Xiu debut full length album. Analog synths, minimal sound, using only analogue equipment (Roland Juno 60, Roland SH101, Korg KR55 etc).
La Fete Triste is sometimes instrumental, sometimes with vocals. Taking main influences from the french new/cold wave and the early british dreampop sound. Like the Kafka story that inspired their name, Brooklyn post-punk/dream pop band The Harrow walk a fine line between the alluring and the surreal. Driving, club-centric electronics nestle against lush organic instrumentation, woven with vivid songcraft. The result is a hauntingly familiar sound that is never complacent in scope. Limited edition of 300 handnumbered copies, white vinyl, comes with download code.
