With its distorted and loud-in-the-mix vocals, XYZ has a lo-fi feel to it - but the synthesizer sawforms and disco-feel to guitar and drums are tight. XYZ’s self-titled debut is a danceable and catchy effort from the prolific Ian Svenonius and Memphis Electronic, who you surely know from their uncountable other artistic projects.
XYZ is a group comprised of the renowned Ian Svenonius (of The Make Up, Chain & the Gang, Weird War) and the artist Memphis Electronic (of the groups NON!, Dum-Dum Boys, Die Idioten) whose murals of electrified Mao are such a sensation with the South European resistance movement.
Their self-titled record, XYZ, released on the label Radical Elite in the USA (distributed by Dischord Records) was made on the French Riviera in Nice and mixed in Berlin by Fred Bigot (a.k.a. Electronicat).
The record consists of 10 songs composed entirely of vocals and sounds from the latest models of computerized pinball games. Instrumentalist Memphis ran his electric guitar, bass guitar, and drum machine through said machines, while Svenonius composed his lyrics extempore and on the spot with the drama of the careening silver ball in mind.
Stand out tracks are "Bubblegum," "Hangin' from a Tree," "Where do you come from?," "Welcome back to regular time," and "Everybody Wants to be Poor."
