The Books - Music For A French Elevator (2006)

I told you all about The Books last week, or the week before. Or at least, I told everyone who didn't know The Books about The Books. Because I don't want to sound pretentious, as there are enough people who come here who knew The Books already, who knew them for a long time, and some who even knew them before me. So that doesn't make me pretentious anymore, so I can now go on and tell everyone how much I love this little, tiny EP they made in 2006.

This EP is just a collection of 'found sounds', funny fragments of coincidentally stumbled upon songs, phrases, and other sounds. Great work by The Books, because they always work with very cool samples and their music is practically based upon them, but on this EP they take it a step further: they let the sample be the song. Check, it, out!

you'll never be alone

I remember a record called "expertise" with the song Hiro Hito, is it the same band?
The same day i bought Eyeless in Gaza 's first record "Photograph as memories"and loved the song "Speech rapid fire".
