Strictly speaking, this isn’t a real artist album, but a collection of the best bits from Lindstrom’s first nine EPs. While the Norwegian space disco king is well known in the underground, ‘Affair’ gives the mainstream audience their first chance to hear what all the fuss is about. The ubiquitous ‘I Feel Space’ is present, but Lindstrom isn’t just about Italo homages. He impesses with the freeform rock/funk leanings of ‘There’s A Drink In My Bedroom And I Need A Hot Lady’, while the tear-jerkingly beautiful slow-motion groove of ‘Arp She Said’ shines brighter than the aurora borealis.
