The Studio - West Coast

thanks a lot brimstead

Kind of psyched that Lissvik wrote back to me on instagram, but disappointed at his answer:

Well that didn't work. I just commented that 50/50 was a fantastic summer jam and asked if an album was in the works.

atelje_@ryno_ocl thanks a lot! -yup, that was the plan, but then we had kid no2. Lp2 within the next 10yrs 🙃 or so, promise! 💪🏽 Ep out in late August!

thx brimstead! mediafire still working! wooooow

One of the better 15-16 minutes I've had today.

on Spotify in the US!

this is sweet, love the A-side, can't wait to hear the long track

(thx for headsup to ILX user seandalai, who I follow)

ohhhh yeahhh

"Zephyr" lives up to its name

Woah love this! Just yesterday I was listening to Yearbook 1 and missing this sound.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcL-RjPomNg

Love this - it's the most Studio-est thing that Lissvik has done in ages (unless I missed something)

i just realized that atelje means studio in swedish

that explains so much about the lampshades and high heels ive been getting with my saved search on eBay for "atelje"

I knew atelje was studio but somehow have always been blind to the fact that that comes from 'atelier'.

oh doy of course

Lissvik's been adding new and back catalog items to his Bandcamp: https://danlissvik.bandcamp.com/ (including that deleted archive, but here, in hi-fi)

damn, i have the 50 tracks that brimstead posted upthread. this has 50 more!
will i spend $60 on this? maybe...

Whoa!!

While we've been debating whether or not to make the investment, Herr Lissvik's gone ahead & trimmed 15 dollars off the Archive's price.

are people still not big on Midnight? I listen to that record all the time. it's great.

Playing Midnight right now!

Archive just popped up on Spotify—all 100 tracks.

https://open.spotify.com/album/6r7SvoXD5Hgg3xrNr8FLvd?si=Q1iINtCeTPmt7xLi5lDuTg

100 songs, 4 hr 32 min. guess I don't need to worry about what the rest of my work soundtrack will be for the day.

i saw something on the usual pre-order outlets for like a half second

was it a repress of atelje 50/50 or something new w/ a similar cover?

anybody know what i'm talking about?

I haven’t seen him promote it on his IG account yet, which is where I usually see stuff first.

can someone pls C90 go archive 1

it's all good

first read about on Discogs,

"Available to download from Junior Executive Soundcloud page.
Released to coincide with the launch of a mini-collection for Fall/Winter 2019 co-designed by Dan Lissvik and Junior Executive, includes some Atelje demos and unreleased edits.
File name: AteljeTape_14Aug-16bit.wav"

have at it, https://soundcloud.com/junior-executive/atelje-mix-for-junior-executive

I love it when this thread is revived. It reminds me that of all the many obscure gems this forum has introduced me to in my capacity as a 13 year mainly-lurker, the Studio album is the best. It also led me to A Forest by The Cure which didn’t hurt either.

West Coast by Studio is my favorite album in the last 20 years. There have been a couple Atelje posts containing musical equipment and talk of being in the studio, so hopefully he'll release some more music soon.

reminder to self: listen to that Lissvek Bandcamp filedump some more

^seriously, so much gold. surprised more people here didn't go crazy over it at the time

Looks like some of Archive 1 will be released on vinyl later this year and new music in 2020.

I, like the article don, am a decade-plus mostly lurker for whom ilx has served as an introduction to a lot of amazing music I’d otherwise never have heard. And the one that I’m maybe the most grateful to have in my life is Studio - West Coast.

As far as Lissvik/Atelje I like the Meditation album and 50/50 / Zephyr

I'll fourth the sentiment.

I was just last weekend telling a friend, who, (a) naturally, hadn't ever heard of ILM's open Studio secret whilst (b) playing "West Coast" for her, that it's easily in my Top 10 of the 2000's, if not Top 10 all-time.

So yeah, pretty much any hint of activity by Lissvik (or the five years dormant {?} Hagg) and I chase it knowing it's unlikely to be another LP (much less EP) as front-to-back perfect as this one but I'll take hints of/odes to what's past in whatever's new.

I agree studio roolz, make more music and less shirts Dan

lissvik's ig story tipped to a new vinyl release of a handful of archive tracks

nothing new yet though

it's progress and that gives me hope

that’s cool, I was just checking the other week to see if any of that archive stuff had been released physically

Lissvik posted "Artprint for upcoming vinyl release" on insta 3 days ago.
Then snuck into the comments that it's going to be a 4 LP (50 tracks) release of Archive.

hell yeah

hope it doesn’t sell out in 3 seconds like everything else these days

This is now on sale. Total w/ shipping to the US is $136.

says limited to 200 copies, so be quick.

i went to look at it with no intention to purchase just to see the art and everything but now i'm 1140 kroner poorer wth

Would love this. Checked how much 850kr was. I’ll stick to digital

for $136 you could buy a near mint copy of west coast 2LP and have enough left over for dinner

well i can’t spend that right now, oh well, another one bites the dust

no “practice”, did that ever make it on wax? was it a bonus track on some edition of 7-Trx?
