The Monincs/Zinade: "Girl On A Swing"/"Soon" (Duophonic Super 45's) A collaboration between Laetitia from Monade/Stereolab (whom I've just rediscovered) and Zinc covering songs by Kevin Ayers (ex of Soft Machine). You know the score, down tempo grooves, lullaby singing tones, sixties style musical instrumentation. Nostalgic pop moments.Having toured the US and Canada together a couple of years ago, Monade (Laetitia Sadler from Stereolab) and The Zincs (Thrill Jockey recording artists) fulfilled their promise of collaborating on a 7” by recording two songs from the Kevin Ayers back catalogue. The Zincs currently have a new album out via Thrill Jockey and Monade will release a new album, ‘Monstre Cosmic’, through Too Pure / Beggars Banquet later this year.
