Prins Thomas - Prins Thomas 5 LP

Prins Thomas - Prins Thomas 5

Marking the milestone of his fifth solo studio album, Prins Thomas inaugurates his own label, Prins Thomas Musikk, with the release of "5"—a body of work he describes as a rhythmic dance of two steps forward and one step back. Moving on from the ambient explorations of Principe del Norte, the Norwegian maestro returns with an album forged between grueling tour schedules and moments of forced isolation, famously turning a bout of heavy bronchitis into creative fuel for tracks like "Bronchi Beat" and "Æ." The sonic palette of the record serves as an emotional map, stretching from the indie-inflected energy of Teenage Fanclub on "Here Comes The Band" and nostalgic, adolescent electro-funk memories on "Athens," to the raw, melancholic sincerity of "Aske Hermansen," composed amidst the deep longing for home. More than just a collection of tracks, "5" is a mosaic of lived experiences—from the simple act of waiting for a text from Bjørn Torske to grander cosmic journeys—all wrapped in the signature space-disco aesthetic that has solidified Thomas as one of the premier architects of the modern Scandinavian sound.
