D. Lissvik - 7 Trx + Intermission
Dan Lissvik, half of Studio, has formed a solo project named D. Lissvik and has recently released an album called 7 Trx + Intermission. He retains Studio’s gentle disco sound but his tracks shimmer in a subdued psychedelic exotica, much like the video they made for track 5 of his release entitled “B1.”
http://www.vimeo.com/2240401Clocking at a little under 44 minutes, not all of the tracks are as long as you might expect from Studio’s normal 7 minute or longer track duration. However, riffs on the shorter tracks feel just as at home as the instrumental solos do on the longer ones. As a whole, the album flows effortlessly and 44 minutes seems brief, tempting repetition.
7 Trx + Intermission is available in CD, vinyl, and digital (320 kbps) form from the Information Records store. If you visit the store, make sure to check out their posters too. The one accompanying this release is pleasingly geometric.
