Stereo Total

Stereo Total – Paris-Berlin

Operating within the lo-fi corners of rambunctious garage rock, synth-new wave and 1960’s influenced French pop, Stereo Total merge their international flair and multilingual lyrics into an album of quirky indie-pop appeal. Bouncing fluently between German, French and English, Stereo Total equally bop around between a variety of musical influences without losing cohesiveness due to their diverse sound. “Mehr Licht” sounds like the center of the dance floor; it’s built around a driving tech-beat flourished with chorus of Casio keyboard tones. The stripped down rock and roller “Plus Minus Null” shows the punchier aspects of the bands love of the raw edges of 50’s rhythm and blues. Think Bo Diddley guitar work combined with a drum machine freakout. With a graphical look of Russian Constructivism embedded within its cover arts as well as linear notes, Stereo Total use their art to push a subtle sexual revolution- a theme running in the background of this très chic party record.
