Artist: LAID BACK
Title: Cocaine Cool
Label: BROTHER MUSIC (DENMARK)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.50
Catalog #: BMVI 001EP
Laid Back now run their own record company, Brother Music. The first release is a controversial track recorded at the same session that yielded their classic "White Horse," but was censored by their record company at the time. "Cocaine Cool" has been resurrected A.D. 2010. These grooves are musically a brother to "White Horse" and is the completion of an older recording that still sounds as fresh and relevant today as it did 29 years ago.


Artist: LAID BACK VS. SOUL CLAP
Title: Cocaine Cool (Soul Clap Remixes)
Label: BROTHER MUSIC (DENMARK)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.50
Catalog #: BMVI 002EP
Danish duo Laid Back made a surprising comeback to the clubs in 2010 with "Cocaine Cool." Not that they had ever been really forgotten: their electro-pop classic "White Horse" remained a sure shot in clubs for 30 years after its release. Boston's Soul Clap remix it into a more sparse arrangement, with an electro-funk beat, a hypnotic synth, a few dub effects and additional vocoder vocals. Besides an instrumental version there's also a jacking dub take and a re-edit of Laid Back's "Bakerman."


Artist: LAID BACK
Title: Get High
Label: BROTHER MUSIC (DENMARK)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.50
Catalog #: BMVI 003EP
"Get High" is a new track release from Laid Back. The lyrics may instantly lead your mind onto thinking of cannabis, but try to think about it in a broader context. Musically, the groove is kept groovy, with an updated twist. Danish electronic musician and DJ Kasper Bjørke has done a really cool remix. There's also a space mix, for those who like to get out there and more into it.


Artist: LAID BACK
Title: Cosyland
Label: BROTHER MUSIC (DENMARK)
Format: CD
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: BMVI 004CD
Five-track mini-album. For a short period in 1981 and with brand-new equipment such as a Roland 808, SH 101 and GR 500, classic German dance duo Laid Back made some 8-track "just for fun" jam tapes, mainly just to experiment for their own pleasure. From those sessions, only the legendary "White Horse" made it to a final treatment. The rest of the material was left behind, as their record company at the time found it too "different." After "White Horse" became a track that defined their sound, the duo thought it would be interesting to dig out leftovers to fulfill a documentation of that period -- crucial for the artists at the time. They were still innocent newcomers, who didn't actually know that they were creating a new sound. Recently, that leftover material was transferred from analog to digital, and, to stay as true as possible to original intentions, they only added vocals, bass and drum-beats ahead of a final mix.
