Labrador
Labrador
瑞典清新樂第一大廠Labrador建立於1998年，並由一位行政人員Bengt Rahm發起。而Acid House King的一曲也包括在內，與此同時，Club 8的主將Johan Angergard也脫離了Siesta。而佔盡天時地利，位於瑞典音樂重鎮Stockholm市的Labrador當時是他們的首選。因此Club8的第二張專輯便在此發行。可算是Labrador的轉折點，因Johan這位重臣以他在這個圈子的經驗，獨具慧眼為 Labrador找來了不少新名字如WaltzForDebbie、Leslies、LasseLindh等新血的加入，為Labrador增添不少新聲音。
有一個小插曲不得不知，上文提過Club 8主將Johan在Labrador發行第二張專輯後半部便和弟弟Niklas(即Acid House King另一成員)合組了一間錄音室名為Summersound Studio，也就是日後為Edson，Aerospace，Chasing Dorolea和Corduroy Utd等名字發行的Summersound Recordings。不過Summersound Recordings在發行過剛好十張唱片后，便在2002年8月正式過檔為Labrador旗下，而所有組合也一起跟隨。其實，此事的發生一切也很順理成章，因始終兩間公司的運作根本也是在同一群志同道合的人手上。因此Labrador現在便是一所擁有17個音樂單位的廠牌，而Summersound便會做回它錄音室的身份。
你要認識Labrador的聲音，當然首推他們的老大哥Club 8，Acid House King和Startlet。貴為知性派瑞典之音的Club 8，年輕十足的AHK和擅長撰寫失意情歌的Starlet為Labrador奠下了了形象清新的Swedish-Pop之音。當然新貴Edson和 Aerospace為Labrador泛起的漣漪仍令人無法忘懷。至於後起之秀Chasing Doratea帶來的是一張媲美Kings Of Convenience的沉默與清爽的專輯。還有還有玩奏夢幻電子音樂的Douglas Heart便擁有一把甜美的女聲助陣。另外還有極具個人風格的Lasse Lindh，帶來的是充滿電影感的英倫吉他搖滾。單看以上陣容，已窺探出Labrador在Twee-Pop以外，還極力發掘新聲音。當中還吸納了屬於異軍的Mondial，便是一隊玩奏Acid Jazz加點點Funky節奏的跳舞組合。當然，有如瑞典Saint Etienne的Waltz For Debbie，更為Labrador加入充滿氣息的跳脫生氣。再看最新所帶來的幾個新名字，確能令我們更了解Labrador。好象由早期已加入Labrador的Lasse Lindh組成的新樂隊Tribeca，他們絕對是Labrador在Twee-Pop之外的另一選擇。這隊充滿瑞典搖滾味的組合，就象是The Wannadies的重生，充滿生氣與聲浪的吉他為我們帶來Kate-97這專輯。至於另一新貴Ronderlin則為我們帶來一張Perfect- Pop專輯Wave Another Day Goodbye，六個大男孩所演奏出的確是一些長青的流行調子。而倍受矚目的當然是Aerospace主將Kristian Rosengren的個人組合Airliner。這位瑞典詩人在Club 8的Johan監製下，帶來是一張失落的專輯The Last Day Of August，Kristian那害羞的聲音配合這些失意的調子，絕對會為各位Edson迷送上另一感人故事。還有即將推出專輯的Douglas Heart，象極了Belle & Sebastian的Laurel Music和The Radio Dept。便會源源不絕為Labrador帶來無限生氣。而現在的Labrador正處於它的全盛時期。

簡介：
瑞典清新樂第一大廠Labrador第100張專輯。共分四碟，收錄廠牌此前發行唱片中歌曲各一首。這張專輯同時也是Labrador十周年紀念輯，旗下各個樂隊史上最精彩的歌曲皆包括在內，包括諸位耳熟能詳的Club8,Acid House Kings,Edson,Lurel Music,The Legends,Sambassadeur,Radio Dept等。
這張專輯代表了北歐流行音樂的最高水準，清新、自然、甜美、灑脫。我們認為真正的流行樂不是口水歌，不是N白金的銷量，不是俊男美女，不是排行榜的前十名。它坦誠而不做作，豁達而不自戀，Labrador的十周年見證了獨立音樂在世界範圍的流行與普及，這張專輯真正代表了Indie的特性：獨立，但絕不妥協。
