The latest house duo to emerge from the Parisian underground bid us bonjour with this stellar debut on Dialect, fusing retroist 80s leanings with brain mulching techno voodoo. Title track ‘Scandale’ and ‘Lame De Fond’ share the same pulsing sequenced heart, transplanted from Carpenter soundtracks and Italo disco classics and then zapped with a thousand volts of warped, detuned and malfunctioning synthesizer electricity. ‘El Topo’ replaces the bristling sequences with a spiky post punk snarl courtesy of live guitars, bass and organ (a la Suicide no less) but retains the twisted electronics for a woozy half time experiment in dancefloor psychedelia. Essential for fans of Joakim, Ivan Smagghe and early Gesaffelstein productions.

French duo from Paris. I'll be honest, I don't know much about them (Patriiiick?!) but they've already garnered support by Chloé, David Shaw, Tim Paris, and Dombrance among others. And rightly so - this is some excellent new musica from our European friends. "Scandale" is both minimal and retroist, utilizing 80s drum machines (Jomox I think) with old sequencers and synths to conjure up that electronic voodoo usually saved for the Norwegian / Swedish crews of Frak, Borft, Sex Tags Mania etc. All those clever things they teach you in synthesis (glide functions, de-tune, oscillator fine tune etc) executed brilliantly and always in sympathy with the dancefloor. "Lame De Fond" uses equally sophisticated synthesis techniques but goes on a late night Italian-tinged theme... that is, I think - by this point the synth lines were completely infiltrating my cerebrum and I started to shut down as a human and slowly metamorphose into a robot. "El Topo" was the final jam I needed before ripping off all my clothes to reveal a fully chrom'd body piece. Then proceeding to strut a half-tempo robo-walk across the saloon, nodding at the cybernetic barmaid and flicking her a wink of my eye before leaving to do laser sword battle with some invader from a unwelcome star cluster. Yagetme?

Après la sortie de son album solo 'EPOCA BLU' (2020)et l'album de son duo culte IL EST VILAINE 'LES MYSTÈRES DE LORIENT' (2021), le chanteur électro français SIMON SAYS est de retour avec
'MORNING MIST'.

Morning Mist

After « Morning Mist « first single released this summer, Simon Says is back with a new single : « Casa Susanna ». 

Following on from his first album “Epoca Blu”, Simon constructs a universe where contemporary, sometimes experimental sounds collide with organic pop.

“Casa Susanna” is a romantic ballad inspired by the story of a villa in the Catskill Mountains north of New York, a popular vacation destination for cross-dressing men and transsexual women in the early 1960s. Discovered last Photography festival in Arles, Simon was inspired by hundreds of photos exhibited to compose this piece.

Accompanied by Thibault Barbillon (Bass, Guitar) and Hervé Bécart (Drums), mixing was entrusted to Jerome Caron (Studio Felix) and mastering to Shawn (Optimum). The cover and animations are once again the creations of Apollo Thomas.

Simon Says - Casa Susanna

"After 'Morning Mist,' the first single released this summer, and 'Casa Susanna' in the fall, 'Nikka,' Simon Says' new (mini)-album, is set to release on March 22, 2024.
In line with his debut album 'Epoca Blu,' 'Nikka' is an intimate record, an alternative pop. More acoustic, Simon blends influences from the 80s. 'Snow Flake,' a folk ballad, an ode to the birth of his daughter, closes this opus.
Accompanied by Sofia Fanego (vocals) on the album's eponymous track, Thibault Barbillon (Bass, Guitar) on 'Casa Susana' and 'Ex-voto,' Hervé Bécart (Percussion, Bass), the mixing was entrusted to Jerome Caron (Studio Felix) for the tracks 'Morning Mist,' 'Casa Susana,' and 'Nikka.' The mastering is done by Shawn (Optimum Studio). The artwork and animations are creations of Apollo Thomas."

Il Est Vilaine - Jungle Myth

TOOT D’AMORE is one of those infectious horns and bass-driven funk numbers that should be played at maximum volume in all discerning clubs. It will certainly get your crowd in a joyous trance. On remix duty we have Prins Thomas, not only a fantastic DJ, but also a master of the remix. His “Diskomiks” feels like a mighty Santana jam tailored for a modern-day Loft, and his “Bogus Bonus” is one of these hypno afro-disco-dub delights that will please any devoted Idjut Boys and Bear Entertainment fans !
