Lindstrom

A cold northern guy writing disco music, it already sounds strange, and that is the best definition of the music created by Hans-Peter Lindstrøm. This Norwegian producer uses the name Lindstrom as his stage name for his completely unusual dance music. It is more of a cold Scandinavian soundscape with a space twist and still some parts of the good old 70th afrobeat music. Hard to describe but if you manage to lay hands on his “I’ts A Feedelity Affair” best of collection, you will understand how cold dance music can be. It is a dancing robot party, it is a cold deep space voyage, is it even better live, because Lindstrom is more interested in experimenting, that just playing his hits.

The Title

The Title is a new name with new sound. It is called power pop but actually I can’t really define it. It is similar to some songs of Panic At The Disco, The Postal Service with melodies reminiscent of Cure or some newer bands like Blink-182 or Fall Out Boy; and yeah with a twist of 8bit music. Completely electronic sound with melodic vocals, small 8bit parts and dance parts if it is called power pop, okay I agree.

The Title

Their album Making A Scene released this year is starting with small electronic intro and then flows into the first song Fading, with great lyrics and pop emo styled vocals. The singer sometimes uses some effects to make the vocals more distorted (similar to some Postal Service songs), it really helps sometimes when the lyrics are a bit boring. Generally this album is filled with hits, nice dance parts, catchy choruses, incredible melodies, fine lyrics and great positive vibe. Really a great album made by five kids from the US, and by the way it is completely independent, no major labels, so it totally rocks.

Burial is definitely the next step of music evolution, labeled dubstep, his latest work Untrue has not much in common with this genre. It is poetry, it is life, it is imagination, it’s really hard to describe. The whole mood of the record is like Japanese ambient cyberpunk, with dusk megacity soundscapes, samurai training and biotechnology.

8bitpeoples.com is a website is one of the best representatives of modern independent music and RushJet1 is one of the best representatives of this site. This label is focusing on 8 bit and chiptune music, (music composed and played on old sound cards, for those who don’t know) naturally it is not very popular due to unusual sound. But for people like me who had an original gameboy, nes or an amiga this music is very touching.

Younnat

Younnat is a solo project of the keyboardist from a local lounge band Luk. If you listen to Luk you’ll definitely hear some retro space influence. That actually comes from this guy.

In his first solo album he presented a fine cocktail of analog electronics, 8 bit and different non musical sounds. Matrix printers, real life electronic sounds are also a part of his sound archive. He mixes it a bit avant way but it is still listenable and you can definitely hear some old-school styled influences in his music.

Another thing is his live shows. That’s a WOW! A toy steering wheel that is reprogrammed and used as a DJ mixer. A joystick used in retro gaming themes based on old C64 sounds. Matrix printer with live keyboards, life of a house simulated with home electronics sounds. And finally a feature song with live girl singing opera vocals and sampling with a playstation joystick. I bet in few years he will be a number one guest on different GameCons. But now the world only has his debut album Ryba, which is also a great release on modern electronics scene.
