It's Album Time
It's Album Time is, as advertised, disco producer Todd Terje's first full-length album, and its title sets the tone: casual, confident, and unburdened by the imagined need for significance that scares so many good dance producers into losing their cool when given a bigger platform. Terje is a careful artist that's fluent in history, an expert with texture, and possessing a grasp on composition more akin to a 1960s film composer than a contemporary dance producer.

It’s Album Time slowly builds an argument that there’s genuine talent behind the sheen of novelty, only to have Terje zigzag in the other direction.
