He used to play in country outfits, that's all I'm saying. Also a
Deep Purple tribute band. He came to disco/dance fairly late. His new
album has one track that clocks in at 30 minutes (!) - thank God no
country tracks do that (though it all sounds like one song to me!)
I'm surprised he's not more popular or even respected in 313 circles,
songs like Another Station are closer to some of the classic Detroit
sounds than other current sounds. Certainly here it's appealing to
the same crowds. All good though!

Yeah I think there's an influence, even though his roots lie in
country (!)

He may claim or reject, whatever. He sounds retro, obviously. The
disco sounds, be it space, italo, or even latin, are there. Don't
you think? And i'm not talking as a casual disco listener.

To be fair to Lindstrom he rejects the space disco tag and feels
it's a media buzz, the whole Norwegian cosmic disco 'sound' - only
space disco homage he ever did he claims is I Feel Space.

Have you guys had the chance to hear John Arnold's and Jeremy
Ellis's "Nightlife" that was played on Gilles Peterson for the
last two weeks. This is a re-cut of the disco classic Night Life
put our by Blair, one of the original members of the Blakbyrds.
Not "space" disco, but it comes close. Good stuff...
Quoting Kowalsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I posted here a mix a recorded, recently, with a lot of space
disco and
italo disco tunes. I love space disco originals, and was
suposed to
like Lindstrom's tracks. But they sound kinda generic in the end.
Honestly? I prefer some of the Cloud releases or even some
Italians Do
It Better releases.

What do the Detroit fans here say on the cosmic sounds coming
from Norway? I'm excited to hear Lindstrom's forthcoming
album. Another Station is my favourite song of his - sublime -
though everyone rates I Feel Space. Todd Terje too is up and
coming and interesting. That crew is quietly eccentric (Todd
is into pop like Madonna's La Isla Bonita) but they're making
some lovely melodic electronic music that I could imagine
appealing to fans of the more melodic side of techno (Mayday,
Martian, Inner City etc).
