James Ausfahrt - Party For The Arty People Arty For The Party People

Party For The Arty People Arty For The Party People by James Ausfahrt

3...according to our on Thu 08 Nov, 2007.

James Ausfahrt: 'Arty For The Party People / Party For The Arty People' (Fridlyst) Is a 22 track psuedo cabaret styled electro-pop oddity. It almost has the hallmark of a singer songwriter stuck with his pre-sets but with a handful of songs. At times very kitsch, camp and oh so intentionally annoying; with misplaced chords and keys and cheesy interplay between electronics and guitars falling in and out of place. Phil reckons it has the early charm of Baby Bird but in an electro style. I'm reminded of some sort of a teen crooner stuck in his bedroom just about getting it together to record all the tunes to his hard drive.


James has been recording songs for a couple of years now and he has built up a reputation of a crazy sexy cool lo-fi artist on the west coast of Sweden. Any of you that have been lucky enough to hear him knows his music is addictive, trashy and beautiful. James believes in the "one take theory" and has recorded more then 80 songs of disco, pop, rock and roll, old school electronica and new wave all in the lo-fi mentality. He's recording at home by himself with guitar, keyboard, bass and a drum machine, some of them are homebuilt. James is also heck of a driver, and hopefully he will take his
          

car and drive to your town for a show, because you haven't seen anything before you´ve seen James Ausfahrt. Don't miss his debut on Fridlyst a.k.a. open field, out in March.
