David Fenech - Ergo Phizmiz

No news since a long time, that's a pure shame and we're gonna try to fix it, no kidding.

First please note everything about the ongoing tour of these two gentelemen ?


Since many years now David Fenech is driving his sound in the most out-of-time way.
While many toy-music records fail to elevate themselves above their material, the real succes of his Polochon Battle is to immediatly create a mysterious meaningfull atmosphere, and not to get stuck on this intimacy of most bedroom recordings.
This orchestra of sanzas, whistles and hummings, woody percussions, various strings and melodica with some light electronics, never happen to fail into clichés or easy-to-make, but seem to rely on its various influences in a very fresh way to reach the highest levels.
The loop aspect in some compositions never smell like an easy trick, the out of tune sides never spoil, and children voices sound obvious. Deep and humble musical attitude for the best results, a record full of life and filled with all-stars tournament featurings (Kubin, Tokumaru, Klimperei...)

Absolutely no idea of how it may work live, but how not to be curious about it ?
Ergo Phizmiz deserves another full-size post in itself, Oh God, asap...
