ZOMBIE ZOMBIE BIO:

“Zombie-Zombie layer motorik drumming, droning organs and synths,
chiming glockenspiels and all manner of bleepy detail into a churning,
prog-Kraut thrill-ride buffeted by malevolent winds and torn asunder
with screams.” Wire
Coming from an act that met at a retrospective of cult horror director
Dario Argento at Paris’s Cinémathèque Française, Zombie Zombie’s debut
album A Land For Renegades is a suitably dark, cinematic affair.
The dynamic duo is Etienne Jaumet and Cosmic Neman. A free-jazz
saxophonist, sound engineer and electronic handyman by day, Jaumet is
the man behind the machines, playing a dizzying array of synthesisers
from his vast collection. Neman (of Herman Dune fame) is the heartbeat
of the band, supplying drums, percussion, noises, screams and sound
effects. On record, guest guitarists Romain Turzi (Turzi), Jay
(Friction) and David
Ivar Herman Dune swell the ranks.
Together, Jaumet and Neman make a sound inspired by their mutual love
of cult movies, the counter-culture and music by electronic and
Krautrock pioneers such as Silver Apples, Suicide, Terry Riley and
Neu!. A Land For Renegades places them squarely in that firmament,
blending jazz influences with far-out electronic sounds and
deep grooves. Recorded and mixed in summer 2006 at the Zombie-Zombie
sound research laboratories in Saint Ouen, northern Paris, it’s a
deliciously retro-futuristic proposition, like a postcard from a time
before house music hi-jacked the electronic music scene.
Tellingly, an early gig saw them share a bill with French Moog pioneer
Jean Jacques Perrey.
Conceived as a soundtrack to an imaginary film, the album follows a
loose plotline conceived by the band. In synopsis, it begins with two
fugitives driving through the desert who get lost after being chased by
wolves. Stumbling upon a ghost town, they become mired in a series of
horrific hallucinations, one of which (Nightclubbing) involves the
ghosts of David Bowie and Iggy Pop performing in a creepy club. It
climaxes with the spine tingling, John Carpenteresque
When I Scream You Scream, before daybreak finally brings relief. But at
the last minute, secret track J’ai pris les Rouges au lieu de Bleus
hints that all is not well; the musical equivalent of the killer’s
seemingly dead body mysteriously disappearing.
It’s very prog, but very cool. As a piece of work it succeeds on two
levels: it’s both a perfectly conceived homage to ‘70s B-movie
soundtracks to file next to La Planete Sauvage and Goblin’s Dawn Of The
Dead and a smart album of modern electronic sounds to bump up
against Justice and Daft Punk on your iPod playlist."
