Kap Bambino Live Dates

• 8th May 2009

‘Dead Lazers’ is the second single to be taken from Kap Bambino’s forthcoming third album ‘Blacklist’. It’s another slice of deranged noise pop from the Bordeaux duo Caroline Martial and Orion Bouvier – all maddening melodies and propulsive head-nod rhythms.

This latest offering from the analogue punk pairing finds front woman Caroline’s vocals at their most jagged, insolently attacking the sensory system, backed up by a blitzkrieg of synths and drumbeats. The CD sees the original album version of the track complimented with a phenomenal remix package including French hip hop crew and former DMC Technics World Team Champions ‘Birdy Nam Nam’ and Kap’s very own Orion toying with his own production mastery to deliver a digital orchestra version of ‘Dead Lazers under the name ‘Warsaw Orchestra’. There’s also a brilliant bouncy trip remix by ‘Candie Hank’, aka the genius German artist Patric Catani, and lastly up and coming producer/ remixer ‘Maton’ (who recently remixed Metronomy, Les Rita Mitsouko and Birdy Nam Nam) is also on hand to provide a succulent re-working of the single.

The band recently performed at SXSW and made it their own with mesmerising high octane shows; Caroline a ball of manic energy bouncing around the stage and crowd surfing into the equally manic throng of frenzied and adoring worshippers.

If you haven’t yet experienced the awesomeness of Kap Bambino live you can catch them in June when they return to these shores to celebrate the release of ‘Dead Lazers’ and ‘Blacklist’ with a UK tour and select festival appearances:
