Prins Thomas | Prince Of Norway

I had the pleasure of spending some time with royalty last week on my travels through the North Pole region. If you don’t already know, Thomas has a new record out, self titled, and its incredible. I now have it on wax ( for my son’s growing collection ) but i also downloaded it on the tour bus while i crossed the German border onto Belgium. The soldier-less forest was a perfect window setting for the epic journey. I couldn’t help but think, while i was listening to this record, that it will be one of ” those ” records dug up by kids in the future around the same time they discover cult bands like Neu. It chugs away into the centre of your mind only to release beautiful chordal movements and fringe delay pieces that join the tracks together. Its so important i feel. A record made for the right reasons, ultimately by the sounds of it, for him and his family. In a time when disco is quite homogenised it’s so refreshing to hear a founder of the cosmic movement reveal what its really all about….. “good ideas”. No frills all thrills do your self a flavour.
