For this one we wanted to come up with something fresh between the actual sounds and the current sounds-the things we were listening to at the moment, which was not always the case for the other two times.ĭo you mean you’re inspired by new types of electronica? We have to do something different but not too different. It was difficult for us to follow up something like that. The first one was fresh, different, unique music. This time it was difficult because the second one was very specific and very special music.
Of course we try to have a different approach for every album we make.
SN&R chatted with violinist Hugues Payen just before the band embarked on its North America tour. But with Robot, Caravan Palace dives deeper in modern electronic dance music, with some gritty, glitchy and dub-based sounds. Good luck listening and not dancing in your chair at work. Like its previous records, it’s filled with infectious beats and feel-good energy.
Tickets cost $35.Ĭaravan Palace is on tour promoting its third album, which is generally referred to as Robot, but our website can’t handle publishing the real title because it thinks it’s a malicious script! Here’s a picture:Īnyway, the album dropped last fall. Northern California will get a rare visit when the band plays the Fox Theater in Oakland on Wednesday, June 8. The group’s 2008 debut record went platinum in France, and quickly through word-of-mouth, its reach could be felt stateside. One of its pioneers is Caravan Palace, a seven-piece big band from Paris with an upright bassist, violinist, trombone player and guitarist as its founding composers. That’s the basic formula behind electro-swing, a new-meets-old genre with an international cult following. Imagine a cross between Django Reinhardt and Daft Punk.
