wacky is the word

Number None, Wednesday, 4 January 2012 19:49 (twelve years ago) link

well I like it enough for both of you guys and probably everyone else in the world

DWARF ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA (jamescobo), Saturday, 7 January 2012 02:59 (twelve years ago) link

I like it a lot. Definitely functionally different from his other stuff, and wild with the comb filtering on everything

gord downer (Ówen P.), Saturday, 7 January 2012 03:35 (twelve years ago) link

I don't hate this but it does seem a bit of a mis-step, especially the end of Magik and the first two minutes of Call Me Anytime.

listened to this for the first time today while shoveling my driveway. good snow shoveling music.

(usual grumble)

Is this actually out yet? Available to listen or purchase anywhere (legally)?

White Chocolate Cheesecake, Sunday, 15 January 2012 20:33 (twelve years ago) link

Liked it well enough on first listen. (I think it's still promo at this point.)

Wondered what happened to those dudes.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Monday, 16 January 2012 21:17 (twelve years ago) link

unfortunately that track is better than anything on the new Lindstrom album...

i like blondes a lottt but idk if i see the connection to lindstrom rly

psychgawsple, Wednesday, 25 January 2012 04:53 (twelve years ago) link

busy + wacky = valid description tags.

result : not for me

as an aside : i really liked the 1st 120 days album (ltd edition with remixes by secret machines), so have high hopes for the new album ..

mark e, Thursday, 26 January 2012 14:13 (twelve years ago) link

this album is super fun

otm. don't get why ppl h8 this album.

lag∞n affiliated (The Reverend), Friday, 27 January 2012 03:06 (twelve years ago) link

I'm not sure about it really, it's fine when it's on but there's not much that's very compelling about it. Like he was seriously blocked or something at the time and compensated for a lack of ideas with a lot of swirly tricks.

Matt DC, Sunday, 29 January 2012 20:15 (twelve years ago) link

Best Coast remix is out. I kinda like it. He played it as the "finale" in his set at Santos last fall

dmr, Monday, 30 January 2012 19:46 (twelve years ago) link

upon reflection, i only really love "de javu" and "magic"

lag∞n affiliated (The Reverend), Monday, 30 January 2012 21:18 (twelve years ago) link

ok so Todd Rundgren has remixed a Lindstrom track.

owenf, Thursday, 2 February 2012 22:36 (twelve years ago) link

Pretty woah but i think i'd prefer the other way around

It's cool, but essentially this :/

I'm not going leftfield on you... (hypehat), Thursday, 2 February 2012 23:00 (twelve years ago) link

it does sound exactly how you would imagine it to. Maybe Rundgren will let him into some old multitracks in return.

owenf, Thursday, 2 February 2012 23:55 (twelve years ago) link

is there another version of that anywhere? my soundcard doesnt like however they put that in to flash :(

Ok, I'll bite in that obscenely late-to-the-party kind of way. Who has a Spotify playlist of these guys?

Naive Teen Idol, Friday, 3 February 2012 02:21 (twelve years ago) link

Whatever, did one myself:

I agree Six Cups is fun (funny, even). But can see why a lot of folk who like the previous albums are gonna balk at this. It's like he thought "how can I combine Blast Of Loser and Little Drummer Boy and make them even more annoying?". The 'singing' on tracks 3 and 4 is going to get some getting used to as well. But I think he needed to do something a bit different at this point. And I love the arc of the record, the blurred edges between tracks (it feels a bit like a mix CD) and the way it comes full circle at the end. The whole is definitely > the sum of its parts.

one month passes...

tbh, I think losing the vocals on "Magik" and "Quiet Place to Liev" would have dramatically improved this for me

stan this sick bunt (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Tuesday, 6 March 2012 21:53 (twelve years ago) link

I'm an unrepentant Lindstrom stan and I'm having trouble with this. The vocals really are too much, they're just done in this kind of goofy camp tone (maybe even pitch shifted? I don't know, they just sound wrong) and it really rather spoils it for me.

The guy's body of work has been so consistently amazing I'll forgive him a misstep like this, but I really am feeling it's a bit of a misstep.

...I KERNOW BECAUSE YOU DO (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Tuesday, 6 March 2012 21:56 (twelve years ago) link

otm

if this whole project were a collab w/ mungolian jetset it would have the potential to be amazing, instead its just a goofy mess for most of it

⚓ (gr8080), Tuesday, 6 March 2012 22:14 (twelve years ago) link

anyone wanting newer 6 cups / mungolian jetset style wackiness that works should check out the todd terje mix of bjorn torske's "langt fra afrika".

akadarbarijava (psychgawsple), Wednesday, 7 March 2012 04:25 (twelve years ago) link

Actually slightly disappointed by the new Lindstrøm album. Sounds a bit too "organic", almost as if Prins Thomas were involved actually...

Oh thank god!

Matt DC, Friday, 10 August 2012 09:53 (eleven years ago) link

Signs are good. Can't wait til I have left 1996 and am back on a computer with Flash again so I can listen to it.

Chewton Mendip (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 10 August 2012 09:55 (eleven years ago) link

yeah the new single is fucking fantastic

heiswagger (rennavate), Friday, 10 August 2012 15:46 (eleven years ago) link

OK 30 seconds in, and Lindstrom has already got his thing back.

This is an immense, immense relief to me.
