The Hundred In The Hands (Jason Friedman. Eleanore Everdell) de Brooklin (NY)
Primer Ep de la parella americà de Electropop / indietrònica de Warp Records. Aquest primer Ep, són 6 temes, m’agrada més que el single anterior, estan molt be els 6 temes, amb un toc diferent cada un, amb el so de la guitarra i percussions molt presents, amb la peculiar veu de Eleanore. Esta molt bé. Molt Recomanable!!!!
We want to make music and keep making music and we want that music to be really very good. We’re using pop-forms and structures because we like songs; Kinks songs, Beatles songs, Michael Jackson songs; absorbing the lessons of the pop classics, folding the present into the past toward the future to create dub histories; Avant-pop split between the austere and feverish. We write together. One or the other brings in the foundation of a new track or lyrics and the two of us add to it, writing as we record, offsetting the precision of electronic production with analog machines and sweat. Party music, physical music, romantic music.
We came together when we bonded playing one another tracks. We were driving across the U.S. listening to Moroder/Moulton style disco; French House & minimal techno; Post-Punk favorites like Young Marble Giants, Wire, The Cure & New Order; Black Star, Dilla, De La Soul vintage hip-hop; 60’s mod, garage & girl groups and loads of Studio 1/Trojan era ska & dub. When we got back, we wrote ‘Dressed In Dresden’ over a couple of days in the studio. It was a fast, heavy, raw stomper. But, on our debut EP, ‘This Desert’, we show the other side. ‘This Desert’ is our stoop-hop side; it’s the more ethereal, gauzy side of our tastes. It’s got lots of dubbed out vocals, disco shivers and all the Summertime-Gothic dreamy bits. And there are still other sides to come later this year on our first full-length album!
