the elevators aren't running

“Lost”, much like its predecessor “Into the Great Wide Yonder” (2010), serves not only as a logical continuation of his work, but also as yet another fuck-you to whatever genre you thought you had him boxed into. The Trentemøller sound is definitely left intact, yet as a whole it really doesn’t sound like anything he’s ever produced before. Few artists seem to possess that special talent of leaving the audience just as baffled as they are satisfied, but hey, that’s what’s great about Anders. He may alienate a few heads along the way, but it wouldn’t be interesting for him if he didn’t.

“People wanted something similar to the last album, but if you’re getting to the point of listening to people and what they think of your sound...Well, that's not for me.”  -Trentemøller

“Lost” boasts a dozen tracks with something of interest for anyone who’s ever been a fan of the Copenhagen based producer. You can’t really compare it to “The Last Resort”, but the club elements are there. It definitely isn’t “Into the Great Wide Yonder” either, even if it’s equally guitar driven. It’s as original as it is classic, mixing the tried and tested with all sorts of sonic surprises. And making it look easy in the process.

Differing from “Into The Great Wide Yonder”, which was a rather bold cinematic landscape, “Lost” is definitely a far more streamlined affair and way more “song structured”. It’s the kind of record one can only produce after endless months of studio isolation. Just where his creativity flourishes best.

That said Trentemøller has also found a new home – and it’s on stage with a band. “Lost” relays this epiphany in pitch perfect circumstances, finally merging the extrovert and introvert qualities the man has in his command.

Of course, none of his productions would be complete without those unique guest appearances, spanning a multitude of musical categories. They’re all given equal treatment when they’re dropped bang center into the middle of Trentemøller's very own musical universe, having to harness the potential of their talent on Trentemøller’s terms. It certainly isn’t that many folks who are capable of convincing Jonny Pierce (The Drums) or Sune Wagner (The Raveonettes) to appear on a club track and even fewer who are able to pull it off. Anders is in the top percentile of that lot. 

”I think it’s fun to take people out of their own musical comfort zone” he exclaimed to VICE earlier in the year when explaining his seemingly erratic choices. ”Actually, when I begun writing the songs, I had their voices in my mind all along. They just didn’t know it.”

Aside from Sune and Jonny, Trentemøller has managed to bring on board a whole rake of fantastic peers, personal influences and sprouting talent. Co-conspirators such as Kazu Makino (Blonde Redhead), Jana Hunter (Lower Dens), Marie Fisker, Ghost Society and none other than the legendary slow-core pioneers Low are all to be found on the record.

That trademark haunting feeling that defined both ”The Last Resort” and ”Into the Great Wide Yonder” hasn’t been neglected on “Lost”. It’s just been redefined and made way more ferocious, the signature glitchy bass being replaced by sub woofer frequencies far more pounding. Almost punk rock. Instantly conjuring up thoughts of the more droning SUICIDE tracks or even contemporaries like The Soft Moon.

”Lost” documents an artist really hitting his stride. An intricate musical tapestry woven over countless sleepless nights in his Copenhagen studio. Nights invested in instrument experimentation and trashed analog consoles.

You can without a shadow of doubt call this release a genuine study in the art of attention to detail. No matter how many times you press play on this one you’re going to find something you missed the previous time around. Something that suddenly shines a whole new light on what you’re listening to.

‘Gravity’ is the third single taken from the new third studio album ‘Lost’ by Trentemøller. With the drum setting inspired by early Krautrock this wonderful and mulitlayered song still breathes the Trentemøller signature. The vocals have been contributed by Jana Hunter, singer of Baltimore based band ‘Lower Dens’ and melt perfectly with ‘Gravity’.

On the B-side we’ll find a remix by Copenhagen & Berlin based band Pinkunoizu who are currently stirring a buzz with their new album ‘The Drop’. Their version puts the song in a new light with re-arranged drums and a hypnotic build.

Lyrics
 
Kids and their Chemicals
Lyrics by Louis McDonald
 
Verse 1
You can't relate, you've lost your mind
 
Growing old with bloodshot eyes

Each time we grow slower, each time we grow small
 
Each time we'll insist we feel nothing at all


Chorus
And we're too young to take them down
 
And we're just kids in a chemical crowd


Verse 2
We'll take the stage and take a bow
 
We'll sing a song, but we don't know what it's all about
 
We'll play guitar, but we don't know how
 
But we'll take our chances, just for now
 


Chorus
We're too young to take them down
 
Cos' we're just kids in a chemical crowd
 
We're too young to take them down
 
Cos' we're just kids in a chemical crowd


Guitar Bridge


Chorus
We're too young to take them down
 
Cos' we're just kids in a chemical crowd
 
We're too young to take them down
 
Cos' we're just kids in a chemical crowd


Outro
We are too young to take them down
 
We are just kids in a chemical crowd
 
We're too young to take them down
 
Cos' we're just some kids in a chemical crowd

Second online track from the upcoming Living Eyes LP which will be out April 1st 2013 on Anti Fade. CD out through Z-Man records.

Geelong’s Living Eyes have been getting around Australia for a couple of years now, forming in mid 2010. After making it into the finals of JJJ’s unearthed high competition in late ’10 with debut track “Livin’”, they were soon to release a 7” EP on Spain’s “Saturno Recordings” in 2011. After gigging solidly for a year alongside bands such as the UV Race, Total Control, the Hoodoo Gurus and Straight Arrows, the band followed up “Livin’” with new single “Ways To Make A Living” in mid 2012, which received lots of airplay and great reviews throughout Australia and America. In late 2012 the band were selected as part of Australian tribute compilation, “Nuggets: Antipodean Interpolations Of The First Psychedelic Era” alongside a heap of other great Australian acts. 
Since then they’ve spent a solid couple of days recording their self-titled debut LP with Mikey Young. The album will be released on LP through Australian independent label “Anti Fade” and CD through Melbourne’s “Z-Man Records”. Both will be hitting the shelves throughout Australia, America and Europe April 1st 2013.
