14 Tracks, 35 minutes. The 1000 People Softcore Tourist People Club is the first release for Gangpol & Mit on Ipecac. Gangpol & Mit formed in 2002 and are French duo Guillaume Castagne and Sylvain Quement. Featuring Freeka Tet on "From Your House To The Universe".
The 1000 Softcore Tourist People Club is fourteen tracks of mutant synthetic pop, blending virtual orchestra fantasies, cinematic soft disco, exotica tourism and digital lyricism.
As a music and graphic duet, Gangpol & Mit have jointly developed since 2002 a peculiar universe of digital pop inhabited by colourful and geometrical characters.
Their sonic and visual world find its roots and echoes the humour of duos like Yello or Sparks, hybrid arrangements of the French François de Roubaix, and narrative sides of cartoon and graphic novel classics, occasionally re-appropriating moods and tips from many adventurous music styles: digital cumbia, shibuya-kei, synthetic funk or disco dangdut.
After the release of this record, a new multiscreen AV live project is planned for autumn 2011.
Featuring Freeka Tet on ‘From Your House To The Universe’ track.
