Holiday for Strings new album Favorite Flavor out now on gatefold Lp and Cd. The band celebrates by releasing a brand new video for the single Two of You, as well as giving away a Remix pack!

Holiday for Strings is a collaboration between John from Peter, Bjorn and John, as well as producer Pony from Thieves Like Us, and together with 3 former chefs they make dreamy, spacious, experimental pop.

Favorite Flavor is a 47 minute magic carpet ride, sometimes dynamic and lush, sometimes sparse and funky. The album is out now on Sea You Records.

Two of You (direct link) – is the fast punky single off the album, now reworked with an even harder punch and a “walk on the wild side”-break in the middle, complete with monkey drums.

Unwilling/Not able (direct link) – in a rough, lo-fi boogie funk interpretation, nice tape hiss on there too!

Calling Out of Context (direct link) – Arthur Russell’s original is covered on the album, but is here reworked into a 70′s New York smelling, Studio-inspired, ethnic, disco track.

American/Swedish trio Thieves Like Us met in Berlin, discovered a mutual interest in Hot Chip meets New Order type electropop, released the single “Drugs In My Body” on Kitsuné and then toured all over the world. Tonight, they’ll be at Babel here in Malmö for the second edition of the Tricks/Tricks/Tricks club night. This remix of the Miss Kittin track “Party In My Head” will give you an idea of what to expect.

The Sweden/US trio Thieves Like Us released their new EP “Really Like To See You Again” on Shelflife Records yesterday and we are lucky enough to be able to offer you the title track from that EP.

“Another Thieves Like Us ballad written about that non-existant other half — she’s out there somewhere in the world — this is how it would feel to rendezvous for a romantic trip to Coney Island. Both Robert Smith and Peter Hook were unavailable to play that twangy romantic guitar, so we did it ourselves. Sounds authentic too.”
