The Studio - West Coast

this came up on my ipod while out yesterday and i thought i was listening to something from yearbook 2 i'd overlooked...until the vocals came in

^ in a similar way when i threw this on earlier- http://www.discogs.com/Bill-Laswell-Hear-No-Evil/master/12791- i spaced out and thought i was listening to the meanderthals album for a bit

brotherlovesdub OTM, the Taken by Trees album is amazing.

good album. that link up makes me want to really hear that meanderthals album now, ta.

There's some nice stuff too on the new Fontän album, Wintherhwila.

i do not think the taken by trees album is amazing. :/

i only listened to that ac cover and I thought it sounded not as good as i expected. Really it just sounds a bit T-Mobile ad focus-groupped

AC cover is bad but the rest is pretty great imo

speaking of fontan i finally heard their "rework" of amo1's "ride" and it fuckin rules

maybe like 1/2 of that taken by trees album is worth getting excited about but plaxico is OTM about certain songs sounding a little focus-group oriented

I wouldn't say it's amazing but it has a very autumn feel to it that I appreciate. To Lose Someone is my favorite.

ok ur right, this is awesome

Anna and Day by Day are my highlights after the first couple of listens.

ok so what does everyone think about this lake heartbeat business on service, another lissvik production- http://www.myspace.com/lakeheartbeat? seems a bit like that crepes ep or the tough alliance, but i like it less than either so far

Taken By Trees on Channel 4 tonight at 12.35 i see

did you guys get the crepes lp? did it come in wrapping paper like a present? also, the dust jacket on mine is autographed. the record is pretty good. not crazy about the singing but there is some really nice guitar.

Yeah, mine came like that too.

Crepes out on cd now.

New Dan Lissvik remix!

He has remixed the swedish band this is head's song 0002 and it's freakin' amazing!

^ would love to hear that. looks like he also did a playlist here that features this is head (not the remix tho) and a new track from lissvik

0002 remixes are on the this is head myspace btw... http://www.myspace.com/thsshd

um, guess that was said ha. at least mine is clickable!

That's THE way to go psychgawsple! I forgot http://

About the playlist. Dan did it for Rodeo Magazine and a short interview was made. Here you can find it: http://www.rodeo.net/radio-rodeo/2009/06/30/radio-rodeo-dan-lissvik-sv/

It is in swedish, tough...

non sequitur but "impossible" came up on shuffle yesterday when i was stressing out and i immediately regained sanity and perspective

that remix totally got me into the shout out louds

I asked Johan Wirfält at Rodeo Magazine if he had talk with dan about CRB's list where it was said that a new record with studio would be realesed this fall. Johan said that Dan repleid : "Han ljuger så det ryker i lästen". Which means "He lies to his socks is on fire".

Does anybody have the "Promotion Information" Mix they did a while back? Lost the MP3 and I'd really love to hear it again...

yep, here you are: http://www.mediafire.com/?z0jgn1tq1tz

anyone know anything about this group ikons?

http://www.srvc.se/

Studio spin-off made my top 30 - Fontän – Winterhwila (Information)

anyone know anything about this group ikons?

Just listened to "Africa" - it's "Hallogallo" with Sonic Boom guitars instead of Rother's. Will definitely check this out. Hope there'll be some more 'challenging' tracks too, despite loving the shit out of every Neu!-clone I encounter :)

ya this ikons stuff is sounding pretty good on first listen. sounds like a less bubbly, more psychedelic version of something that would be out on dc records

i have listened to that ikons and agree it sounds good on first listen however over repeated listens it gets samey. certain tracks really start off strong and then you are left with a "this song needs another change to really be great feeling. i can see certain djs using parts of the songs, cutting them up and seguewaying them into something awesome tho ala optimo.

are there only two lissvik remixes?

I only have two. The Fever Ray and This Is Head. Both are great.

yeah those are the two i have, i was kinda hoping there were more

y'know Taken by Trees is touring with El Perro Del Mar. One album produced by Rasmus, the other by Lissvik. If only those guys would be on tour with them. I'm going to see the show but I'm not expecting it to come close to the beauty that is captured on the studio versions.

Bought this on a whim last night, and while I was initially upset at myself for my disgusting lack of restraint in spending money on music, I knew it would all be well after I listened to it, and (halfway through the last track) I can say all is better than well.

This is a damn near perfect album, if not a bona-fide perfect album.

I saw the El Perro Del Mar / Taken By Trees show last week and it was incredible. They shared a band who basically sounded like a looser, country-fied Studio. The band was fantastic and created the same spaced out groove Lissvik and Rasmus put on their latest albums.

^gah, didn't know this was happening and it came to my town yesterday! so bummed

country-fied Studio

sorry can't be bothered to read the thread - have these guys split up or something? How come no follow-up to 'West Coast'?

Busy in 2009: Lissvik in the Crêpes, also producing other artists (Lissvik did Taken by Trees, Hägg did Fontän and El Perro del Mar). But I totally agree that it's time for new Studio material!

also Yearbook 2 was a followup to West Coast

Not really, it was a compilation of remixes.

right. and if anything "yearbook 2" was a follow up to "yearbook 1"

yeah but it's still stuff they did after West Coast instead of splitting up

i'm starting to think there may be no more original material from these guys. which i GUESS i can deal with if they keep evolving as amazing producers/remixers, but it's still kind of a bummer. did they ever tour the us?

This is what I say to myself every day... :(

they don't have any definite album release plans, although they have three albums worth of material 'in the can.'

...

Someone find and open that can

i still think 'Indo' is their best track, and i don't like their remixes.
