A new musical
scene emerge... Called indifferently Neo-Disco, Cosmic Disco, or Space Disco, a
new style is raising from clubs in New York, London, Paris, LA or Tokyo.
Far from the somehow dusty sound of the
70's, the NuDisco scene reinvest the disco imagery, somewhere between abstract,
electronic, and dance music...more "djable" as some of the bproducers
say. Giorgio Moroder is not so far.
Discover the NuDisco extended family. On top of new and original “NuDisco”
productions, the scene integrates the many processes of Re-Editing. The idea
behind the Re-Edit is to take an obscure and forgotten track (Disco, Funk, Psychedelic
Rock, Early Electro) and reshape it, rearrange it, play with it, in other
words: rebuild it entierly to make it sound like 2008.
The ArtPack met five DJs/Producers from around the world, five emblematic
figures from this new musical trend: Cosmo
Vitelli, Mock & Toof, Aeroplane, Marco Dos Santos, Runaway...

Flairs is a 35 years old bass player who played with the greatest, ranging from Etienne de Crecy to the Hush Puppies and from Cosmo Vitelli to Alex Gopher. He tells us how he created his own character. « We can categorize me between pop and electro-rock » he'll tell us, but Flairs is much more than that. « Better than prince », his hit song is a powerful concentration of references but most of all, a jolt to Prince. The video clip is currently in preparation and guess what... Jonas and François, the two brilliant directors from the video clips « D.A.N.C.E (justice) & « Good Life »(Kanye West) will be directing… not bad! From the top of Paris, he told us about him on stage, his debuts, his influences, England, and of course, his music. Diffident and passionate, Flairs has bright days ahead of him.
Back in 2003. Somewhere in Paris, Gauthier meets Bertrand to buy
used music gear from him. They listen to each other’s early work and
decide to make music together. As their friendship grows, the quality
of their experiments increases too. Now in 2007, they’re producing new
material under the name “Luck on Strike“.
Their brand is their own blend of electro with grunge power. No static
creation process, no boundaries, that’s what you can expect from two
self-taught artists. Guitars sounds like synths and synths screams like
guitars.
Their influences are broader than electronic music : pop, 70’s rock,
disco for Gauthier, hip-hop, funk, music scores for Bertrand. But Luck
on Strike is also a live act : from electro mash-up to live play, they
transmit raw energy to audience.
