136. KARAOCAKE "IT DOESN"T TAKE A WHOLE WEEK" REMIX

next up is a fantastic reverb-laden remix of the awesome blown-out, lo-fi indie pop track, It Doesn't Take a Whole Week {remixed by Les Marquises} from Paris-based minimal/indie pop trio Karaocake {originally the solo project of Camille Chambon} off the new "The Resolution" split EP (2011).

"Tears / Fights / Tears / Fights / Already / Already done this time.

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / and it's over."

It Doesn't Take a Whole Week {remixed} is an ecstatic, lo-fi, 90s trip hop-esque track, Chambon's distorted, candid, spoken delivery style evokes Beth Gibbons {Portishead} et Trish Keenan {Broadcast}, enjoy!

i highly recommend heading over to bandcamp where you can download the Les Marquises / Karaocake "The Resolution" split EP for free.

i'd also strongly recommend getting a copy of Karaocake's brilliant debut album "Rows & Stitches" {if you haven't already} which is now available on vinyl from Clapping Music, otherwise it is available on cd or as an mp3 download. you can stream the album on the Karaocake Clapping Music releases page.
