Part one of a two-part album (second part is Prins Thomas 9, PMT 009LP). "At the start of 2021 I realized I hadn't paid much attention to my own productions lately, rather spending time doing remixes or mixdowns for others or like many others, worrying over what the future will bring. I started going through tracks and ideas I had started on but not completed and now as another annus horribilis nears the end I have two albums ready for release, entitled 8 and 9. Although I promised myself to never say it, I personally think they're my best work so far and I hope someone else will get the feeling of 'a light at the end of the tunnel' when listening to these tracks just like I feel when listening back to them. There are contributions from the very capable hands of Bugge Wesseltoft (on 8) and John Carroll Kirby (on both 8 and 9), besides that it's just me." --Prins Thomas, December 2021

The second single from Prins Thomas's brand new album -- Prins Thomas 5 (PTM 001CD/LP) -- comes with a remixes and bonus beats by The Pilotwings. Thomas on "Lunga Strada": "The track that took me the longest to complete hence the 'long road'. Personal favorites The Pilotwings from Lyon sent over two ridiculously good and fun remixes which will be released on this separate 10-inch."

The first single off of Prins Thomas's forthcoming Prins Thomas 5. This first single on the new label gets unveiled with "Å" remix by Pional. Plus there's an extended 12" version by Thomas. Thomas on "Å": "Initially the final track and then: scrapped idea for the alphabet soup of Principe del Norte (2016). Later evolved into what we have here. Comes with a really nice remix by Pional on a separate 12" here!"

Double LP version. Hi-quality art with gold print; Black polylined inner sleeves. After the slightly more conceptual Principe Del Norte album (2016), Prins Thomas's 5 takes two steps forward and one step back, collecting a batch of tracks that were recorded right after Principe Del Norte and in tandem with the Square One album with Bjørn Torske (2017). A "freedom" album of sorts, beyond the slightly misleading album opener "Here Comes The Band", there's a variety in these tracks tracing inspiration from a 35-year (unhealthy) obsession with all things "good music" played enthusiastically. 5 also marks the launch of Prins Thomas's new label, Prins Thomas Musikk. "Here Comes The Band" is very loosely inspired by Bandwagonesque-era Teenage Fanclub (1991). Melodic ideas were hummed into a handheld recorder and specific notes about instrumentation were scribbled down while on holiday in Villajoyosa in Spain and it turned into the little ditty "Villajoyosa". Thomas made "Bronchi Beat" in bed during a rough patch of bronchitis. Heavily influenced by prescription cough medicine. "Αθήνα" is partly inspired by a detour into the soundtrack of Prins Thomas's early teens (Paul Hardcastle, Warp 9, Maze, Mtume). "Æ" is another bronchitis-ridden idea. Slow and low is the tempo with a beat originally inspired by Brian Briggs's "AEO" and melodies beamed in from Wally Badarou. "Æ" is the Norwegian pronounciation of the "A" in acid referring to the 303 screeches. "Ø" gives you the impression Prins might be running out of ideas for track titles. "Lunga Strada" took Prins the longest to complete hence the "long road". "London Til Lisboa" was another idea from a trip on a plane with direction steered by Plaid and Pat Metheny. "Å" was initially the final track and then: Prins scrapped idea for the alphabet soup of Principe Del Norte. The track later evolved into what is here. "Venter på Torske" is the final recorded addition to the album. It was made while Prins was waiting for Bjørn Torske to reply on a text message... "Aske Hermansen" is probably as soppy as it gets with me. Prins made this on the road missing his wife and kids, literally putting tears into his computer keyboard.
