layers of mid-range synths. I feel like these last two records are about Lindstrøm exploring his harmonic sensibilities (he loves Shepard sequences) rather than pushing any envelope

The thickness of the mid-range polyphony on Smalhans reminds me more of Jean-Michel Jarre than anything

What I get out of Smallhaus is an experiment to see how much he can push Shepard spiral staircases, without getting exhausting. I can totally see how it could be anxiety inducing, but when I'm feeling in the space for it, it really gets me.

Hell in a car, sounds great in a bar

hi

omg hell yeah

Serious flashes of Mandarine Girl with Lamm-El-Aar.

Yeah Mandarine Girl is all over this.

Also Orbital's "Spare Parts Express" if they'd been limited to one synthesizer.

Too bad the Pitchfork Festival in Paris is so much better than the one stateside...

oh man

^lindstrøm bringing the cheese to terje's burger

That shit's fuckin dope.

Mighty fine.

yes!

This is brilliant. I know we just had two new Lindstrom albums but I kind of need a full album by these guys together, like now.

a feelgood track every jan, thankyou based todd

ánd they're touring together! when's the next 12" due with smalhans' terje edits..?

this sounds like a trance remix of "another station"

not sure about it tbh

it's a bit shrill, imo.

This feels very unsophisticated compared to Smallhans, perhaps even to "Inspector Norse"

Yeah it's well cheesy. Not that I don't like it though.

Can't wait for 'Magaluf' to come out. It's okay, it's fun, bit by the numbers. Haven't been massively into what Lindstrom and Terje have been up for the past couple of years, but I think that's just because my tastes have drifted away a bit from the happy melancholy nu-disco stuff. Lindstrom's auto-accompaniment modulations are starting to grate a bit now, I dunno.

OTOH I queued up everything by Prins Thomas on Spotify t'other day and there's so much cool stuff in there. Amazing basslines!

The working title for the Todd Terje & Lindstrøm project is "Cowley".

The original is fun enough but the Diskjokke remix is super-great and has this amazing 'pew pew pew!' noise over the top.

What Matt DC said. Pew Pew Pew noises are out of this world.

awesome

ay is the Vos-Sako-Rv Terje vocal dub in that Youtube above available to download anywhere or is just a cut and shut of the 3min Petit edit?

they made the multitrack stems available in the remix contest released above so i literally just loaded the files and hit export and got the extended dub (or whatever). mods feel free to edit out the link if you think it violates the rules: https://mega.co.nz/#!LIwDTQaI!Any99zzx3C0HQMWqcIgJ2FvyrGB3YU8OPYsgn33tFMw
