Foxtrott 
The Deer Tracks & Magic Wands



Foxtrott, c’est Marie-Hélène L. Delorme, musicienne, productrice et bidouilleuse. Quand elle ne travaille pas sur son premier album, elle remixe des chansons des Montréalais Bernard Adamus, Lesbians on Ecstasy, Random Recipe et Think About Life. Sans être tout à fait downtempo ni tout à fait pop, la musique de Foxtrott se situe quelque part entre les deux pôles et se distingue par ses beats appuyés et son enrobage ténébreux. Le tout est rehaussé par la voix parfois angélique, parfois intense de Miss Delorme.Foxtrott est encore peu connue mais autant de talent ne peut demeurer obscur très longtemps. À suivre.


The Deer Tracks
The Deer Tracks are a Northern Light Electronica duo from Sweden, and if they aren’t recording in one woodland cabin or another, they’re off-duty in their tiny hometown of Gävle, best known for burning an effigy of a goat every Christmas.

At some point, The Deer Tracks will do what Sigur Ros did and explode in to the mainstream. Yes, Sigur Ros, Bjork and Amiina are from Iceland, but for some reason, that part of the world seems to produce the most gorgeous selection of songs, glistening in the most magical sounding melodies and throbbing in beats, switching to the fragile and delicate. Sweden must be the next country to continue this trend.


Magic Wands
‘Space’ is the first single from the band's debut full-length, Aloha Moon, and it's a sexy and propulsive stunner. Dexy and Chris Valentine build an atmospheric and cutting guitar soundscape that beautifully foreground's the former's compellingly stoic vocal. It's just a really cool song, suggestive of the darker side of '80s pop and brighter side of falling in love.”
