Chrome Plus Cassette. c48 run of 100 out on HYPERMAGIC July 27th
Limited run of cassettes in collaboration with Paris based label Kill The DJ. 
Order >> http://hypermagicmcr.bandcamp.com/album/c-a-r-live

We've only made 100 copies and when they're gone they're gone. 

The tape version of the release is an uninterrupted 40 minutes word-to-word capture of C.A.R. performance, recorded at The Shacklewell Arms, London on June 11, including most of 'My Friend' tracks plus some exclusive and unreleased songs. 

C.A.R. (Choosing Acronyms Randomly) is the project of Chloé Raunet, formerly singer of coldwave band Battant and co-host of the Latete Atoto show on NTS Radio. Last November Kill The DJ released C.A.R.'s debut full length 'My Friend', a record exploring pop in all its forms, moving between post-punk, synth pop, krautrock and psychedelic disco. Ever since, the band has been touring Europe non-stop, and together with the Parisian collective we thought we'd make a special tape to celebrate the months spent on the road and on stage, where C.A.R. rolls around the edges of pop. 

Includes digital pre-order of C.A.R. Live. The moment the album is released you'll get unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus a high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

Taken from C.A.R's new album 'Crossing Prior Street'
Out 27th March 2019 - https://ransom-note-records.lnk.to/CrossingPriorStreet

@C_A_R’s new album ‘Crossing Prior Street’ merges gritty dance music with esoteric pop, telling the story of escaping a broken childhood in Vancouver, and finding her way to the lonely streets of East London, at the tender age of 16. Endorsement of the personal journey, it’s an album dedicated to restlessness; a mechanism for tackling unresolved conflict, with others and within herself.

Pre-Order Album

C.A.R. - Sore Loser

He dragged his feet along the ground, kicking up the stones underfoot. It wasn't the outcome he'd hoped for, he thought he'd come out on top. For weeks he'd been planning how to win her over and sweep her off her feet. But it was too little too late. He'd waited too long and now she'd slipped through his fingers. He wished he had somebody else to blame...

In all the excitement of announcing C.A.R.'s second album on Ransom Note Records, we overlooked the incredible remix of 'Sore Loser' from Manie Sans Délire's Trenton Chase. Stripping back most of the vocals, he morphs the track into a hypnotic wave cut, propped up by driving synth lines. Crossing Prior Street will be released on 27th March with further remixes from the likes of Radioactive Man, Trenton Chase and Anna Wall...
