2020 repress - a new master piece is coming on macadam mambo, presenting two young guys from the « lyon » scene where the label is based, called the pilotwings. they were instantly noticed last year with their smashing first ep « agorespace » released on the young bfdm imprint, creating the buzz with strong break tracks in a super fresh spirit. this time they’ve let all their great inspiration take over, to deliver a strong piece of « chicago » oriented house with tribal and japanese influences, the 707 is never too far, and a sexy male voice brings you into the moist backroom of this club named « boxboys ». essential must have !

sponsor needed! a fresh new transmission from our favourite french duo. back after the drop of their debut album les portes du brionnais over a year ago, followed by a quiet season in the studio, the pilotwings are set to land a fourth release on their home base of bfdm, pour faire pleurer les chomeurs

2016 repress
for this inaugural release the french label bfdm introduces two young promising producers aka the pilotwings. agorespace is an excursion, a trip where dark and killer drums meet with some soft melodies and primitive percussion. trance beats is a wonky house track made up of hip-hop/jungle breaks and synthetic animal sounds, a powerful combination of tribal rhythm and creepy synths. on the same side comes cavernes magiques, a modern electronic tune where raw 707 jams gives way to trippy dance pads, 90s influences. on the other side a strong techno track contrasted with bright synths called cours-la-ville, a dark and long exploration.

one year has passed since the pilotwings’ first output « agorespace ». expectations went further in 2015 as they contributed to the rave-ish j-zbel project. the pair is now back on bfdm with another ode to rurality and old-fashioned analogue. including 4 tracks, « molitor 71 » goes deeper into retrofuturist nostalgia and bucolic mood. a1 31 septembre (on va tout niker) introduces full-on panflute melodies and uplifting korg exotica. as the trancy chicago dream fades out, a2 les invasions babar unveils its weird combo of electro beats and massive patrick cowley-esque synths. unplanned bass moves lead this jam while an undertaking voice calls for no less than « the greatest experience of your life ». things settle down on the nocturnal b1 congo libre. focus on breakbeats and sophisticated rhythms evokes trance beats, while sparkling synths emerge from everywhere. the ep ends up with a floating ambient piece called buruganda ouverture and designed for the listener to rediscover the meaning of his existence. molitor will give you faith in humanity and flutes again.
