Bonnie & Klein – Glam Pulse EP (Hell Yeah Recordings) 12″

Due mid August

Greek duo Bonnie & Klein serve up an Aegean musical escape with their new Glam Pulse EP on Hell Yeah.George Fountzoulas and Thanasis Skouzis are lifelong Balearic brothers who offer up their own soul-stirring take on the sound on labels like Music For Dreams and NuNorthern Soul. They are inspired by the sunsets and seas of their homeland and bring great imagination to their melodies as this new outing proves.’Glam Pulse’ sets a gorgeous tone from the off with wavy grooves and a peppering of percussion. As well as some singing guitar riffs, sundown synths and shimmering chords make this a steamy and seductive gem. ‘Haleakala’ is another perfect soundtrack to lazing on the beach and watching the sun sink into the sea while new age motifs wash over you and carry away your woes. Proggy guitars speak to the soul on ‘Horizon Avenue’ as woody xylophones and wispy leads ride on dubby bass and ‘Sunion’ closes with hints of melancholy – a lament for the final dance of a long hot summer with lingering trumpets lodging deep in your heart.Bonnie & Klein tap into real Balearic magic on this EP and effortlessly transport you to a sandy paradise.
