Moodoïd

The album follows the release last year of their acclaimed Kevin Parker (of Tame Impala fame) produced debut EP which showcased the multiple talents and obsessions of its leader: psychedelism, glam rock, world music and experimental pop.

The 10-track album, Produced and mixed by Nicolas Vernhes (Animal Collective, Dirty Projectors, and Deerhunter), also features Melody’s Echo Chamber (for whom he played guitar during her previous tour), Didier Malherbe (Gong), Riff Cohen and his own father, cult jazz saxophone player Jean-Marc Padovani.

Filled with unorthodox scales and asymmetric time signatures, yet remaining highly musical and fluid, it incorporates oriental instruments and melodies into more classic pop arrangements - feeding analog synthesisers and off-kilter electric guitars through Leslie cabinets and echo chambers it falls somewhere between the melodies of Robert Wyatt and the dream-like psychedelia of Connan Mockasin.
