Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : Pin Up Club

the rotterdam based club bar continues their colourful split series!

2017 saw the arrival of pin up club here at the bordello with a superb three tracker, friends of the vortex. now the dutch partnership are back. this time a quartet of tracks has been selected to produce the forever machine. the bold bars of friends of the vortex, the romantic rushes and soundtrack silhouettes are all present with new elements being introduced to further develop a truly unique style. breathy vocals and melancholy are countered by warm synthlines in the brooding -valis- before the lonesome -is there anybody out there?- blooms into a daringly bright work of disco dimensions. opening the flip is the title piece. smouldering, -the forever machine- burns with quivering chords that rise ever skyward on a column of tight rhythms as lyrics spiral ever upward. -a deepness in the sky- is a perfect illustration of pin up club s ability to transform burgeoning sombre sounds into tempered elation, rumbling strings and fragile percussion intermingling for a heady finale. welcome back to bordello a parigi guys, welcome back to pin up club.

the phantasm label has something special up its sleeve for june: a new ep from amsterdam outfit pin up club and an excellent remix from lady of the moment, dfa star and disco innovator perel.
<br< this young label comes from sinchi collective in association with night noise and has quickly established itself with innovative music. that continues with the trippy leftfield electronica and dark disco and ebm flavours of pin up club, who have worked on labels like nein, relish, bordello a parigi and known for their dj and live sets at locations such as berlin s salon zur wilden renate and amsterdam s dgtl.

in their own words, -for this ep we chose to work with natural ambient sounds as a background for each track. so if you listen carefully you can hear dogs barking, crickets chirping and other ambient noises we ve recorded ourselves on our travels,- say the pair who derived these tracks from live jam sessions using plenty of proper hardware, a roland space echo and fender stratocaster, amongst other things .
