Telle

Wall Of Sound leave bigbeat behind (we’ll miss you) and jump on the cred-ship with some nifty licensing action. Telle are the Norwegian label that brought you the Kings Of Convenience and Annie’s wondrous ‘Greatest Hit’, unsurprisingly included here, along with the hitherto unheard of (to most) talents of DJ and producer Erot and company.

And, ladies and gents, it seems that the current sound of young, cold Norway is somehow, erm, disco-pop. Not yer Daft Punk disco-pop mind, but an altogether cooler take. If it were human it would probably have an ironic mullet and wear expensive Japanese jeans. But I digress. While ‘Greatest Hit’ is the hook that’ll attract most young trendies, there’s a fine selection of discoball ditties on offer here. While Bjorn Torske’s ‘Disco Members’, Erot vs Kings Of Convenience’s ‘Gold For The Price Of Silver’ and Royksopp’s ‘So Easy’ stand-out, the rest are equally as lounge-cool. Soon to be appearing on over-priced coffee tables eveywhere.
