Paper Recordings are cutting deep with this one as it just goes to show that if you're locked up in Norway fed on a diet of Todd Terje, Lindrøm and all things Prins Thomas and Full Plupp before the party season starts you get 4 tracks on an EP, 'Et Helvete's Rabalder; which roughly translates as, "Party On"!


Well, that's not strickly true as a translation but if you took a bit of Lakeshouse's disco, (check out their album that came out earlier this year, 'On Verda Mi' see review HERE) and put up some fuzzed out samples in an early Razor-N-Tape style, you've got some New Yor(kt)hern Light disco winner that Ian D would be proud of (Ed. the former pupil of the Essex School of Art, Walthamstow campus) with 'Tylen Fra Sande'.  

Not only that, there's a remix by Storken (Sweden) that's a bit more gitch/bass/percussion centric with less strings; but that's not to say it's 'raw' as there's the healthy 'keep warm' vocal to keep it as a dancefloor winner like the orginal.  And wait for them synths to wobble.

And that's not all, of the other track, MAde and Keppekoff have caught some more zeitgeist with Grace Jones being the office 'album of the week' a couple of weeks' back, Kruder & Dorfmeister's K & D Sessions being referenced more as influences and echoes of Erykah that's filtered into 'Spillopper I By'n'.  Whilst on the remix, Keppekoff fires up all the synths to fly out to the Norweigen space lab to have a disco in the stars.
 
I hope this is coming out on vinyl in time for the annual Essex exodus summer party that's held in Dorset but we'll have to enjoy the downloads for the time being - stay tuned, this is great!
