Quirky French ElectroPop duo The Penelopes release their new single at the beginning of next month. ‘Sally In The Galaxy’ is an uplifting, catchy track with a package that comes loaded with ace reMixes. Producers of the original version, The Flight, who apparently have zero web-presence, drop their ‘Galactic’ reMix and it’s a fittingly title slab of Cosmic Disco. Weighing in heavy with their vocoders and sweet soaring synths The Flight, who still apparently have zero web-presence, strip the gangly Indie side of the track out, layer on their own Sci-Fi funk and what remains is [...]
Parisian duo The Penelopes — Axel Basquiat and Vincent T. — are so heavily influenced by Brit bands like Cocteau Twins and New Order that it's no surprise that they now call London home. Though they've earned accolades in France — in 2007 they were named Best Discovery at the French Qwartz Electronic Music Awards — the twosome haven't rested on their laurels and continue pushing their dance-rock style, soaking up influence from mentors like famed French fashion designer Agnés B who has enlisted The Penelopes to play her fashion shows all over the world. Their hard work [...]
The Penelopes are back with a new remix for their super-catchy single 'Sally In The Galaxy'. While the original is a lovely slice of French electro pop with rousing chorus' and cathy vocals. Flight Galactic take the original and inject it with 20 CC's of indie-electro to create remix that is sure to get you fist-pumping to the deep thudding basslines and throwing your hands-in-the-air for excellent the harmonic breakdown. Single - ‘Sally in The Galaxy’ Out Monday 9th April 2012 On Pour Le Monde Records
The Penelopes make sparkly electropop, with elastic bass lines, lush keyboard sequences and funky guitars. We managed to grab the French duo for a half an hour chat. Axel and Vincent talked candidly about how they have found living in London, finishing off their album, the food, the night life, their influences and what they have planned for 2012. HBF: Hello Penelopes, how are you today? The Penelopes: We are well. We are drinking some red wine, hahaha. We really miss our French wine, but our friends came to visit us and brought us some - so [...]

Edwin van Cleef remixes the bits out of the chorus in The Penelopes " Sally In The Galaxy " and takes the track into a clubbier, housier territory.

The Penelopes are one of a handful of male-led pop duos that we think don't sound like they just crawled out the Simon Cowells rear-end. The Parisian duo, now based in London, are planning to release the follow-up to their first album 'The Arrogance Of Simplicity', which was release on Vitalic's label no less. So far we had the immense 'Now Now Now' which caught our ear with the C902s remix. Well today, we've got their next single and its been remixed by Leeds disco don Edwin Van Cleef. 'Sally In The Galaxy' is a full-fat piece [...]

The Penelope's have already caught our ear with their ridiculously catchy 'Now Now Now'. Well, now they're taking it to the next level of catchiness (uber-catchy?) with their next single 'Sally In The Galaxy' (possibly the best name for a track ever). It's going to be out in March and will have a remix from Edwin Van Cleef.
The Penelopes have another rather catchy single on the way called " Sally In The Galaxy ". It's not out till March 12th, so this soundcloud stream will have to do.

Line ups don't really get much bigger in Dalston... Which is a great reason to get right back on that Disco horse since I know a lot of you have fallen off after NYE and Xmas. This is your chance to quit being a pussy and man up! The Italian duo of Tiger & Woods is a great treat and you probably won't be seeing them in a sweaty Dalston basement for a while to come again. Backed up by Psychemagik, Bicep and the cheeky Slutty Fringe DJs this really will be one not to miss! As [...]
Monday Music's the one weekly post in which SOIWT dispenses with its London-only rule, and goes global. Here's this week's instalment: The Sandwitches - The Pearl And first for a musical sound unlike anything you've ever heard, courtesy of Hardly Art records. There's flickery feedback and a musty distant feel, like an illicit long-player recording from the 1940s; there are vocals so warbly that mums across the land will sing along; and there are tremulous organ swirls so deliciously [...]
Hona Costello - Erotica We featured Hona Costello late last year with the video "Shine" the brother has reached out once again with the single "Erotica" off his soon to be released mixtape "Penelope" sounding real smooth.

What better way to round out the holiday season and kick off the new year than to launch Kick Kick Snare's first mixtape of 2012. Yes, it's that bloody good time of the month. And just because I said that with a British accent doesn't mean we're crass or putting on airs...for it really is an awesome time for me every month to see the handpicked collection of songs selected by our four writers in four different cities. I always love seeing the variety between Kent, Wes, Ed and me. For the five months or so [...]
