Nôze: Songs on the rocks [mp3 Beatport]
One of the best albums of 2008 been released while the APC was, khmmm dead. So, it’s a must to post it right now, in the very first day of our resurrection. These brilliant french bastards, the Nôze really outdone themselves with this. The Songs on the rocks is pure genius. Check out their myspace to listen especially that Fever Noze bootleg! Here is a live video of one of their mad sets.
Nôze are Nicolas Sfintescu and fellow troublemaker Ezechiel Pailhes.
United by a shared love of pianos, straw hats and stripping down to the
waist in public, Ezechiel and Nicolas have been perpetrating various
acts of musical mirth and mischief since 2004. Their tracks have
dominated DJ and club playlists, and the group’s no-holds-barred
performances have earned them a reputation as an incendiary live
electronic act in the tradition of Suicide :: Timpani, spy guitars,
marching snares, and cinematic flourishes all collide on Songs on the
Rocks to create one of the most diverse sonic palates in dance music.
The sonic jokers in Nze combine banging dance-floor beats with Tom
Waits howls and French carnival music for an amazingly coherent good
time album.
