Norsk Tripping 4 vinyl

Rune Lindbaek's Norse Tripping series of oddball re-edits has thus far delivered a trio of high-quality EPs packed to the rafters with tasty tweaks of unusual, eccentric cuts from the depth of the Norwegian producer's vast record collection. Predictably, volume four lives up to the impressively high quality of its predecessors. Over the course of six varied edits, Lindbaek variously offers up sleazy late-night Italo-disco ('Discoboulet'), space rock/cosmic disco fusion ('Gnesta'), new wave weirdness ('Haerverk'), extra-percussive drug-chug ('Fibre'), impossible-to-pigeonhole heaviness (the bizarre bit brilliant 'Grishin'), and clarinet-sporting Balearic brilliance ('Blodekjaerheia'). If you enjoy edits that dig deeper for inspiration, step this way!
