Title:
West Coast
Label:
INFORMATION (UK)
Format:
CD
Price:
$15.50
Catalog #:
INF 002CD
2007 release, available again. This is the first full-length album by
Studio
, finally given a full-fledged release after a limited release disappeared from the racks last year. This is a schizophrenic musical project by
Dan Lissvik
and
Rasmus Hägg
, based in Gothenburg, Sweden.
West Coast
will appeal to fans of the new slo-mo Italo disco and is the missing link between
The Cure
and
Lindstrøm
touching on
Can
,
Neu
,
Happy Mondays
and
The Smiths
in their creation of an Afrobeat-dub-disco-indie-pop adventure. With nods to Balearic and Madchester, this collection of strung-out, dreamy electronic pop music already sounds like a modern-day classic.

INF 003EP
Mixes by Prins Thomas & Todd Terje. "Sweden's Studio make beautiful organic electronic music that falls midway between dance/indie and electronica. Here the Norwegian kings of nu-disco remix the bands signature release to devastating effect. A list of modern day comparisons would be with DFA / Fujiya & Miyagi / M83 / Lindstrom / Mogwai / A Mountain Of One. Latter day comparisons would read Cluster / Neu / La Dusseldorf / Kraftwerk / Manuel Gottsching."

Fontän
are
Jesper Jarold
and
Johan Melin
, whose fusion of rock and chamber music represents a similar kind of musical cross-pollination as
Studio
, who are featured here.
Hawkwind
and
Harmonia
united behind pumping drum machines, celestial strings, trippy rock, psych-disco -- like contemporary dance music for adults. Includes a remake by
A Mountain Of One
. The sprawling musical heritage of Fontän goes all the way back to legendary Swedish prog band
Nationalteatern
, of which Johan's parents were members.
