Precursors of the Scandinavian nu disco movement led by Todd Terje, the Norwegians Hans-Peter Lindstrøm and Thomas Moen Hermansen a.k.a. Prins Thomas shot to fame in 2005 with the album Lindstrøm & Prins. They developed their psychedelic side, notably with the amazing track Boney M Down, which showed their naive (in the best sense of the word) musical approach. Fifteen years later, the two Nordic electro masters have released their third collaboration: the aptly-named III. We find six hazy tracks, taking us from Martin 5000’s dreamy disco (where you feel like you can hear a band playing in the next room) through to the hypnotic finale of Birdstrike with a muted keyboard. The filter gives the super-contemplative Balearic house album a signature sound. Like an imaginary soundtrack to a sun setting over the North Sea’s Café del Mar. – Smaël Bouaici

Ambitions is Prins Thomas’ 6th album and his second solo album for Smalltown Supersound (plus two duo albums with Bjørn Torske and Bugge Wesseltoft). Ambitions (out April 5th) picks up from were he left off with Principe Del Norte. Still ambitious, but the tracks are shorter, more melodic and more concise. Prins Thomas also offers up his first vocal track, lead single “Feel A Love.” Or to be precise, it’s based around a sample of the track “Feel A Love” by one of the biggest pop-stars in Norway in the 70s and 80s, the late Alex (Naumik).
