The Last Resort is the debut album of Danish electronic maestro Trentemoller. Full of atmosphere and and smart dubs, this 13-track record is without doubt a moody soundtrack that ticks a lot of boxes. Trentemoller is a multi-talented musician, programmer and producer and his gifted understanding of what makes a dancefloor tick is reflected in his remixes and single releases.
Like most albums in this genre, they sound great in wine bars and chill-out rooms, but The Last Resort is worth a lot more than that. It has depth and it wouldn’t be too far-fetched to say that it takes you on a journey. It’s a well-produced album with lots of appealing sounds and beats, that still sound fresh today.
Stand-out tracks include Evil Dub, Chameleon and Into the Trees (Serenetti Part 3), but that’s just a matter of opinion, and we’re sure you will have yours…
Score: 9/10
