Scratch Massive

Born in the West of France, they eventually and inevitably gravitated towards Paris armed only with their love of the Velvets and Bowie and all things electronic ,and the hopes and dreams of the young, foolish and beautiful. They made their debut single in 1999, by 2003 they were hosting their own NAKED night in ParisThey released their first album Enemy & Lovers in 2003, followed by numerous EPs and remixes. Always being part of the French underground electro scene, they created their own label Chateaurouge and came back in 2007 with their new album.

Power, blackness, feeling… Here are some of the words that come to mind when you immerse yourself into the listening of “Time”. The new album bindeed succeeds to marry a cutting-edge electronic music to a robotic melancholy and new wave romanticism abandoned of any eighties nostalgia. Cut for the dance floor like for the living room, this record possesses even a vigour and a modernity that easily outclasses electroclash fusion attempts from the beginning of the 2000s.
