Vox Low: Something Is Wrong – 12-INCH SINGLE

Vox Low (Benoit Raymond and Jean Christophe Couderc) take their cues from krautrock, vintage psychedelia, minimal synth music, and new wave. Far from a conventional electronic/club music record, but aligned with Correspondant’s cinematic, downtempo profile. The dread-laden Something Is Wrong” features B-grade horror movie organs, a low-slung bassline, and droning guitar chords. Boot & Tax (Claudio Brioschi and Cristian Croce) supply the first remix, while Javi Redondo’s rework seems to take influence from British post-punk revivalists. “It’s 1940 in This Room” has a distinct late-’70s-American-cinema vibe, with a Nick Cave-esque drawl layered over spiky blues guitar and loose garage percussion.”
