{"product_id":"ciccio-2mo-bouc-rouages-vinyl","title":"Ciccio \u0026 2Mo - Bouc \u0026 Rouages","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn from a chance encounter in a Villejuif squat over a decade ago, Ciccio \u0026amp; 2mo have cultivated a singular musical language through spontaneous and genre-defying collaborations - notably around cult French band Cheveu.The duo brings together two key figures from the fringes of the European underground: Olivier Demeaux (aka 2mo), a pioneer of France's electronic avant-garde, leading projects like Heimat and Accident du Travail (Teenage Menopause, Bruit Direct), known for his explorations across lo-fi synthwave, spectral post-punk, and drone-infused textures; and Francesco Pastacaldi (Ciccio), a jazz-punk drummer and member of the explosive trio Jean-Louis and the angular groove unit Abacaxi (Carton Records), also a longtime collaborator of the maverick performer Fantazio.Their debut album 24 96 (The Trilogy Tapes, 2021), born from a series of abrasive studio improvisations, was followed by a sold-out show at London's Café OTO. That performance, released as Maremoto, captured the duo's raw, physical energy in it's purest form.Since then, Ciccio \u0026amp; 2mo have brought their visceral live act to stages across Europe - from Sonic Protest in France to the Meakusma Festival in Belgium, where their live set was released as Live at Meakusma Festival 2024.Now, the duo returns with Bouc \u0026amp; Rouages, a bold and hallucinatory second album commissioned by Hublotone. This new opus introduces three singular voices into the mix: operatic singers Léa Trommenschlager and Bianca Iannuzzi, and genre- blurring rapper Pauline Sampler (aka Frizzy P, known for her work with M. Cole). The result is a soundscape in constant tension - pulsing drum machines, organic percussion, saturated synth layers, and hypnotic, looping riffs.Equal parts physical and disenchanted, the music of Ciccio \u0026amp; 2mo traces a thrilling, unstable path through noise psychedelia, industrial memory, and experimental pop.Imagine Cosey Fanni Tutti rubbing up against pop, with Charles Hayward (This Heat) on drums - and you're getting close.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonic Highway","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51617819656487,"sku":"3700398734217","price":44.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/0640\/5927\/files\/4445181-3420527_466edf23-5ee1-48dc-9066-fb3daf93b608.jpg?v=1783661001","url":"https:\/\/www.corkyscoffee.com\/products\/ciccio-2mo-bouc-rouages-vinyl","provider":"Corkys Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
