Chateau Flight

Latest Remix for Mano le Tough - Oblique on Prins Thomas Internsjonal Imprint.

After a recent, short ‘n’ sweet stint on Tensnake’s Mirau imprint irish ex-pat Mano Le Tough reemerges on Internasjonal where he debuted as a producer. Despite his relatively small discography, Mano has managed to sculpt a unique and unmistakeable style fusing the deeper shades of house and techno with strong melodies and low BPM's. "Oblique" is another perfect example of that!! On the flip, French gentlemen of distinction Chateau Flight, toughen up the beats, throw in some african wood percussion and sparse psychedelic dub effects for a superb rhythmically multi-layered rework.

Dear all,

After a few years of research, we now have a very solid live set. We tried to escape from computer diktat, and we succeed, using a lot of external devices we can play with. That change a lot and we even sometimes forget that there is a computer running...The latest live we've done in Brussels was such a pleasure!!!
We have one track almost ready for the follow up on Innervisions. We should complete the 12" very soon...and hopefully, do some more music.
As Nicolas achieved 2 stunning 12" for Versatile, to be released very soon. We now both want to go in studio and do an album this year for Versatile.
We gonna rmx Joakim next single.
For my part, i am in studio with Lisa Li Lund (the voice of Quixote, which has been taken for the FIFA 2009!), producing an album for her. I always wanted to work with a singer so i really enjoy myself. Lisa has more a folk background, so the meeting is really interesting...
We also have the project to record the Traumaschine album. This project is a collaboration between Joakim, I:Cube and me. Tracks are impro based. We would like to record the album quickly, and live and then gives the post-prod treat...

cheers*

‘If Alone’ is the first single taken from Sideshow’s forthcoming album ‘Admit One’, out on Aus Music in February 09. Fin Greenall would describe himself as the engine of Sideshow, backed up by the band he has been touring with as legendary London label Ninja Tune’s first and foremost singersongwriter, Fink. During the bands downtime in between touring Europe and the USA, and writing his critically acclaimed soul-blues-dub, they came together in his 7Dials studio in Brighton to bring us some more trademark dub infused goodness. Paul St. Hilaire (previously known as Tikiman) is a dub vocalist and live performer of considerable power - known for his collaborations with Basic Channel, Rhythm & Sound, Deadbeat and Stereotyp. He also releases on his own label False Tuned. Original: A lament on the state of the world today from one of dub and reggae’s most respected underground lyricists. Paul’s rich vocal is propelled forward by Guy’s unrelenting bass pattern, before giving way to Fin’s hypnotic guitar line. Chateau Flight Remix: The Parisian duo are truly respectful of the vocal giving it the space it deserves to shine. Eerie sounds and fx dance around the melancholic melody like ghosts. The details and subtlety of this mix keep shining through on each listen. CF dub: The guys have really spoilt us with a dub that bears very little resemblance to the vocal version….. A rubbery, swinging bass line instantly locks you in and the crazy cut up breakdown spits you out the other side with a smile on your face. Appleblim & Komonazmuk remix: A journey that starts out mournful and deep and ends on a sweaty, euphoric high. Fully utilizing Sideshow’s guitar line to begin with but as the arrangement progresses Appleblim and Komon introduce a set of stabs that will undoubtedly get the arms reaching for the lazers.

The new Chateau Flight EP (versatile 060) will be released at the of September named "Before I started to dance" and it's under their aka "The Moniker of Quixote Feat. Lisa Li-Lund".

The EP comes with a great Prins Thomas Remix and a Chateau Flight dub version.

ENJOY!!
