I found a load of remixes on Spotify and just swoooooooned to all the swoooooshiness.

His Doves-Jetstream remix is recommended (if only the Doves' lead singer had a better voice it would have been perfect).

Damn, tickets not on sale yet.
What do you reckon that the Spectrum advertised at another Corsica Studios night is the one I like and not that Lairstep nonsense with the same name?

Dammit, why am I on every mailing list for every RUBBITCH venue in London (and some in NYC) but not for one that has stuff I'd actually WANT to go to (like this):

I'm not complaining. The podcast was great, and getting early bird tickets is a happy bonus.

exciting stuff..
― Roger Sánchez Broto (vain_bowers), Monday, 5 October 2009 17:24 (sixteen years ago)
weird they felt the need to include a single from 6 years ago, especially since it's already on the lindstrom comp.
― mizzell, Tuesday, 6 October 2009 17:10 (sixteen years ago)
really digging this album!!!
― Bobby Wo (max), Thursday, 15 October 2009 15:15 (sixteen years ago)
pretty difft vibe from any of his last 3-4 releases but still hits that sweet spot
max's sweet spot

been listening to II a lot lately - one of my favourites of the year no question. love all the sparkly tinkly sounds on flue paa veggen and when the aaaahh vocals sort of unexpectedly turn up towards the end <3 <3
― Roz, Friday, 20 November 2009 14:34 (sixteen years ago)
I'm not really getting II that much, more looking forward to the Christabelle album, but then again it took me a while for 'Where you go...'
― Roger Sánchez Broto (vain_bowers), Friday, 20 November 2009 14:46 (sixteen years ago)
i'm looking forward to the Christabelle album too especially going on "Lovesick" and max's enthusiastic description of it on the other thread. also 40 minute jam of "Little Drummer Boy" wtf.
but right now, quiet night at home, II's noodliness = yes.
― Roz, Friday, 20 November 2009 14:55 (sixteen years ago)
I can't understand how anyone could not dig this album. It's like prog heaven.
― Cosmic Dentistry (Masonic Boom), Friday, 20 November 2009 14:57 (sixteen years ago)
II probably would get my album of the year simply because it sounds good no matter what mood I'm in.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 20 November 2009 15:35 (sixteen years ago)
The banjo always surprises me, no matter how many times I hear this album.
― Cosmic Dentistry (Masonic Boom), Friday, 20 November 2009 17:07 (sixteen years ago)
really like what someone posted upthread (was it you Ned?) about the programmed bits and the live bits, just how seamless it all sounds.
― Roz, Friday, 20 November 2009 17:25 (sixteen years ago)
Probably not me but I'll take the compliment!

They were, separately, absolutely amazing last night. Prins Thomas DJed for the first couple of hours and then teed Lindstrom up for his live set with - get this - a cosmic beatless synth version of Debussy's Clair de Lune. Which was actually sort of gorgeous but the single soppiest thing I have ever seen on a dancefloor.
Then Lindstrom came on and played Where You Go I Go Too as his first track and people went mental. He also did The Contemporary Fix, Grand Ideas, I Feel Space (omg so awesome) and a few other things. Also Baby Can't Stop was played as the penultimate track, the first half, with a moodier and more minimal baseline with Christabelle's vocals chopped up over the top, and then in the second half exploded into the full version with the proper bassline, vocals, brass and everything. Then Prins came back and absolutely killed it for another three hours or so, including a disco dub edit of Layla by Derek and the Dominos. I have now seen the Lex dancing to Eric Clapton.
The other highlight was Horse Meat Disco dropping Timecode by Justus Kohnke which reminded me quite how much I love that record.

a cosmic beatless synth version of Debussy's Clair de Lune
presumably Isao Tomita's version - would love to hear this on a big system
― mdskltr (blueski), Sunday, 29 November 2009 19:17 (sixteen years ago)
Yeah that's the version - it sounded pretty amazing on the Corsica soundsystem, which is one of the best in London.
― Space Battle Rothko (Matt DC), Sunday, 29 November 2009 20:01 (sixteen years ago)
gutted, missed it on saturday, went to Benetti in Brixton instead (due to financial constraints). Was is superb?
― owenf, Monday, 30 November 2009 20:34 (sixteen years ago)
been listening to II a whole lot for a week or so. wonderful, obviously.
but has anyone else noticed the odd clipping on "For Ett Slikk Og Ingenting" (one of my faves) that sounds a bit like somebody tapping a mic? they appear in arrhythmic pops throughout a long stretch of the track and just seem to clash so strongly with smooth, seamless sound of the record.
strikes me as odd that it they weren't edited out and that leads me to believe that they were intentionally left in. weird choice if so, imo.
and for the record, I've been listening to the released cd and a flac rip I did of it, so it's not just some audio error on the leaked mp3s. also, I did a quick comparison, and wow, do the leaked mp3s that I had been listening to prior sound crappy compared to the real deal. a gorgeous record like this one really loses something if it's too heavily compressed.

― donde está mia farrow, fa la la la la, la la la la (s1ocki), Monday, 14 December 2009 16:04 (sixteen years ago)
OK the clipping on "For Ett Slikk Og Ingenting" is basically ruining the song for me now. I can't listen to anything else on the track! am I crazy?
― original bgm, Tuesday, 15 December 2009 15:42 (sixteen years ago)
also, the clean guitar strumming on the last track always makes me think of faust iv.
― original bgm, Tuesday, 15 December 2009 15:46 (sixteen years ago)
The thing that sounds like someone's miked the plectrum instead of the instrument on a guitar track intended to be extremely low in the mix? Must definitely be intended, I'm thinking, but don't see why.
― anatol_merklich, Wednesday, 16 December 2009 23:25 (sixteen years ago)
(xpost!)
you're right, that's exactly what it sounds like.
so weird!
