though theyre both originally from kansas, chrissy & hawley met in chicago, and began working together on songs that unite their very different individual styles: emotional dance music with catchy melodies and thoughtful lyrics in the tradition of yazoo, pet shop boys, arthur russell, kid creole & the coconuts, larry levan, and patrick cowley. their debut album comes hot on the heels of an ep on smartbar’s own northside ‘82 imprint, which has won over tastemakers like the black madonna, jackie house & jason kendig (honey soundsystem), prince rama, and avalon emerson. “some of the most earnest and charming pop music i’ve heard in years” - avalon emerson “iÕve been obsessing over ‘photoboothՔ - jason kendig nite owl co-founder chrissy is a genre-bending dj / producer, known for releases on labels like classic, freerange, razor-n-tape, planet mu, and hypercolour, his influential “my year of mixtapes” blog, and his dj residency at the legendary chicago nightclub smartbar. hawley shoffner is a chicago-based singer-songwriter with a distinctive, immediately recognizable voice in the tradition of karen o, kathleen hanna, or siouxsie sioux. 2lp includes special insert and digital download code

for the opening ep from too many squares, frank butters manages to gene-splice together the raw dna from all of the ugly-beautiful sounds present in the birth of modern dance music. -conditioning for solitude- is the hum of dark tubes, the slice and hiss of sharp synthesised percussion and the scream of blissful dementia. the mutant that existed for a brief and joyous frozen moment while disco was still birthing house. -body burn” is the tropics with a black sun and africanism with a stopwatch instead of a heart. recalling experimentalist forays by the likes of liaisons dangereuses, patrick cowley and karen finley, the 2 originals on offer manage to recall the raw passion of an era without feeling contrived or derivative. the ep is rounded off by sheila fleurraters remix of * 3 minute warning* which continues the pioneer-ist motif, albeit allying itself with a much more early industrial aesthetic.

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.
