Here we are. After the great success of our fourth release (Danton Eeprom’s Face Control), we wanted to find
something very special for your ears. First of all, we need to tell you about the story of this record. A few months ago, in the London-based “Bancal Bancal” recording studio, Ivan Smagghe and Danton Eeprom have chosen the moniker of “La Horse” to produce tracks together. After their acclaimed remix on KilltheDj, this is their first proper Ep, out on Fondation.
“Cyanide and happiness” is a baroque tune, somewhere between mutant house and psychedelic rock.
Strange voices, tortured guitars, pumpin’ bass, and silly organs are some of the creatures that you’ll meet during this spaced-out trip. It’s rough, hot and mental, reflecting Smagghe and Eeprom way of seeing music, free from codes and beyond genres. To make a long story short, be sure it’s gonna divide the critics and the audience, so take it or leave it : “Cyanide and happinness” is uncompromisingly unique.
On the flip, Danton Eeprom delivers a monster remix, based on his trademark vicious beats. In an obsessive
atmosphere, dark bells, echoes and haunted sounds are waiting for a fat bass coming straight from hell to take over.
Don’t hesitate, dive into Danton’s ivy world, a real poison dealer.
