with the latest album from dance producer hans-peter lindstrøm, norways latest entry in the space race has been launched out of the wooded outskirts of oslo. six cups of rebel, lindstrøms fourth solo album, is a super-sized cosmic disco rocket that burns up a galaxy of eclectic influences in its wake, from bach to deep purple, from prog rock and arpeggiator disco to acid house, while sounding sleek and utterly contemporary. he may worship at the temple of godlike european djs from the 80s like daniele baldelli and beppe loda, but the relentless, occasionally monumental scale of six cups of rebel has the power to move mountains all by itself.

you might not be aware of this artist or lp… but thats all about to change. this is the holy grail of cosmic disco… that disco kids dont even know yet. released in 1978 on little known inter global records, this lp is one of the most in demand, expensive & undiscovered albums of this genre. just check discogs! not much is known about the group, where their from or what they went on to do, but that doesnt stop every track on this album being a bonafide killer. arguably the albums highlight is jamaica electric, but unlike most cosmic disco lps where there is just one main track, every outing on this lp is unique and of the highest quality. cosmic, mind bending disco at its finest… sounding so fresh it couldve been made by prins thomas or lindstrom this year.
