diskjokke - Staying In
Given that Nordic production whiz Joachim Dyrdahl has been studying advanced mathematics for the past few years, you'd be forgiven for assuming his output as an electronic musician might be a bit on the clinical side, perhaps flirting with a Raster Noton-style precision, but in fact, Diskjokke is at the most personable, enjoyable end of the current disco resurgence. Drydahl got his big break from fellow Scandinavian dancefloor impresario Prins Thomas, who put out a couple of 12"s via his Full Pupp label. Being a part of the Nowegian dance scene that gave birth to the likes of Lindstrom, Todd Terje and Rune Linbaek, you'd hardly expect the Diskjokke debut to have a title like Staying In, but despite being compatible for dacefloor detonation these pieces are curtailed versions of the tracks Drydahl would play out in a club environment, taking on a far more succinct, poppy structure, far more conducive to a leisurely playback in the comfort of your own home. What's more, the album never strays too far from an actual tune, with particular highlights like 'Flott Flyt' and 'Staying In' itself (which is quite reminiscent of Royksopp's 'Eple') placing a heavy emphasis on bloopy synth melodies.
