Lindstrom: Where You Go I Go Too

no

LJ, listen to "I Feel Space" by Lindstrom, it's amazing.

xxpost I hate you

west coast just sounds like those shitty 'funk' albums on factory that no one except tony wilson gave a damn about

It's like Marcello but with less correctness.

Louis has it really taken you this long to listen to it? It's like the most LJ-friendly dance album imaginable.

Nobody recommended it to me! They ought to have done. Will be pursuing Moulton next.

Also, In Sides is slightly more LJ-friendly imo

didn't realise the scandobalearic house mafia were policing this thread. is it problematic that i like lindstrom and don't like studio?

the yelpy 80s robert smith vocals on the studio are distracting to me. never heard lindstrom sing. also lindstrom no matter what kind of music he's doing has a certain smoothness and perpetual flow to his music. studio have a jerky fractured factory feeling that reminds me of a certain ratio. it interferes with me trying to get my cosmic disco groove on like i'm being needled in the kidneys by those basslines when i'm trying to lie back in the sun

"Problematic" only in the sense of being wrong. If it helps you to parse, Marcello's always been king of the "I was there the first time and saw through it even then" dismissals. Though he might add some allusion to actually telling Tony Wilson as much.

I like yr imagery in that last post, kidneys etc.

(and "wrong" only in the sense of "my mileage varies substantially", obv)

the yelpy 80s robert smith vocals on the studio are distracting to me

definitely - though i love studio in their non-vocal moments (that d.lissvik solo album was better than west coast, i thought)

not hearing this at all

so many varieties of rong in only 2 posts

OMG this album. I have no idea why I missed it for so long, but so glad for finding a used copy the other night. This is so so so great. Wishing I'd have had more time to import the bonus disc of the Prins Thomas edits though, I want more.

Going on a train right across the Alps in a couple of months, might have to dig this out again.

we all fell space since the loft era and the paradise garage. I fell
space and universe every time music gets kosmic and synthetic and
shouts body and soul. Then from New york to chicago, over Detroit with gary numan's cars, italian and electronic european cerrone and
moroder things ... All the sounds are compressing and invite us to
gather, wherever we come from; that is all about with scando-med music. Travel all over the Whord by the extremities. North and south,
black and white, find out what common is between krautrock and disco
or the possible alliance of rythm. That music is utopic like the hippies were at least.Dreamy and psychedelic, background the Sun of the baléares and the everlasting scandinavian summer !

bears repeating

i fell space and universe = chop world down w/ kosmische feels

love this fucking album

if you're looking for a different experience check out the LP - quite different edits and cool in its own right.

Universe?

Inspired by this thread, I just copped the vinyl for $10 on eBay. Looking forward to blissing out to it!

damn, i never find good deals on eBay. I should try harder I think. anyway, i bought this on vinyl too and it's a great listen.

the title-track especially has aged so exquisitely

It’s magical, one of my favorite songs ever.

“grand ideas” is still so thrilling
