SPIRAL / Q

Tracklist: A. Spiral B. Q Four is the magic number: Todd Terje's next 12› super sound single on Olsen Records finds him going back to his roots with two extended and sparkling synthesizer adventures for club use. šSpiral› and šQ› are preceding the mastermind's up-and-coming debut album (where none of the tracks appear) and are the elaborated results from a commissioned concert for Bergen's 2012 Ekko Festival. The title track is exactly that type of percussive-driven crescendo cut that would have had discerning discos of yesterday hitting their roofs  luckily, the dance floors of today are none the wiser while spiralling into bliss. šQ› on the other side is a twelve minute long trance-not-trance epic that makes use of cowbells, fosters distortion as a stylistic device and features a prominent melody that won't leave your brain too so on and makes it impossible to hit the stop button. Housed in tremendous and theme-fitting sleeves conceived by Oslo's top illustrator Bendik Kaltenborn.
