The Swiss "Movements" (RLY000) Digi EP for sale



The Swiss' "Movements" EP is now available digitally (in WAV or 320kbps mp3) at
the Really Real Records Internet Shop for $6AUD. That is a mindwrecking bargain of a pricetag. Also, good luck trying to find this anywhere else.

Tracklisting
1. Movement Part I
2. Movement Part II
3. Movement Part III


In a time when everyone who isn’t Crookers is claiming to be a “disco act”, there is an insurmountable wash of pretenders. Adelaide trio The Swiss, however, are a legit live disco band who’s existence is based entirely on flavour and good times rather than the Cobra Snake and fitted caps. [NERDY BIT: They are a band who are getting Giancarlo Meo tattoos rather than googling Giorgio Moroder best-of tracklists]

This EP is testament to what lies at the core lifestyle of The Swiss: crisp and snappy drums that cause pregnancies, quicksand lazer-sludge bass, dizzy pops & flourishes, melody rays and synthesised strings that glide on the thermal currents of life. It’s as much a breathy telephone call as it is a mid-range Bordeaux shared between ensconced lovers.

Produced by Donnie Sloan (Empire Of The Sun, Sneaky Sound System), “Movements” is a 3-part jam-lover’s jam. A first-class ticket aboard the Jam Express, all the way to Jam Central, Jamsville, the Jamniverse.
