Karl Lindh – Bortom E4's Horrisont [LP]

"Smudgy existential electronics and pristine minimal jazz with a furtive, fugitive feel. It's a creepy, brown-carpeted, Cold War-ish mise-en-scene, painted with a wonderfully peculiar palette -- keyboards, double bass, vibraphone and rigid drum-machine tick-n-tock, a perfect marriage of fluency and stiffness, of all-pervading paranoia and carefully-portioned camp (Kraftwerk in The Red Room?). Romance too -- "Djurgardsgatans Ogonblick" and "Jag. Mitt Kaffee" could be considered some of the most beautiful, tear-jerking ambient ice-shifts of all time. A pulpy but curiously moving 2005 CD-R curio, produced by Karl Lukas Petersson, aka Luke Eargoggle, and originally released on Danny "Legowelt" Wolfers's Strange Life label. LP in full picture sleeve."
