On A Clear Day I Can See You Forever - Lindstrom (Smalltown Supersound)


Title: On A Clear Day I Can See You Forever 
Artist: Lindstrom
Label: Smalltown Supersound
Cat Number: STS346
Genre: Disco/House

1: On A Clear Day I Can See You Forever 
2: Really Deep Snow
3: Swing Low Sweet LFO
4: As If No One Is Here

The title track is a ten minute plus impressionistic saunter down the fjords. This is a tenuous link to Lindstrom’s nationality, but a worthy one I think. Beatless and cavernous, it’s a composition to get lost in and sound like Debussy on crack. ‘Really Deep Snow’ is equally evocative, but more urgent and with that gliding across the steppes feel. Both of the other tunes have more in common with ‘On A Clear Day . . .’ than ‘Really Deep Snow’, embracing a deconstructed abstraction  which is both amorphous and enveloping.
