This Friday sees the release of Lindstrøm’s fifth solo album and first since 2012, “It’s Alright Between Us As It Is”, via Smalltown Supersound. Presented as one continuous stream of nine interlocked tracks, the new record aggregates all the best elements of the producer’s long and varied career: the Balearic free-disco excursions of his two albums with Prins Thomas, cosmic voyages in the vein of “Where You Go I Go Too”, and shimmering electronic pop, remindful of 2010’s “Real Life Is No Cool”.
After dropping the singles, “Shinin”, featuring Grace Hall and “Tensions”, the Norwegian space-disco don now shares another geat track, called “Bungl (Like A Ghost)”, featuring vocals from Jenny Hval. “This track is the glue to the album, and if it wasn’t for ‘Bungl,’ the album would not have happened. Jenny’s contribution transformed an unfinished idea into something really special,” says Lindstrøm.
Lindstrøm’s new album “It’s Alright Between Us As It Is” drops on October 20th via Smalltown Supersound/Feedelity Recordings. Pre-order it here.
