Product Description

Album Description

Well known for his epic & ultra melodic disco, it might come as a surprise that this album only contains three long tracks, with the opening track being almost 29 minutes long! But when you listen to this album, you hear that it is still very much Lindstrom... just more Lindstrom-- bigger, longer, more epic & more melodic. Lindstrom says, I realized that working within 30 minutes instead of five minutes frames forced me to think very differently to what I was used to... when working on longer tracks, there's so much more time to develop different themes & to let them evolve.

4.0 out of 5 stars Space? Disco? Funk? Dance?, Sep 3 2008

By Alec "Alec" - Published on Amazon.com

Lindstrom's first LP resides somewhere in between all these adjectives and outside all of them. Norwegian born Lidstrom is mostly known for the sick single "I Feel Space" in 2005, creating much anticipation for this full length. The record doesn't disappoint, actually building on the craftsmanship of his earlier releases to be an intricate triumph.

A hypnotizing record, Where You Go I Go Too manages to tiptoe the line between of background and dance music while remaining an electronic record in its own. It's hard to classify it as either a headphones or a dance floor record because it never decides between them; it chooses both. At it's most ethereal moments, the record resembles Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror, at it's most expansive, a pounding symphonic trance mix. The shifting nature of the title track, house beats tinged with bells and and kraftwerk-esque keyboards disintegrating into a pile of loops, shows the work of an artist in control of his devices as opposed to an artist who lets the keyboard do the talking This is true of the subsequent tracks as well, all of which enjoy fleeting epic phrases that morph into dream-like ambiance.

At it's best, Lindstrom's self titled release can accomplish almost everything it needs to. It uplifts and sedates, expands sound and narrows it, repeats and destroys. But for all of it's grandeur, the simplicity becomes the flaw, making it impossible to be truly placid. But then again, that's the point. All of the cheesy synths and pulsing rhythms aren't supposed to taking you anywhere in particular, but they are taking you somewhere. The potential for it to be fantastic is there, and this is as close as this style of music is going to get... until the next one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful ambient disco-techno, Sep 28 2008

By Joel Kelso "(just this guy, you know)" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Where You Go I Go Too (Audio CD)

I liked this album a lot. It is just the sort of instrumental thing I listen to while working. The closest thing it reminded me of that I know is Tangerine Dream, but more beat-driven. Perhaps a little _too_ disco for my liking, but that's me being hypercritical. Disregard 4-star rating, I don't do stars.
