Two very special and exclusive tracks on very limited vinyl.
EFFI BRIEST (re)covering TELEPATHEs 'Chromes On It'
TELEPATHE remixing EFFI BRIESTs 'Mirror Rim'
EFFI BRIEST are six enchanting, stylish and talented ladies that reside mostly in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. They mix African, psych, krautrock, and goth into something completely new and their own. There have been comparisons to early Siousxie, but it's primitive animism is as evocative of late period Slits. With its dubby drum & bass, skinny reggae guitar, backwards acoustic counterpoint, accordion, syncopating percussion, chanting vocals, their next single seems a fair indication of where the band is headed.
For fans of: Can, Kate Bush, Slits, early Siouxsie And The Banshees…
Removed from the centrifugal forces of Brooklyn's "scenes" and avant-garde formulas, but no less crafted by that powerful creative hub, Telepathe carve up the boundaries between any number of genres including dub, hip-hop, and progressive pop, to devastating effect. They are the hypnotic, multi-layered sound of your new favourite band.
Though the band has a tradition of rotating members, Melissa Livaudais and Busy Gangnes are the creative pairing at the heart of Telepathe. Melissa and Busy possess an esoteric, voodoo-like charm that's euphoric and impossible to ignore. They have an uncanny knack for crafting a distinctive sound that's cavernous and leftfield enough to plunder inky depths and keep things compelling, but which owns an over-riding pop sentiment capable of ensnaring the
masses.
Telepathe's debut releases, the˜Farewell Forest' EP and Sinister Militia 12", were released via Social Registry in the US in 2007. Since then, their sound has developed towards the thrilling synthetic ambience present in their most recent recordings. Killer melodies, trance-inducing loops, drum-machine-driven
experimentation, and the haunting vocal interplay between Melissa and Busy are Telepathe's hallmarks. Their woman-meets-machine mishmash
is present throughout debut album ˜Dance Mother', produced by TV On The Radio's industrious Dave Sitek, due for release at the beginning of 2009.
"this irish based outfit return with their second vinyl release. this new ep follows on from their stunning debut not not is fine from 2006. the ep opens up with the original version of we are men with a big pulsating punk funk bass riff providing the backbone for a really uptempo piece of no wave complete with eighties synth action. richie egan aka jape gives the track a bit of eighties electro pop treatment on his remix with a big throbbing drum machine and hypnotic looped vocal treatments. that boy tim opens up the second side with lots of added funky guitar sounds. the decal remix closes the ep and its probably the pick of them for me. its a superb piece of heaving guitar heavy industrial space rock sounding a bit like godflesh with a punk funk fixation. its all very hypnotic and quite dark and menacing too. december 2008" - Road Records
"Well it's about time! Cap Pas Cap have starved us of releases in 2008, but thankfully they've managed to squeeze one in before the end of the year. So, was it worth the wait? Well, in a word, yes! New single We Are Men is textbook CPC, but still utterly new. The production is slightly different from the excellent Not Not is Fine EP of last year. More polished, not as raw and slightly more electronic. The trademark hooks, unique vocal and robust rhythm section are still intact. The only difference here is that they've invited some of their mates to the party - Decal, thatboytim and Jape. Mr Egan's 4-to-the-floor rework gets our top vote, but there is something interesting in all of the reinterpretations." - Totally Dublin
"Cap Pas Cap return with a new 12" release containing new song ‘We Are Men’ a fast-paced tune which zips out of the speaker with distorted bass and an urgency not heard from this band before. This really leaves us salivating for more and for bonus points, not a cowbell to be heard.
What really makes this a must-have release are the three remixes accompanying the tune. From the subtle driving remix by thatboytim, a banging electro workout from Jape (fast becoming the best Irish remixer going if this and his remixes for Fight Like Apes and SEBP are anything to go by) and an elongated and slowed down space-rock remix from Decal." - State Magazine
"The single itself is a solid, thumping dance-rock number with a throbbing Klaxons drumbeat, yelping vocals and enough kazoo/guitar/indie female backing vocals to ensure this would be a welcome banger in any dark club on a cheeky Tuesday night booze-up." - Drop D
"Sangles Redux" features a collection of some of the best earlier Indian Jewelry recordings, some released on now out of press vinyl, some never released before. While no studio recordings have yet to capture the full intoxication of the Indian Jewelry live show, these recordings seem to come closest. Indian Jewelry create music based in cowboy motorik, hyperliterary chants and magical realism, concrete sound, endless drones, pre-cognitive dissonance, mesmerism, and atavistic junk. Renegades to traditional song structure, Indian Jewelry mix drum machine, noise, percussion, loops, dance beats, guitar, keyboards, scraps of metal, and other sounds into an unpredictable mash of aural delights, drones, and melody. Already amassing a swarm of devotees, Indian Jewelry is expanding our concept of song, and the way it is constructed and heard.
"These guys kind of remind me of a modern updated version of Suicide with the guitar explosions of sonic youth, the laid back psyche rock of Spacemen 3 and scuzzy synth led No Wave sounds. its a great big blast of pounding beats, big distorted bass synths, totally fuzzed up guitars and howling discordant vocals." - Road Records
"When it comes to summarising all INDIAN JEWELRY do into one song, Redux's fifth track Chasing Rats Out comes pretty close. Echoed, shamanistic vocals, semi-industrial/semi-blues track instrumentation, an implied mysticism, and a heaped teaspoon of paranoia. Yet, it's probably the song's easier definability that makes it the weakest of a brilliant bunch of songs here. From the more cathartic nature of the Einsturzende Neubauten - invoking Bombing Nightclubs to the Velvet Underground and Nico styling of Downtown, the Jewelry never repeat the same formula. They take elements of one song and carry it into another equation, hoping the chemical result is as explosive as before. Not that there's anything laboratory-like to be found here. All is loose, flowing, and determined to invert your perception of pop music and the wide world itself." - Totally Dublin
"Indian Jewelry come at you like Iggy Pop swaggering on stage - leather-jacketed hipsters with plenty of attitude and an unwavering sense of self. They don't sound like they come from one specific era - they could have shared a stage with Suicide just as easily as the likes of Telepathe. Tracks like 'Going South' grab the attention easily, others, like 'Chasing Rats Out' could wash over you in a blur if you're not careful. Then there's 'Downtown' ... reminiscent of the Velvet Underground, with seductive lyrics... They're hypnotic, the disconnected vocals and pulsating beats draw you in and threatening to never let go." Event Guide
"This band reminds me of anything that was ever fascinating about Post-Punk, No Wave, etc... hints of bands like BUSH TETRAS, PYLON, early SONIC YOUTH and many more come to mind - but the best thing is that CAP PAS CAP turn all this into a sound of their own! Not only the best thing out of Ireland since many many years, but maybe as well one of the best records of this and last year!" - X Mist
"Fantastic debut EP from Dublin's Cap Pas Cap who skillfully combine elements of Sonic Youth, LCD Soundsystem, the Rapture and the Cure to create a wonderful indie-post-punk meltdown." - Picadilly Records
"the perfect middle ground between the no wave sounds of early sonic youth, talking heads funky basslines and the sounds of modern bands like the rapture and lcd soundsystem" - Road Records
"Cap Pas Cap occupy that awkward no-man's-land where Sonic Youth, Talking Heads and !!! might get it on at Frank Zappa's slumber party" - Dazed & Confused

Luftkluster/Luftfluks is the second album in an ongoing series of LP editions by Canell & Watkins. Following The New Heat/Obscured by Light projects, the new album further expands the duo's joint commitment to generate subjective fluctuations between structured and free-form melodies. Combining found objects, instruments and other analogue mechanics with organ, guitar, voice and custom built percussion, the LP is as volatile as the material it is made from.
The open songs of Luftkluster/Luftfluks hover in midair, occasionally interrupted by angular signals from electro-physiological instruments or the hypnotic humming of a 6.25 meter tape-loop. It flows from vocal interludes to fluxing fluorescent noise, blending rootless percussion with damaged flickers of electric drone organs. The unpredictable nature of Luftkluster/Luftfluks humid melodies exists somewhere in between spontaneity and determinacy; a quiet, ephemeral collage of alternating altitudes.
