Bleep

On Obverse, his fifth studio LP, Anders Trentemøller removed the barrier of creating tracks that he could perform live and focussed instead on doing the most he could in a studio setup. The result is a set of detailed and ambitious electronic compositions that occasionally cross over into leftfield synth-pop. There is a wistful, half-remembered air to bubbling epics like ‘Cold Comfort’ which nods to Apparat and DJ Koze. Vocal contributions from Lina Tullgren, Lisbet Fritze and Jennylee (Warpaint) only add to Obverse’s dreamstate feel.
