Stream Lindstrøm's Smalhans on Spin

"It's time for the world to rekindle their romance with Hans-Peter Lindstrøm. His SECOND record of the year, Smalhans, is out November 6th on Smalltown Supersound, and SPIN has the whole enchilada streaming on their website. Speaking of enchiladas, the new record is replete with nods to Norwegian foods (enchiladas are Norwegian, right?). From the single "Rà-àkõ-st" (raw vegetables) to album track "Va-fle-r" (waffles), the record is a tasting menu of some of the country's simpler, more traditional dishes. Listen to each morsel, as well as a killer recent remix by Slick Shoota."
