Anatole Buisson:

Anatole Buisson is a French multi-instrumentalist who is based in Essen. From

his home studio, he writes, composes, records, mixes and masters all his tracks, in complete

tracks, in complete autonomy. His music draws on eclectic influences that range

from La Femme to L'impératrice, via the Talking Heads and the whimsical universe of

Philippe Katerine.

Anatole Buisson offers a free, imaginative and desirable pop with

uninhibited references.

Carried by a pop energy that is both rhythmic and psychedelic,

Anatole Buisson mixes absurd poetry, subtle humor and intoxicating groove.

His compositions oscillate between rich productions and more raw and minimal textures

and minimalist textures in deliberately far-fetched lyrics, exploring with mockery and sensitivity

explore various themes of his daily life with mockery and sensitivity.

Reggie Devoyage:

"Reggie Devoyage" sounds like the name of a person at first - which is kind of true. Reggie is a shady character, stuck in the 80s, who sits in a smoky basement at night and listens to old cassettes by the light of an almost burnt-out desk lamp. The sound of the Cologne band, consisting of Hannah, Alexi and In-Won, comes from precisely this world. From many late-night sessions between the long-time friends, "Reggie Devoyage" emerged as a musical playground for lo-fi synth-pop with a penchant for clichés and irony.

Inspired by the sounds of the 80s and the world of weirdo pop (e.g. Yellow Magic Orchestra, Sade, Ariel Pink), they create songs that are both sophisticated and playful, with great attention to detail, but always with a wink. They rely on quirky synths, intimate vocals and snotty basslines. And Reggie? Reggie is always in the room, pulling the musical strings with a raised eyebrow and a mischievous grin.
