Prins Thomas is now intrinsically linked to the eclectic "space-disco" sounds emanating from his homeland of Norway. Alongside Hans-Peter Lindstrøm their eponymous debut album and Reinterpretations re-workings have opened up their sounds to a whole new audience of music lovers. Prins Thomas has also been making a name for himself with his remixes for Blackjoy, Justus Köhncke, Force Of Nature, Simian Mobile Disco, and for breaking sound systems the world over as a DJ of eclectic dexterity. This collection provides a snapshot of Thomas M. Hermansen in action across two sumptuous discs of avant-garde dance grooves, twisted funk, spaced-out electronics, psychedelic fusion, classic techno, disco, prog rock and all manner of leftfield concoctions. Across 36 tracks we get Hawkwind jamming with Visnadi, Bob James going toe to toe with The Salsoul Invention, Joe Meek twisting by the pool with Holger Czukay, Boards of Canada segueing into Lindstrøm and Closer Musik doing the Detroit tango with Recloose, Carl Craig and Parliament.

Title:	Goettsching - Blackbelt Anderson Rmx.
Label:	FULL PUPP (NORWAY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	FP 003EP

"When Manuel Goettsching of German Krautrock luminaries Ashra Temple switched on his sequencer in 1981 and just improvised with synth and guitar for 60 minutes mainly to have some soothing sounds for his own pleasure during a plain flight, he couldn't dream that his E2-E4 would not only become one of the major single influences for Detroit techno but still influence a horde of crazy disco Norwegians to pay tribute another two decades down the line. Well, daddy don't you know that things go in circles! His royal highness Prins Thomas first tricks you onto your dancing feet with a solid percussive disco groove before wrapping your head with gentle gliding synthclouds that are reminiscent of the original's repetitive layers -- before things go too cosy he unleashes the bassline that grows into an acidic monster -- nasty. Black Belt Andersen attacks the theme more in a swift ninja stealth mode: over a thumping funk beat he spreads out the sweet synth melodies and effect-laden guitar lines and lets them blossom into full beauty -- stunning!"

"Norway and no end.... thank god! Oslo-based producer and DJ Thomas M. Hermansen aka Prins Thomas is solely responsible for this new masterpiece on Full Pupp Recordings and, my friends outside, Fehrara is one of the most thrilling records of the season! The A-side starts with this kind of very popular disco sound Full Pupp stands for... amazing!
