I’ve been a big fan of the Norwegian electro-pop group Casiokids since I caught them live during one of the warm-up days at the 2008 Roskilde Festival in Denmark. Half art show, half dance party, this Bergen-based band certainly knows how to have a great time while on stage. After catching all of their thirty minute set, I said at the time that “the only direction I see them moving is up” — and boy was I right!
After signing to the famed Polyvinyl label a little over a year ago, the band is slated to release their first LP stateside, entitled Topp Stemning På Lokal Bar, and with it comes this potential B-side Stereogum-premiered Prins Thomas remix of their hit “En Vill Hest”. Also for your listening pleasure, I threw in an old Casiokids remix of Lindstrøm’s “The Long Way Home”. Check them both out below:
Casiokids // En Vill Hest (Prins Thomas remix)
