TFGC020 - Folie 2

One Day the dreary, new normality became an endless loop of unsteady moods and contradicting sounds. Marlene Kollender, Gregor Darman and Sebastian Welicki from Düsseldorf became Folie 2.
Now it all makes sense!

Marking TFGC’s 20th Release, Folie 2 present a fascinating cosmos of sound and feeling. No shortcuts, this is a journey!

On May 3rd, LA pink goddess Angelyne’s neon-draped sophomore album “Driven to Fantasy” will be available once more on Angelyne Pink vinyl, in stores and online, in partnership with Dark Entries Records as part of the label’s 15th anniversary.
Angelyne, a voluptuous blonde, is a self-made icon who drives a pink corvette. A series of billboards popped up in the LA area featuring the name “Angelyne” along with a mysterious femme fatale posing provocatively. The campaign created an instant stir worldwide, making her the first icon who was "famous for being famous," and it led to the recording of her second solo album, “Driven to Fantasy.” The album features 8 tracks of bubblegum-hued new wave with a distinctly LA flavor. On sexy titles like “Sex Goddess,” “Skin Tight,” and “Flirt,” Angelyne fuses the glam and grit of southern California punk with flashy, sexy synth-pop style. This will be the first time that this cult record will be in print since its original release, on Hot Pink vinyl with a bonus 2-sided poster featuring lyrics. Angelyne is more than just a billboard queen or a rock star; she’s a movie star, a visual artist, a painter and even a political candidate. Celebrate a worldwide legend with this historic release.

Evelyne/Masao bring Testpattern to Dark Entries for the label’s first foray into vintage Japanese electronics. Masao Hiruma and Fumio Ichimura’s project Testpattern is known for their release Apres-Midi, a cult slab of synthpop perfection released by Yukihiro Takahashi and Haruomi Hosono’s legendary Yen Records in 1982. While Hiruma and Ichimura parted ways following Apres-Midi, Hiruma’s musical endeavors would continue after meeting French/American model and vocalist Evelyne Bennu in 1984 at a café bar where she would sit and write poetry. Their collaborative efforts as Evelyne/Masao were fruitful, and the duo first performed together in June 1984 on a television program called TOKYO ROCK TV. The album Testpattern comprises seventeen songs recorded in Hiruma’s home studio, which have never been released previously. The Evelyne/Masao duo continues building on the soundworld of Apres-Midi: lush, sophisticated electronics with intricate yet minimalist production. Tracks like “Sakuramochi” and “Bird Island” bear influence from Hosono most clearly, their soaring melodies revealing a subtly ironic redeployment of East Asian musical tropes. But Testpattern is more than homage to Yellow Magic Orchestra. “Tabac” and “Le Soleil Se Leve” display oddball sensibilities closer to Sky Records icons Asmus Tietchens or Cluster. Elsewhere, the project shows affinity for the punkier ethos of continental DIY electronics, like on the quirky “Alien Go Home” and a positively skewed cover of “Singin’ in the Rain.” Bennu’s vocals provide a common thread through these explorations, as she alternates deftly between New Wave deadpan and unhinged chanson singer—check her waxing maximally Francophone on “Au Clair de Lune,” based on an 18th century French song. Testpattern will be available on both double LP as well as CD, and includes a fold-out poster with liner notes with lyrics. This album is dedicated to Masao Hiruma, who passed away in 2011.
