LOFI STORIES # 18 : ZOMBIE ZOMBIE Spéciale!

Frenchy Krautrock

DOWNLOAD

ZOMBIE-ZOMBIE IS A CRAZY SCIENTIST AND MUSICAL PROJECT BASED IN PARIS CITY, FRANCE, LEAD BY TWO PEOPLE, PROFESSOR ETIENNE JAUMET AND COSMICNEMAN (FROM HERMAN DUNE) USING SOUND AND RYTHM TO EXPLORE THE FEELING OF FEAR GROWING DEEP INSIDE OF YOU.

LISTENING TO THEIR MUSIC, YOU WILL GO THRU DIFFERENT EMOTIONNAL STAGES, WHEN THEY PLAY WITH THE ANALOG EFFECTS OF INSTRUMENTS LIKE THEREMIN, KEYBOARDS, OR SPACE ECHO TAPE DELAY PEDAL.

AND ALSO THE PROVOCATIVE DRUMMING AND THE SCREAMS WILL MAKE YOUR HEART BEAT FASTER, LIKE IN A HORROR MOVIE, WHEN YOU CAR WON’T START, AND SOMEONE’S TRYING TO KILL YOU.

THIS IS THE KIND OF FEELINGS, THIS TWO PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO REPRODUCE IN THEIR MUSIC...

All tracks from Zombie Zombie album A Land for Rengades ( Versatile - 2008)
+ samples from Rock Monsieur , Psychose and Dawn of the Dead + Persuasion (Throbbing Gristle - 20 jazz funk greats)

Many thanks to
Recyclart ,
