French Boutik

Front Pop (red)

After a few months of intense composing, the Boutik recorded in an intense week at Yeah!Yeah!Yeah! Studios Hamburg and is proud to present 10 single-worthy brand new compositions including crowd funding singles Le Mac and Hitch a Ride as well as one cover song, Je Ne Suis Là by Franoise Hardy, which is reworked in surprising but fitting Ennio Morricone style. And the rest of the 11 song album? Well as usual it is difficult to describe: As Shindig Magazine puts it: "They call it PopModerniste. I call it bloody marvelous." What exactly is Pop Moderniste? A unique combination of influences ranging from 60s standards like Dutronc and the Kinks, to early punk and powerpop from XTC and the Jam, but with all the French Boutik trademarks : Unusual but catchy melodies, sharp French and English lyrics, strong harmonies, chiming and slightly psychedelic guitar and assertive bass and drums, all underscored with smooth Wurlitzer and Hammond organ sounds courtesy of guest Popincourt.
