Über die letzten jahre gelang es den the fresh & onlys sich in die herzen einer immer grösser werdenden schar von fans zu spielen. die fresh & onlys sind so eine richtige lieblingsband. es gibt eigentlich niemanden, der dem charme des sängers tim cohen und seiner mannen nicht verfällt. früher oder später kriegen sie sie alle. das who is who der amerikanischen underground labels (woodsist, in the red und captured track) rissen sich darum ihre platten zu veröffentlichen, auf dem all tomorrows parties festival sind sie sowas wie ein stammgast, und bands wie black lips und deerhunter haben ihre lieblingsband mit auf tour genommen. diesen herbst folgt ihr inzwischen viertes album, das endlich auch in europa erscheint, auf souterrain transmissions, der heimat von crocodiles, moon duo, zola jesus und coco rosie. >long slow dance< (oder auch l.s.d.) heisst das album. abermals geht es sehr romantisch zu und hittig, man fühlt sich an go-betweens erinnert und frühe (gute!) r.e.m., aber alles glücklicherweise nicht glatt sondern schrullig. es fällt da nicht leicht ein anderes label ausser pop im besten sinne zu verwenden!

wrong is quentin dupieux’s new movie, the director most known under his musical alias, mr oizo. during summer 2011, while he was wrapping the movie, he started as usual to compose its score.

spring toy is an elegant a-side crafted with classic house influences in mind. meandering casually before beginning its ascent into deepspace territory, detroit styled synth lines and intricate melodies hang above a funky undertone which hooks from the off. continuing its cosmic trajectory, the ep’s b-sides set their coordinates into dub techno regions. lindberg’s quirky astral synths and futuristic soundscape trigger a dream-like state…think sci-fi beams and interplanetary navigation and you’re half way there. shudder is a more up-tempo sonic excursion, propelled by its galloping techno rhythms. the ebb and flow of trippy pads and crystalline waves play to the senses.
