Also check out Padded Cell on Suicide Recordings, they've done a few remixes here and there too. Very good stuff.

lindstrom tends to have two sides to his sound - the tripped out space disco and the noodly muso side. the 'i feel space' 12' demonstrates this to a t (which incidentally he recorded four years ago).
he has a forthcoming 12' coming called 'serious syntoms' which is the rawest thing he's ever done. endlessly repeating, slighty modulating moog bassline, live snare and hi hat and a bit of arp synth. sounds like it was recorded live in one take. mega.
i spent a very drunken night out with prins thomas recently and i get the impressiont that what we have heard so far is only the tip of the iceberg. mad, as they both have families and other jobs to keep them busy too.

anyway, "Call Me Mr. Telephone"-- is awesome if folks haven't heard. They seems to be heavily influenced by 70's rock but not in a gimmicky way??? he goes kinda fleetwood mac in the middle of that song but its totally nice.

Any individual track recommendations? I was blown away by "I Feel Space," and anything even half as good would be fantastic...

yknow, my experience of lindstrom & prins thomas has had pretty much the opposite trajectory to biz's. fell head over heels to "i feel space" on first listen, got their lp, dug out old radiophonic workshop comp, put on lava lamp and space goggles. came over all warm as the cosmic vibes reach my very core. before i know what's hit me, the warmth has DRAINED as i realise that OH SHIT IT'S NOT 1974, IT'S THE LATE NINETIES AND I'M BACK IN LOVE WITH BLUE STATES AND K&D AND FILA FUCKING BRAZILIA.
the album gets an occasional listen, and the juan atkins remix sure is pretty. the goggles are now buried in a landfill site somewhere in south manchester.

My money on them being the next group to get the "oh my god it's the future" hype - although they need to do a few more tracks first.

that's funny i was totally going to post the same thing today - i had a similar epiphany yesterday while i was listening to an akwaaba album in my car. i think fila brazillia is a closer match than k&d or blue states. but there really wasn't anything wrong with fila brazillia for the first few albums, was there? it wasn't until they really started to stray into aimless jazz and folk-rock that it got tiring, right? as long as they stuck w/ the 4/4 i could (and still can) really get into FB ... so i'm hoping lindstrom reasserts the danciness, soon. maybe on an upcoming solo album?
or maybe i need to shell out for the major swellings album ...

There's a dank mystery in "Under Trees," the closer from It's Alright Between Us as It Is, that I've always found rather special.
Disappointed that there seems to be no CD version of the new album -- I suppose if there are hardcore Lindstrøm collectors out there, they're used to buying 12"s anyway.

if we're talking favorite late-period Lindstrom tracks, mine is probably Algorytme:

the segment from the breakdown through where it all clicks together is one of my favorite bits in his entire catalogue

I like this album a lot more than I expected reading the previous comments. "Syreen" and "Nightswim" are the kinds of synth-driven dance tracks he has made a career out of (still excellent). But the latter two tracks are where my ears perked up: "The Rind" has a killer breakdown and build up led by ascending jazz chords and a relentless beat punctuated by disco strings; the title track is blissful and evolves into an extended electric guitar meditation.

'Everyone else is a stranger' probably my fav
