After Tristesse Contemporaine's shoegazer rock anthem "51 Ways To Leave Your Lover", Fondation resumes its journey through alternative genres of party music, going for schizo electro-organic mutant disco this time around.
A-side is pure filth juice; those who know Remote's previous numbers will feel home with the track that could be considered the duo's finest number to date. What "Zip" will be remembered for is its bass line, no doubt about it. And when, bar after bar, it ends up coming all together, all you can hope for is a seriously dramatic break, as it's the only way to relieve such a pressure. And this is what you get. On the flip is a part of the spectrum hardly ever explored yet, neither by the duo nor the imprint with the capital F.
"Scinax" may as well be the future of electro-funk, closing the gap between eighties synth-pop epicness and those nerdy NYC rooftop summer tunes .Don't expect it to cool you down though, too busy it is burning up the dance-floor, crowd included. "Bookham" is the proof a track can be light without being lame, catchy without going all cliché. In a nutshell: pop without being predictible. You'll soon be willing to thank Remote for this record as you'd thank life for blessing you with another never-ending warm summer night.
