Lindstrom & Prins Thomas are the shit

"Rothaus" A+

"Rothaus" A+

^^^!

Loving the fuck out of this.

Still need to spin "Tirsdagsjam" at some point soon.

can't wait to hear it! not finding it anywhere online...

Give me more of this white blazer-wearing alien sexmusic.

nothing's stuck with me yet, but this album sounds so BIG

Skal Vi Prove Naa is my favourite so far but I'm really trying to work out where the first bit of that tinkly melody comes from. It's something very famous and typically tasteless from the 80s.

I might actually like this more than any part of the album. Cool that it's a stand-alone entity.

Aww - I wasnt going to download this, but then I read the thread. Curse you, the internet... Just adding to itunes now. God knows when I'll get a chance to listen to it

High point to me is still the synths in cisco

wow this album is rad. sounds less like space, more like floating through clouds and blue sky. would like to listen to this aboard a jet

No that was the last Lindstrom album.

This is an amazing headphone record - the sounds just fly around your head.

first heard this friday, thought it was ok but not great. heard a couple times during the day friday, then played it first thing saturday morning and started to really get into it. it's now sunday morning and i can't listen to anything else. playlist is on repeat (playlist also includes Mammut single).

xxxpost, completely hear that tinkly 80s melody in 'Skal vi prove naa' too but can't place it. argh!

so, a minute into track 2 of the new album and ummm......I agree with the title of this thread

Yeah, just gave it a listen tonight, pretty damn great. It draws on a lot that seems (or maybe only now, after anything/everything beardodisco, seems) familiar but puts it all together beautifully.

I love how sonically playful this is.

I'm kind of obsessed by the way the drums sound on this.

A lot of it sounds like a less proggy, more balearic take on the Alex Moulton album.

anyone know who plays what with these two? i assume that lindstrom is manning the synths, but the drumming and guitar flourishes on here are pretty impressive too.

I imagine the live instrumentation part is driven by Prins

it's def to the album's credit that programmed and non-programmed elements sound wonderful together, it's pretty difficult to distinguish between the two. can't wait to see them play this stuff live

Lindstrøm's drumming and the most "instrumentalist" of them. There's a great pic of the two in their studio in the latest edition of Groove magazine. They also elaborate a bit about how they worked stuff out.

Yeah, Prins is less instrumentally hands-on. Lindstrøm is really the studio whiz.

isn't groove in german tho? still, thanks for the tipp

I was gonna say, there's definitely live guitar and drums on the last Lindstrom album.

yeah i remember people saying he was doing a decent amount of live instrumentation at the recent shows in support of wygigt. didn't he start out as country, anyway?

'Skal Vi Prove Naa is my favourite so far but I'm really trying to work out where the first bit of that tinkly melody comes from. It's something very famous and typically tasteless from the 80s.'

reminds me of madonna's holiday

Hahaha of course.

it's 3 am and i'm listening to thissssss

this is basically all the music i have fallen in love with over the last two years summed up into one album

(lol it was about this time last year that ilm fell in love with portishead... will lindstrøm & prins take the 2009 poll?)

it's 3 am and i'm listening to thissssss

that sounds about perfect imo

soooo fuuuuckkiinnggg gooodddd

I think the album as a whole might be a bit too noodly for me to really fall in love with but that first track rules.

haha my friend kept saying it was "jammy"

first heard this friday, thought it was ok but not great. heard a couple times during the day friday, then played it first thing saturday morning and started to really get into it. it's now sunday morning and i can't listen to anything else

This is how pretty much every Lindstrøm album goes for me. Can't wait to hear this new one.

:-\

'first heard this friday, thought it was ok but not great. heard a couple times during the day friday, then played it first thing saturday morning and started to really get into it. it's now sunday morning and i can't listen to anything else'

Exactly - loads of it reminds me of Harmonia as well (esp Deluxe) which I've been listening to a fair bit this year. Be interesting to see if there's anything on here's that is a directly "inspired" by another track as the one of WYGIGT that's basically Michael Schreive with a disco baseline... Not spotted anything yet

this is REALLY jammy btw--i dont think ppl who disliked wygigt will like this v much--my recommendation:

<////@~~~~~~~ u dig
