brand new 2019 album by legendary laid back from denmark marking the bands 40th anniversary. follow up to the highly acclaimed uptimistic music (2013) their new abum masterly blends john guldbergs and tim stahls signature styles, the healing feeling of, reggae, electronic, folk and soothing balearic pop as retro and modern as it was. laid back are back like a best friend that has never gone out, always been closely about.

danish duo laid back - famous for their irresistible 80s anthems white horse, bakerman and sunshine reggae - return with a double header of quality cuts both aimed squarely at the dance floor.

2x12inch lp gatefold, blue vinyl (a), white vinyl (b), printed inner sleeve,! the duos long-awaited comeback was followed by critical acclaim and a series of live performances. while playing festivals in ibiza, georgia, denmark and the faroe islands last summer, john guldberg and tim stahl took the time to put the finishing touches on their upcoming release: uptimistic music, a double album featuring vol.1 and a second record of unreleased material.

the copenhagen based producer and dj, is back with an exceptional remix package on hfn music. having dropped the stunning fool album earlier this year, we are now treated to several stellar remixes of one of the standout tracks, the third official single >bohemian soul<.

these tracks were recorded when the term chill-out music was coming into being. our record company back then thought the music too different from our well-known style, but we found it perfect for relaxing and painting.

for a short period in 1981 and with brand-new equipment such as roland 808, sh 101, gr 500, we made some 8-track just for fun jam tapes. mainly just to experiment for our own pleasure. from those sessions, only white horse made it to a final treatment. the rest of the material was left behind, as our record company at the time found it too different. after white horse being a track indeed defining our sound, we thought it would be interesting to dig out left-overs to fulfill a documentation of that period - crucial for us at the time. we were still innocent newcomers, without actually knowing to be creating a new sound! recently, that left-over material was transferred from analogue to digital and, to stay as true as possible to original intentions, we only added vocals, bass and drumbeats ahead of a final mix. we hope that you will enjoy listening to it. good vibes from laid back copenhagen 2012.

gethigh 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, in a more universal way. we all want to get high whatever we do in life, in all walks of life, in spirits, sports, politics, showbusiness, all kind of business, in school and education and not to forget love. musically the groove is kept in the recognizable family of the horse, with an updated twist. actually the song was born in key of major, as a more rock guitar riff kinda song included in the package. also included is an ultra minimalistic version, mainly made on ipad. danish electronic musician and dj kasper bjørke has done a really cool remix. finally we made a space mix, mainly for our own pleasure and for those who like to get out there and more into it. a video is in the final editing stage, following the style of beautiful day and cocaine cool, with self made animation. music is more than a trendy sound and a fancy look. laid back is always going for something personal, original and timeless. copenhagen, september 2011.

danish duo laid back made a most 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 the thirty years after its release 30 years back and a constant inspiration to boatload of diverse artists from techno to hip-hop. >cocaine cool< was recorded at the same session but the ironic vocals ridiculing label executives blowing up their frail ego with the chemical substance were deemed to risquee at that time, so the recording collected dust in some box until last year. bostons >soul clap< another duo hailed as one of the hotest things in clubland known for their eclectic funk-rooted taste. they opt for a cool sparser arrangement leaving out the “white horse -like chords. a loose, dry electro funk beat, hpynotic one-note synth, few dub effects and additional vocoder vocals do the trick bravorously. besides an instrumental version theres also a harder jacking dub take sounding like early chicago house edits. and while the boys are add it they also re-edited another huge one from laid back: >baker man< that managed the unlikely balancing act of not only hitting it bigtime in the charts but also in the emerging balearic scene. this 12 inch is cool in every which way!

the sensational comeback and follow up to >white horse<. recorded in the same session, remastered by the band to full glory and released worldwide exclusively in a cooperation by laid back and yours truly
