BACK TO THE FUTURE WITH PEPLAB

“We took all of our favourite gear and instruments and travelled to the Belgian Ardennes to start recording our 3rd album. In an isolated mountain cabin we let the creativity flow in whatever direction it was going, delving deep in the hooks and sounds of our musical roots.

‘Ken Sent Me’ found birth, sounding like a new-century wild ride through our early ‘wonder-years’ tape collection - back to the future of the 80’s”

Supported through the years by tastemakers like Norman Cook and Pete Tong, Peplab has built a dedicated international following, attracted strongly by both their contagious DIY attitude and their unique "dance/80's pop-crossover" –sound, making them truly accessible and hard to ignore.

Last year ‘Beautiful People’, a track of their previous album ‘Drive’, was featured in the trailer of Hollywood blockbuster ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’. A few months later UK hit-producer Brian Higgins used their song ‘It’s not the Drug’ as the basis for an album-track of UK no.1 girl-band Girls Aloud.

Their 3rd album ‘Ken Sent Me’ is clearly inspired by many icons of the 80’s, but Peplab’s progressive production-skills always prevent it from becoming ‘retro all the way’: Peplab’s music definitely captures the sound of today and tomorrow.

Ken Sent Me is by far the most accessible Peplab album until now and will definitely take their music to a wide international audience.
