The Studio - West Coast

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?

I didn't check the tracklist carefully, but that's an odd omission. I'm curious if he plans on a stand-alone 12" for that. If you don't have The Crepes LP yet, pick that up. It's relatively inexpensive considering how good it is. I freaking love that album. Short and perfect.

ah n/m “practice” is on disc 3

yeah I did own that crepes album at one point, wasn’t really into it

cosign on The Crepes album

Anyone got the link for the Archive 4LP?

Don't see it on insta

Found it here, seems to be removed / sold out now: https://www.atelje.com/shop/dan-lissvik-archive-1ish-lp-edition

It was really pricey

https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/15833567?ev=rb

one copy on Discogs, looks reasonably priced to me, considering this is limited and there's no chance it will be repressed in this 4LP format.

back on sale

whoa thanks for posting! literally emailed him a couple weeks ago asking if he had plans to repress it lol

came to around $92 total with shipping to us, fwiw

he announced it on his instagram (atelje_) which is mostly about his art and clothing line and family and not very much about music but nevertheless super dope and 100% worth following if you're on insta

yeah I love his art! and his tye die sweatshirts

Received Archive 1-ish yesterday, yay! Shipped in gift wrap & sweet personalised seasons greetings card included <3

mine arrived too, with the same! so cool

just posted on his instagram... https://www.underallt.com/shop/p/under-allt-mellanrum-vinyl-lp

“super sunny balearic vibes to revive and relax”

Thanks! Ordered. ❤️

Hmmm looks like it's going up for pre-order at a few online stores too. Along with Archive 1!

AND Atelje - Meditation

archive 1ish, meditation, and 50/50 also available here: https://www.atelje.com/shop?category=Music

Aha!

Pre-ordered it from this stateside seller; saved a few on shipping in the process.

cheers Evan... wish this dude would release stuff on CD but the Under Allt stuff sounds great so I'm in

New Lissvik production:

anyone listened to his latest project
https://underallt.bandcamp.com/album/mellanrum

this is good, sounds more like "Studio" to me than the Atelje album

can we get a west coast repress or what

Yes, this album was released last year. It's great but too short. I think the Crepes album is one of the best things Lissvik has done outside Studio but unfortunately, that has been removed from streaming platforms. Kind of weird that they'd take their stuff off streaming when it is impossible to find in shops or online (unless you buy second hand). It's not like spotify is costing them sales when their shit isn't for sale. Anyway, Dan Lissvik is my favorite musician/producer of the last 15-20 years. Would like to have the money to buy one of his big artworks but unfortunately, i'm just a worker bee, not a CEO.

Same! Though I've purchased prints of his years ago. Those are very nice. However he puts stuff up for sale very rarely these days I think.

have the prices gone up? he had some handmade clothes up on his site awhile back, think a hand dip-dyed sweatshirt might have been $150? not cheap but not that expensive, like hip cool guy brand prices but not like fashion world commes des garcons or prada prices. i remember some ceramics that weren’t too bad either. but this was around early 2016 (i remember because i was considering throwing in a tshirt and vase w my preorder of 50/50 EP and meditation repress)

but shipping a big painting, yeah the cost of dhl would probably kill you. plus maybe now that he has a fancy gallery it’s more expensive. i agree though, i love his paintings, particularly the plant ones, and i love his airbrushed / spray painted (?) weird foamy / melted looking sculptures

i meant early 2017*
