New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ HFN) - Globetrotting Danish DJ/producer Anders Trentem?ller presents his first-ever mix CD honoring Denmark's rich musical lineage, highlighting some of the greatest moments from his home country's most beloved talents, and also including many more international artists as well. Every once in a while, you might stumble upon a piece of music that speaks to you on such a high level, that it communicates with the very essence of the human self. Where throw-away pop music can be a time-filler, and often a time-killer, music with real integrity, depth and soul is the kind of thing we actually make time for. In that spirit, some of the Danish maverick's favorite songs are here, for those special, intimate moments that exist purely between sound and listener, with no interruptions.
Taking inspiration from the transient, constant activity of Copenhagen's harbour, this mix also sees the heralded producer creating his own special edits along the journey. Launched along with a brand new label platform, HFN, Harbour Boat Trips 01: Copenhagen is full of magical melodies, inspiring lyrics, haunting musical sequences and openly honest emotions from four decades of music history. This collection ranges from wonderful singer-songwriter visions such as Emiliana Torrini's serene "Lifesaver," to swathing synth-scapes like Suicide's "Cheree," to low-slung electronic escapades such as Musclehead's freaky "Phosphorescence." There's a wealth of fantastic music on offer, not to mention some inspiring combinations of unlikely tracks and rare out-takes. The finale, a subtle mix between Copenhagen Collective and Soft Cell, really needs to be heard to be believed. Harbour Boat Trips 01 is a refreshingly unorthodox metropolitan meltdown of post-rock, neo-alternative and electronic bliss. Other artists include: Grouper, Gravenhurst, I Got You On Tape, Beach House, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Raveonettes, Nic Endo, The (Hypothetical) Prophets, David Garcet, Rennie Foster, Caribou, Four Tet, A Place To Bury Strangers, and Two Lone Swordsmen.
