hifiklub is a French rock outfit who I've been e-mailing back and forth with for the past few weeks, listening to various recordings of theirs. I even posted a cover they did of a R. Stevie Moore track a while back on REMIX WEDNESDAY.
The band has just released a new EP, which is the last in an installment of four. Later this year, the four EPs will be coming together to make a full album titled How to Make Friends. Sounds pleasant to me! Download two tracks from the EP below.
Fans of home recording know the name R. Stevie Moore. When it comes to capturing the magic of bedroom rock, few have a discography that measures up to his.
Moore is involved in a new project, Wicked Witches of the South. The collaboration is completely internet-based and also features Régis Laugier of HIFIKLUB, Mike Watt of Minutemen Fame, and Frédéric Landini of Get Back Guinozzi. So this might quality as a self-recording supergroup.
The band has officially streamed their first song on their new website, and click here to check it out. It's somewhat of a introductory statement to the band, repeating "wicked witches of the south" in the lyrics, and playing with some broom-esque noises in the percussion.
