CD released: Apr 22, 2013
2013 release, the second album from Lilacs & Champagne, which is the new venture from Alex Hall and Emil Amos, the minds behind the Portland-based instrumental band Grails. With Lilacs And Champagne, they've created another umbrella under which to tweak Hip Hop, tape-collage and the darkest creases of 70's film-soundtracks with their lysergic and perverse style of head-music. The project's name and imagery evoke a strange thrift-store mystery LP you might come across, unsure if you've discovered an exotic dub record, a flowery Bacharach AM radio classic or something by an obscure duo of Swedish avant-techno producers. |
