Bio
CASSIS & THE SYMPATHIES just released a new album: more acoustic, exciting - accordion driven Pop/Chansons with many sweet spots and up to 4 part harmonies. ..ANALOG LOVE.. features legendary bassist Herbie Flowers (Walk on the Wild Side), 'guitar-god Chris Spedding', Famiola genius Lev 'Ljova' Zhurbin..... The album is produced by CASSIS mostly with Robby Baier and features 22 players. It has been recorded in New York, Massachussetts, Southern England and Berlin. d Massachusetts). Sound magician Joe Lambert provided his final mastering touch. Award winning designer Gabi Schies is working on the intriguing album design! And a new haunting music video is in the making. Watch out! .. Analog Love – Cassis and the Sympathies (Wunderblumenmusik) .. Benign, serene coming down from the clouds willfully we slow dive into Analog Love, a neon lit lounge, default setting on sultry, though soon enough we allow the lady to take our hand and dance us into a wide open cinema land. This is new wave old romantic, ambient, impulsive, addictive, a darker Julee Cruise, a content Nico, still slightly dangerous, a sweetly lethal bubblegum, deep blue tripping over the rhythm disguised as sighs. There is that skewed perspective that Lydia Lunch gave on Queen Of Siam, though this time the chanteuse is backed by a mixture of Yello and seemingly old time wicked jazz musicians playing for their souls. In these songs disturbing desire is just, always JUST, a finger click away. These are invitations to a languid version of Hell, an acceptably edgy version of Heaven. Piano and Accordion entice and bewitch in the guise of slick warped ballads, tears and escape, they urge us to close our eyes and Sink. A cool journey away from the modern normal. NBT (Next Big Thing Review) .. The songs are fuel for Cassis' filmmusic. She wrote ..GIRL TIME.. for the Oscar nominated 'Ferry Tales'. ..
