"snooze 4 love" and it's not even the tiniest bit close

i think for me too but man what a run

i sort of think that until "inspector norse" and then everything after that is at best adequate

i only have seen him dj once but he tore shit up, was incredible, impossibly not to dance till 6am. i have this weird memory that it was in a shipping container? possibly i dreamed it

i think i've seen him once on the same bill as lindstrøm in a proper club, and then once in norway for that weird improv thing he did with lindstrøm and diskjokke which was pretty awesome

Snooze 4 Love should take this by some margin, despite his rather laudable consistency.

I listen to "Strandbar (Disko)" more than any of them. "Snooze" is predictably overrated.

(While still being pretty great, obv.)

voting "bonysh" for finally stretching out the intro to "heart of glass" into an entire track and as token gesture of 'still prefer his edits and remixes'

"Snooze 4 Love" then a bunch of the edits, yeah, then not bothered really

"snooze 4 love" and it's not even the tiniest bit close

Definitely "Balearic Incarnation (Todd Terje's Extra Doll Mix)", but of this lot, "Snooze".

Why no "Swing Star (Parts 1+2)" option :(

glittertind >>>>>>>>>>>>

'Inspector Norse' for me 'cause it can turn a room of people who've never heard anything else by Todd Terje into a room of euphoric grinning freak. 'Snooze' is awesome but feels way more retro to me.

I hate to bust out this boogeyman, but "Snooze" is "academic."

Killing For Love (Todd Terje Brokeback Mix) or the Superstition edit for me. Out of all these, Inspector Norse. Still can't figure out the hype behind Snooze 4 Love.

Balearic Incantation

I like all versions of this track tho prob the jean-luc ponty orig still shades it.

i like this dude he does some real cool things for sure but his rhythmic sensibility often feels a little bit borrowed idk

Looking forward to the results of this. Just eleven months to go.

How many straw men can I set up before then?

i lead a sheltered life, plz tell me who he borrows from so i can listen to them as much as i do todd terje

not being snarky, i am pig ignorant

my tops:
1) inspector norse
2) strandbar (samba)
3) strandbar (disko)
4) q
5) spiral
6) eurodans
7) snooze 4 love
8) ragysh

inspector norse
ragysh
glittertind

Voted for Revelee (Carl Craig Remix)

ragysh or his edit of superstition or snooze 4 love

Ragysh by far, must have only played Snooze 4 Love a few times. The edits and remixes have some highlights too, Chris Rea particularly.

This is really only down to Snooze 4 Love vs Inspector Norse for me

iTunes tells me I've played Snooze 4 Love 64 times and Inspector Norse 37 times.

I'm still tempted to vote for Inspector Norse for that moment at about 3:36 where everything... tilts and it all goes a bit ~COSMIC~ after the keychange... (trying to remember if Snooze 4 Love has an epic keychange? Nope. I'm a sucker for an epic keychange.)

I never understood the love 4 Snooze 4 Love. That keychange in Inspector Norse is essence of Todd Terje for me.

When I googled how to pronounce his name it turned out that he gets asked that in every single interview and surely always will.

not so much borrowed from like a certain guy more it feels a lil rote funky disco groove rather than something he owns in his heart

like the true funk the funk that comes from within is more idiosyncratic

Whoa just realized that "Revelee (A Carl Craig Remix)" is actually not by Todd Terje!!! Crazy

Voting Bonysh instead because it sounds like "Can't Stop Won't Stop"

The actual answer to this is his Dolle Jolle Balearic Incarnation remix, but in the absence of that then Snooze 4 Love.

Swing Star 2 duh

I'm with crüt

so, i listened to "lanzarote", last year's lindstrom collab, yesterday. and that. i want to change my vote to that. several times.

What an amazing run.

Write in vote for robbie williams Candy.

probably will have to go for snooze, though i have nearly equal amounts of love for ragysh

he does have an awful lot of underrated nudisco gems like "eurodans" and "swing star pt 2" (maybe even "q"), not to mention the goofy charm of "reinbagan" and the understated beauty in "glittertind", which are better than their inevitable lack of votes in this poll will suggest

Even I'm not sure if anything he does these days is "underrated."

voted ragysh

camiño del sol rmx > ragysh, though

Why does this poll close in February 2015?????

Even I'm not sure if anything he does these days is "underrated."

those were mostly older tracks that don't get mentioned much, save for "swing star" i guess - which still feels pretty underrated in comparison to inspector norse

Is there already a thread where It's Album Time is being discussed or shall we start one? Because I really dig it so far.

It's being discussed on the Snooze 4 Love thread.

Just under ten months to go!

I'm in the uncool Inspector Norse camp

I prefer weirdo-synthpop Terje to dance-floor poison Terje, so "Swing Star pt 1" all the way

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Worthy winner fuiud.

damn what happened to my guy todd terje? am i correct in seeing no releases in years? is he ok?

not sure but Lanzarote was robbed

dunno what's up with him but I remember he played out plenty in the uk last year

Still completely love Inspector Norse and that bit still does it for me

damn what happened to my guy todd terje? am i correct in seeing no releases in years? is he ok?

Since when? He released things in 2016 & 2017 and still DJing regularly as mentioned

i've never seen an artist fall so hard. everything leading up to the album was (masterpiece alert) ...and the album was just half-assed goofball shit. contrasted with inspector norse which was transcendentally goofy

yeah 2016/17 was a while ago. just seems his output ratcheted down considerably compared to those years prior. good to know he’s still getting out there on the reg though.

You didn't used to follow Aeroplane then? xp
