this song gave a nostalgic feeling from a place that I never been nor I never   will know  but yet I'm extremely familiar with 

probably my 100th listening of this marvel and I'm always close to cry of happiness at this precise moment. Thank you so much Flavien & Etienne

Red Axes is Niv Arzi and Dori Sadovnik, two young men who have always lived in Tel-Aviv and have been making music together since the noughties. Ballad of the Ice is their debut album. Their artistic travels have taken them from the rock scene to the dancefloors, and to creating an album. More than a summary, this LP is an invitation to discover a singular musical identity: a ballad of the ice, a song as light as love and cold as a tunnel, springy as a dance step and deep as nostalgia.

Originally, the two young men were part of the band Red Cotton. Their musical obsessions were very distinct and have never really left them since: post-punk, new-wave, synth-pop, gothic rock, italo-disco and all the other styles with double-barrelled names that flourished in the underground of the western world at the turn of the 70s and 80s. They were barely born then, and Israel was hardly a promised land for these musical trends. Nonetheless, today the people who love these styles, at the forefront of which Cosmo Vitelli, founder of the label I’m a Cliché who signed them, recognise Red Axes’ talent for creating tracks that are not only impeccably referenced but also terribly current, in their production and in their intentions.

In 2009, house and techno made a noisy entrance into their lives. They were DJs by then and Tel Aviv was all hedonism and crazy parties. Red Cotton was over and Red Axes began. In 2012, I’m a Cliché introduced them into a community of people who enjoyed what the musical press could refer to as ‘cold-rave’. Four EPs were released on the French label that discovered sharp acts such as Yuksek, Azari & III and Simian Mobile Disco. Add to these a bunch of edits that went spinning on everyone’s turntables, remixes and originals that attracted labels such as Kill the JD, Throne of Blood, Correspondant, Clouded Vision, Relish and others – these built Red Axes’ reputation as the makers of solid dancefloor tools. Meanwhile, being resident DJs of the Bootleg in Tel Aviv gave them the ability to play versatile, broaden their scope, improve their way of thinking the music. It also allowed them to rub shoulders with some of their favourite DJs, from Ivan Smagghe and Jennifer Cardini to the Cómeme crew. These established DJs quickly became major supporters.

But Red Axes didn’t get lost in a loop of never-ending clubbing. The extent of their research is evident on the album. Apart from beautiful vocals by Abrão, a member of various Brazilian punk bands of the 80s, Arzi and Sadovnik handled all the instruments and machines. The influence of the types of music they love – which aren’t limited to the ones we just referred to – is inevitably present, but translates in unexpected ways. There’s a lot of maturity in these songs, memories, hashed-out feelings. This music could emanate from much older men; it brings on a certain saudade. But it’s never heavy and doesn’t rely on dusty clichés: Red Axes are very current and love to have fun above all else. They tread on ice with a certain elegance, ice that mustn’t crack or melt.

After ‘Head Like Glass’, a pure cold-wave intro, Red Axes take us on a repetitive stroll of light percussion with ‘Kicks Out of You’. Then comes the rock track ‘Watkins’, followed by a brass dub ‘Only a Clown Can Catch an Axe’. The poignant ‘Papa Sooma’ feels like it’s coming out of an old cassette player, and ‘Road to the Hills’ is all intimate house feelings. ‘Neon’ will make you clap your hands on the stage of an urban western, while ‘Candy’ is a toe-tapping Mancunian devil. ‘Bela Lugosi’s Dead’, a Bauhaus cover, adds a layer of groove in the bat cave, and finally, ‘Dreams Like a Tale’ closes the album in a psychedelic mist.

Red Axes ft Abrão- Papa Sooma (OUT NOW - from debut album Ballad of the Ice)

It's no secret that we're big fans of Henrik Schwarz explorations into the classical realm, what with bringing you his Trialogue last year.

When news of an album on Sony Classical, we were obvously keen to hear it. Titled 'Instruments' the LP' main focus is on, you guessed it, the instruments themselves. "​I wanted to see whether this music still means anything when you take away all the synthetic sounds and the beats."​ An interesting approach, considering the more formal and tested approach electronic musicians take when presented with an orchestra.

RESTER AVEC TOI (Feat. Miss Kittin)

1er single sortie le 18 septembre 2015

« Rester Avec Toi », mixé par Ash Workman (Metronomy, Christine & The Queens) avec Miss Kittin qui prête sa voix, est née d'une punchline : « Si je sors, ce n'est pas pour rentrer ! ».

Jo, chanteur, auteur, la note et le sait déjà, il tient là les prémices d'une chanson. Ce va et vient humide, ce cheval de brouillard qui hennit au loin, ce beat reptilien, la forme est à la fois entraînante, sensuelle, .. psychédélique.

Les Fils du Calvaire est un trio parisien (Jo, Damien et Clément), aujourd'hui partagé entre la capitale hexagonale et Berlin.

Ils sont aussi les créateurs de l'hybride électronique dOP signé sur Circus Company, le label ayant sorti le premier album de Nicolas Jaar.

« Rester avec toi » est le 1er extrait de « Fils de », le 1er album des Fils du Calvaire qui paraîtra début 2016.

Side A (45 RPM) - Hémisphère (7:18) 
Side B (45 RPM) - Je m'ennuie (8:19)

Returning to Beats in Space after their debut 12" (and the label's debut release) in the fall of 2011, Paradis offers "Hémisphère" and "Je m'ennuie", another pair of sophisticatedly crafted, noir-pop songs from the young Parisian duo.

On the two tracks of their second 12", Paradis self-reflect to find an escape hatch away from themselves. The A-Side, "Hémisphère", a macabre story of a lonely guest of life determined to leave everything behind, defies the narrative's convention and captivates with pop melodies and up beats abound.

On the B-Side, "Je M'ennuie", lovers settle into late-night melancholic routines soundtracked by a brooding bass line, an achingly affective synth lead, and vocals that grin behind the disaffected front. Ultimately, hope prevails as both tracks beg the listener to leave their headphones behind for the global village's dance floor. From Paris to Cologne, from Buenos Aires to New York, in the words of Michel Polnareff, "On ira tous au Paradis."

Each 12" from Beats in Space features original artwork in considerate & serial form. The first 12" features artwork by Denise Kupferschmidt, a Brooklyn-based artist finding inner / outer space in the movement of line and assemblage of color. The 12" packaging constructed by Will Work For Good features a vinyl BIS logo cling. The 12" will be available on May 22nd, 2012 from fine retailers worldwide. The digital version will be available May 29th, 2012 from the drab internet universe.

Paroles:
Paralysé , par le venin d’une déesse . 
Catapulté, dans un élan de paresse. 
Nos corps roulent , croulent , sur le divan. 
Atmosphère détendue ,les draps levés ,les cheveux dans le vent. 
Le dring du téléphone sonne , mon boss m’appelle : 
« oui allo, monsieur Chic, on n’vous voit plus d’puis une semaine ! » 
Aussitôt , je raccroche et je me glisse entre les draps ,  
l’envie de rien, l’envie de tout , l’envie de tout refaire , entre tes bras.
Enlacé, d’heure en heure , de gin to en gin tonic . 
La bouteille à moitié vide je sens venir sa main sur ma cuisse. 
On se dévoile, on se complète . 

De caresse en paresse  
De caresse en paresse  
De caresse en paresse (téléphone). 

Complètement déboussolé , 
Assurément inspiré .  
Un brun négligé , passionné , totalement envoûté . 
Clic clac , sur le canapé convertible . 
Cric crac , ça réveille la voisine . 
Flemmo-erotisme dans tout l’appartement, le travail me brise , on va scotché encore un long moment . 
Pas trop d’effort nan nan , 
Tout en finesse ok . 

De caresse en paresse  
De caresse en paresse  
De caresse en paresse (téléphone)
