Roxy Music remixed by Todd Terje and Lindstrøm

January 10, 2012Comments Off

From Fact Magazine:
Roxy Music go under the disco scalpels of Todd Terje and Lindstrom & Prins Thomas for a new deluxe 12″ release from The Vinyl Factory.

Following on from their series of Bryan Ferry solo records, VF Editions now present remixes of two of Roxy’s most iconic tracks. Todd Terje, whose ‘Ragysh’ was for many one of 2011′s finest singles, presents an epic, dub-touched and powerfully grooving take on perennial dancefloor shaker ‘Love Is The Drug’, while Lindstrom and Prins Thomas reunite for a suitably blissed-out Balearic version of ‘Avalon’.

Pressed on 180-gram heavweight vinyl, the 12″ boasts exclusive cover, inner sleeve and label artwork based on the originals.

Todd Terje announces new EP + listen to new track

January 4, 2012Comments Off

The EP will be out on 12″ and digital the 16th of January. You can read more at Pitchfork here.

Please welcome: It’s The Arps! Oslo’s magic music maker Todd Terje has already gained a wunderkind like reputation for his gentle yet potent productions (we won’t mention the “E” word here) on labels like Full Pupp, Permanent Vacation or Running Back on top of being one of the best remixers money can buy (Shit Robot, Bryan Ferry, Dølle Jølle et cetera et cetera). What is there left for him to do? Establish a label of his own! “It’s The Arps” is the starting signal for Olsen. And what a splendid one it is. Created from scratch and solely on the mythical synthesizer ARP 2600 (check
www.letsnerd.com for help), it features four tracks (reads instant classics) that couldn’t be a better follow-up to his 2011 super hit EP “Ragysh”. Towering over the assortment is the laser crime scene called “Inspector Norse”. Defying genres and blinkers, this is finest goose bumps dance music that makes you whistle along, laughing and crying all at the same time – but the rest isn’t half bad either. The short, but sweet “Myggsommer” gives away Terje’s secret love for quirky exotika, whereas “Swing Star Pt 1” and its brother have a (balearic) brilliance and witchery to them that is rarely found nowadays. Powered by Smalltown Supersound and housed in a beautiful sleeve courtesy of Bendik Kaltenborn (www.benkalt.no). 100% Arp 2600 and 200% Todd Terje!”

Lindstrom on MTV Hive’s Most Anticipated Albums Of 2012 list

January 2, 2012Comments Off

Lindstrøm’s upcoming Six Cups Of Rebel (out 6th of February) is on MTV Hive’s most anticipated album of 2012 list. You can read more about the list here. And this is what they say:

The mono-monikered Norwegian electronica producer may be most widely known for his remixes (for LCD Soundsystem, Glasser, Franz Ferdinand and others) and his collaborations. His last major opus was 2010’s sexy space-disco collaboration with singer Christabelle, Real Life is No Cool, and before that he had success with two albums that he made with Prins Thomas. But Hans-Peter Lindström is going it alone on his next album. Due February 6 via Smalltown Supersound, Six Cups of Rebel isn’t just Lindström’s return to solo music-making — his last lone effort was 2008’s Where You Go, I Go — it also represents his vocal debut.
