French Horn Rebellion (Robert and
David Perlick-Molinari) kick off 2011 by announcing the US self-release of their debut album 'The Infinite
Music of French Horn Rebellion'on April 19th digitally and May 24th physically (Once Upon A Time Records) and play 27 date North American live shows supporting French electro pop outfit
Yelle starting 17th April. MySpace
Music exclusively premieres the band's debut a week early, go
here to listen to it today.
Written, produced and mixed by Robert and David, 'The Infinite Music...' is a debut album that warps the fabric of dance, electro, rock and funk and may just turn out to be a contender for this year's most ambitious, multi-faceted and engaging debut album. Crucially, the album also follows an intergalactic narrative that tracks the physical and emotional journey of an unknown French Horn player. "There is a story running through the album, it's about the Universe. We're pretty clear on what the story is, but what you take away from it may be something entirely different," says David.
The album's artwork features the sculptures of Portland based artist Meredith Dittmar (
www.corporatepig.com) who the band contacted after finding her work on the Internet. Dittmar has exhibited in New York and as far afield as, Mexico City and Istanbul.
On the back of just three EP's to date, these two unassuming brothers, originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, have already toured and played with the likes of Hot Chip, Sleigh Bells, The Drums,
Cut Copy and SebastiAn and have been tipped by everyone from Q Magazine, The Guardian, Time Outand French music bible Les Inrockuptibles to hometown publications such as The New York Times and NY Daily News.
The Brooklyn-based duo already had an illustrious pedigree;
David produced MGMT's indie release, Time to Pretend EP for New York indie Cantora Records, and with previous single"
Up All Night" they scored a Record of the Week on BBC
Radio 1 and an opening slot on the influential Kitsune Maison compilation series. The band have also remixed the likes ofMEN, Two Door Cinema Club, OMD,
Young Empires and Alex Winston, the later resulting in JPlatt of New York producers du jour The Knocks madly tweeting "its like the hottest thing I've ever heard"!
Following their trip to Asia for shows in Hong Kong w/ MGMT, China, Korea and Japan, the band is ready to start their 27 date North American tour supporting
Yelle that kicks off in
Phoenix on 17th April.
