In questi giorni sono stato letteralmente rapito dall’ultimo lavoro di Trentemøller: Harbour Boat Trips 01: Copenhagen.
Potrei tentare di raccontare quant’è sopraffina la musica contenuta in questa compilation, ma sarebbe semplicemente inutile… certe cose vanno provate, a parole non rendono l’idea. Perciò, visto che non vi descrivo la bontà dell’album, preferisco elencare gli ingredienti che lo compongono ![]()
Sonorità elettroniche e minimali miscelate con un pizzico di rock danno vita a 78 minuti di pura goduria.
Questa la tracklist:
- Grouper - Heavy Water/I’d Rather Be Sleeping
- Gravenhurst – I Turn My Face To The Forest Floor
- Emiliana Torrini – Lifesaver
- I Got You On Tape – Somersault
- Beach House – Gila
- The Brian Jonestown Massacre – Anenome
- The Raveonettes – Aly, Walk With Me (Nic Endo Remix)
- The Hypothetical Prophets (Proroky) – Back To The Burner
- Suicide - Cheree
- Muscleheads – Phosphorescence
- David Garcet – Confidence (Ghetto Remix)
- Rennie Foster – Devil’s Water
- Caribou – Melody Day (Four Tet Remix Feat. Luke Lalonde Adem And One Little Plane)
- The Raveonettes – She’s Lost Control (Trentemøller Edit)
- A Place To Bury Strangers – I Know I’ll See You
- Suicide – Ghost Rider
- Khan – Fantômes
- Trentemøller – Vamp (Live Edit)
- Two Lone Swordsmen – Kamanda’s Response
- Copenhagen Collective – The Copenhagen Experience #1 (Trentemøller Edit)
- Soft Cell – Tainted Love
Ci tengo a precisare che questo non è un album per tutti, ma probabilmente è meglio così: un prodotto di nicchia per appassionati dal palato sofisticato.
Ed ora, concludo quest’articolo lasciandovi col messaggio con cui Trentemøller presenta il suo lavoro
Dear Listener,
within this compilation I have basically chosen some of the many songs I use in my own most intimate hours, coming down after gigs, cleaning my apartment, waiting for friends to arrive or simply daydreaming with my twenty-first century walkman through the city of Copenhagen.
In gracious respect I’ve tried to mix them together especially for you! ![]()
All the artists on this compliation which include names from nearly four decades have, to me, created drifferent aspects of beauty.
I THANK! them greatly for their contribution and you for listening.
What else can I say? It’s my first compliation and compilling it was such a pleasure.
Take care!
Anders Trentemøller
