THE ENTRY is working on a remix for Panda Transport…

January 11th, 2010

The Entry(Andrea Pestoni) is doing a remix of Freakshow…

More about him:

After 2 studio albums, 1 remix album and more than hundred of concerts all around Europe, Andrea Pestoni - songwriter, singer and producer of the Zurich based project Pureape - decided to continue his musical journey under a new artistic identity.
The Entry is a kind of nightlife creature that takes shape in the very late hours of the day. Imagine an introvert cabaret artist that express deep feelings and violent passions thorugh banal pop songs and that perform them on an imaginary scene for an imaginary audience.

Debut album “Life Cabaret” is out now

Monorail review in We Heart Music…

January 8th, 2010

PANDA TRANSPORT
pandatransport.com myspace.com

According to Panda Transport’s biography, they are a Frenchman (Ti) and an American woman (Kat). They play a sort of low-fi indiepop music. Their EP, Monorail was released last month.

What I immediately like about the duo is that Kat’s sweltering vocals sometime makes their music sound like a lazy evening at a jazz club. However, the upbeat music can be as fun as on “Monorail” to somewhat silly “Freakshow” (complete with doo-doo-scat).

The one non-Kat song, “Cicadas in Stereo” definitely stands out. I’m also not certain what is being sung on this line: “I want to ____ every single butterfly“? Did I just hear that right?

You can hear their entire EP streaming at their official website.

I will say this, they’re cute, and their songs reminds me of one of my favorite band the Would-Be-Goodsif they were to go jazz lounge. You can pick up Monorail digitally at usual (itunes, le amazon). Physical CD list can be found here (available last Tuesday?).

Monorail reviewed in Smother magazine

January 3rd, 2010

Sultry off-jazz vocals with the constructs of electro-pop and indie pop building a foundation, Panda Transport, a duo consisting of Kathy Compton and Thierry Holweck have been around since ’06. The duo found fame with their single “Transmission” off of their critically acclaimed debut “Plush Mechanique”, which was featured on Greys Anatomy. Having written their debut essentially through Internet-based collaborations, Panda Transport set out to do something more organic and intimate. Intelligently blending ‘found sounds’ (they sampled cicadas outside of Kathy’s yurt and car-door-slams became a new found kick drum) with personal and emotional vocals, light melodies, sweet harmonies, and future pop rhythms, “Monorail” builds upon the success of their debut and proves that they’re far removed from the dreaded sophomore jinx. Pop fanatics will covet the truly catchy nature of many of the tracks, while the more indie and experimental music junkies will drool over decomposing and digesting the varied musical tapestries that make up each track.
