Lindstrom & Prins Thomas are the shit

Posted this on the TR thread two days ago, maybe the L & PT fans are the more appropriate crowd to sell it to: http://pitchfork.com/news/53929-todd-rundgren-lindstrm-serena-maneeshs-emil-nikolaisen-to-release-collaborative-album-runddans/

Also, there's a Full Pupp comp on the way: http://www.residentadvisor.net/news.aspx?id=23670

Todd Rundgren is an awesomely restless motherfucker

New PT album in less than 2 weeks :)

Ausgezeichnet.

Picked up the new album today. It's ace but a lot mellower than I was expecting. More spaced-out disco than space disco. Still loads of fun though.

"åpne slusa" is awesome

BETTER THAN THE TERJE ALBUM imo

It isn't. It's also less immediate than II. But I admire the dogged re-statement here of the PT sound, the complete absence of any zaniness whatsoever (although a few more melodies would have been good). The snowy cover pic is obviously influencing me here, but I wish this had come out a few months ago. It's not really springtime music.

Overall this looks to be another solid album. Also, for the third album in a row, my two favorite songs are the opening track and the last track (I do count Bobletekno (Perkmiks) /Symfonisk Utviklingshemning as one track though.)

loving this album

It's pretty good but no way as good as Terje. "Chug" isn't really my favourite nu disco mode.

comparing this to terje is stupid; its apples and oranges, make a delicious smoothie & enjoy your springtime

second track is reminding me of the D. Lissvik album from a few years ago

just a norwegian apple and orange smoothie today, servant. how delicious.

Nice album! Apples and oranges whatever, prefer this over the Terje one myself - if only cuz it's all new tracks.

Almost without fail, whenever I put on Prins Thomas, my girlfriend asks why I'm listening to "porn music".

^^that's ridiculous

not to mention what "Full Pupp" means in Norwegian

Zero-gravity space station sex...

This album is okay, a lot of it just washes over me in the way that solo Prins often does but the final track and Trans are amazing.

it was the perfect soundtrack to my stressful workweek; simultaniously motivational & relaxing

^I totally get that.
Got III this weekend. Played it at the end of the afternoon, sitting on the balcony with my gf, enjoying a couple of good beers, it felt like the best album ever.
(On a minor sidenote, I feel Thomas deserves his own thread but there's probably too little interest to warrant a separate one)

PT was on Beats In Space this week:

I played Cosmo Galactic Prism for the first time in quite a while last week and that's such a great mix with a groove & pace that's totally in and of itself. This looks like a different, much clubbier, kind of beast. Saw/heard him play near Amsterdam last month and that sounded like what this tracklist looks to deliver.

cosmo galactic prism is one of my alltime favorites. has he done any beardy/expansive mixes like that lately? i remember a fact podcast where he went heavy on the pat metheny/jean luc ponty end of things and i loved that too lol

The first half of his Trushmix is like that:

His Robert Johnson mix is somewhere halfway between Cosmo and the coming one maybe...

never heard PT do straight-up techno before but I like it https://soundcloud.com/prinsthomas/rif003-a-change

awesome

That's not him though, just a release on his label.

10 years of Full Pupp is sounding glorious, and I'm not even half way through the first CD.

lindstrøm-produced single by a singer called maya vik which sounds like real life is no cool taking a step from trippy disco into full-on bubblegum pop

so good.

His new one with Grace Hall is excellent too. That piano break!

https://soundcloud.com/feedelity/lindstrom-and-grace-hall-home-tonight-extended-version

also wonderful

i love his work with vocalists so much

Woah.

yes.
liking the sound of that.

From the brief audio clips in that interview, I can already tell the vocals are going to ruin this for me.

ferry + terje
rundgren + lindstrom

we should poll who prins thomas will collab with next

i vote gary numan

Sylvian and Jaki however the fuck you spell his last name.

Prins and Rick Wakeman.

a big jazz boy

Always wanted a sequel to Todd's "A Treatise on Cosmic Fire," actually...
