Aufgang
Summer

Blue Note France

WE SAY

Aufgang is a critically acclaimed French pop duo, hugely influenced by the incredible underground disco and synth pop sounds of New York in the 1980s. Rami and Aymeric met whilst studying piano at the prestigious Julliard School in Manhattan and that classical training shines through here in the intricate keyboard flourishes and string arrangements that underpin this gloriously funky little pop nugget. Both guys have collaborated with the likes of Cassius and Phoenix and their forthcoming album (due for release next year and currently being recorded in Beirut, Paris and NYC) sees them drawing on their French/Lebanese backgrounds for a rather unique blend of indie pop, electronica and pre-modern Arabic sounds. This great track has been mixed by Michael Brauer, noted for his work with acts including Coldplay, Sade and Florence & The Machine. Summer’s here, fling the windows open and get ready to sing your head off to this, undoubtedly with a huge grin on your face.
