Infiné, easy music for the hard to please

Bachar Mar-Khalifé - Machins Choses (ft. Kid A) from InFine Music on Vimeo.

The desire to rework a version with Kid A was strong and we both wanted to get out of our comfort zone, from which comes out this physical tension in the vocal parts during the recording. The ethereal saxo makes way for the clock of the piano and sets free

Rone //

“Bye Bye Macadam” = bye bye highways = bye bye concrete = Bye Bye western City’s skyscrapers !

Each releases have a particular groove that smells warmth of south of america. "Cómeme means a body that gives itself away", they said. Spend some time with tracks of Rebolledo, Ana Helder or the 2012's hit "Geffen" by Barnt and you will understand their idea. Alejandro Paz is a key piece of this wild puzzle.

Fraction //

In 2011, InFiné invited Fraction and Mexican artist Cubenx to collaborate during its annual workshop that takes place close to Poitiers, France. They developed together a post-shoegaze technotronica live in august of that year and following that performed few memorable shows in France.

Their initial liveset at La Carrière in 2011 can be previewed on Tsugi`s website.

This EP gathers several tracks that appeared in the live where techno beats stand alongside guitar feedbacks. It synthesizes their common taste for melodies and a sens of shoegazing that they respectively fed with their own approach and personality.

Preview the 5 tracks on Bandcamp !
