Feldup - "A Thousand Doors, Just One Key" out today, CD & vinyl
Written, composed and recorded over a period of nine months, “A thousand doors, just one key” is much more than a try.
Feldup’s compositions are hymns and solitary celebrations that beg to open up to the world. The young musician confidently wears his influences on his sleeve. Everyone will recognize them. Through these titles, we perceive the tribute paid to his illustrious predecessors. And this tribute, this recognition are the tangible signs of an astonishing maturity.
Album available in any good record store, from our webstore, via Bandcamp or online.

The Apartments new album "In and Out of the Light", out September 18th; available for pre-order
"In and Out of the Light" is a classic Apartments album, with songs, lines and melodies coming back to you long after the music has stopped playing. The songs follow a set of characters who, in the aftermath of loss or simply the changes that turn up in everyone’s lives, have gone looking for some other way to live—and found it. Stories with the texture of this experience float through the intimate, reflective songs on the album.
The album came together in a new way for The Apartments. Recording began in Sydney, at the end of winter of 2019. Working a few hours a day, one or two days a week, the album was finished in the summer, with the final mix completed the day before coronavirus lockdown hit Australia in 2020. The songs took shape impressionistically across the recording days, with details of melodies, fragments of lyrics and hooks determining the form—a departure from the band’s usual way of building songs upon a bedrock of bass and drums.
Peter Milton Walsh and bass player Eliot Fish worked with producer Tim Kevin in his Marrickville studio in Sydney, while French Apartments, Natasha Penot and Antoine Chaperon, recorded their parts in various studios in France. English drummer Nick Allum worked in London. "In and Out of the Light" (their 7th studio album) again features Chris Abrahams from The Necks on piano. The vocal and piano for We Talked Through Till Dawn were recorded live in one take with Peter singing as Chris played piano. They had recorded the popular Apartments song, She Sings to Forget You, in this way before. Miro Bukovsky, who played on No Song, No Spell, No Madrigal, again played flugelhorn and trumpet.
The Apartments “In and Out of the Light”: 1. Pocketful of Sunshine – 2. Write Your Way Out of Town – 3. Where You Used to Be – 4. What’s Beauty to Do – 5. Butterfly Kiss – 6. We Talked Through Till Dawn – 7. I Don’t Give a Fuck About You Anymore – 8. The Fading Light

Talitres welcomes french artist Feldup
Over digital interconnections, the musician has created a YouTube channel (now more than 150 K subscribers - https://www.youtube.com/feldup) where he develops a universe of “Alternate Reality Game” (ARG).
Written, composed and recorded over a period of nine months, “A thousand doors, just one key” is much more than a try. Beforehand, the self-taught musician had recorded close to nine albums, patiently going through a process of research, experimentation, questioning and appropriation of the tools offered to him. While this album should not, in any case, be related to the result of a process of creation in a period of confinement, it is clear that these songs resonate strangely during this time of lockdown.
Feldup’s compositions are hymns and solitary celebrations that beg to open up to the world.
The young musician confidently wears his influences on his sleeve. Everyone will recognize them. Through these titles, hymns and solitary celebrations that only ask to open up to the world, we perceive the tribute paid to his illustrious predecessors. And this tribute, this recognition are the tangible signs of an astonishing maturity.
Feldup “A Thousand Doors, Just One Key”: 1. Century Long Fire – 2. Falling Apart – 3. Attention – 4. Take It Slow – 5. A Little Less Cold – 6. Mental Health – 7. So Heavy – 8. The Spiral – 9. Almost Gave Up – 10. Stockholm – 11. Paris I Hate You
Thousand new album "Au Paradis", now available
A few months ago we wrote the following: "there’s no question about it: his texts, his compositions, his arrangements are part of our everyday life as much as they feed our imagination. By reconciling dreams and reality, poetry and lapidary texts, Thousand’s music aspires to seduce you, but also to make you think"
We would say the same today.
THOUSAND - "Au Paradis", now available, via our web shop, Bandcamp, or via this link.
"Beau Travail" & bon voyage !
