Scandinavian disco house is one of the high points of early 21st century popular culture I reckon. DJs and producers like Lindstrom, Prins Thomas and Todd Terje make and play expansive, forward looking and open minded electronic dance music that doesn't take itself too seriously. Really Deep Snow came out back in August, a nine minute cosmic disco journey from Lindstrom, and part of a four track album called On A Clear Day I Can See You Forever (out in October). Built around a drum machine and a bubbling synth line Really Deep Snow ploughs its way onward, gathering momentum, a drive on a dirt track through the trees, deeper into the forest. A fairly fast paced slow burner, if that makes sense.

I played the 2005 'Lindstrøm & Prins Thomas' CD in the car a few weeks back. I bought it at the time and it's the only thing I've ever owned by either artist, but I really should delve deeper.
This is very good, cheers SA.
By the minute mark I was fully invested in the journey this track was taking me on. I was like being on a bullet train while outside all manor of electronic music was filling the air in the fields and forests.
