I have been really excited by the arrival of new label Eat, Sleep, Repeat: The Machinefabriek release sold out just on Pre-Orders alone so I suggest that you are wise and pre-order the new Eric Chenaux title before they are gone as well…

It’s a tuff call to try and sum up this gorgeous little ep to be honest as we have two tracks that flow with so much beauty and yet at the same time are completely oposite in style.

If you want to experience a quirky little folk type selection on one side and a Richard Skelton meets Nordic string arrangements on the other then I say grab this ep ‘quick time’! Highly highly highly recommended! – Dan

The idea with this record was to not have a side A or side B per se, not to have a front or back cover but just two sides, resisting the history of 7″s being that the B side is the more esoteric complement to the A side.

‘Warm Weather’ and ‘Le Vieux Favori 4′ stand alone without one being considered more important than the other.

The acoustic lounge-tinged ‘Warm Weather’ trundles ahead with a warm feeling as multiple channels of nylon-string guitar twang scuttle along just before Eric’s shingly vocals come in adding another beautifully reflective layer to the mix.

‘Le Vieux Favori 4′ blends electric guitar, melodica and spinning speakers creating a classical cinematic sound that slowly draws you in while unravelling a soft yet unnerving tension throughout.

Both tracks were recorded and mixed in January 2009 by Radwan Moumneh at the Hotel2Tango studio situated in Montreal before being sent off to Harris Newman for mastering.

A quite sublime 7. – Eat, Sleep, Repeat
