Details
EL GRAN CHUFLE is the mythical yeti like creature that haunts the mountainous environs near Santiago, Chile and fabled to have devoured many a tourist who has strayed from the path whilst in search of late night entertainment. It is also the name of the enigmatic new project of MEMO DUMAY (Panico, TRema). Enlisting a cast of mysterious collaborators from Chile, Australia, and Paris and utilizing a myriad selection of weird instruments: farfisa, theremin, xylophone, bass, drums and guitar, not to mention the sublime vocals of Georgina Treloar, the debut recording 'WAITECAS' comes to you here: a 9-track peculiar that features handcrafted surf-noir instrumentals, motorik outer-space improvisations, hypnotic dream pop grooves and acid-drenched easy-listening. Mixed by Acid Pauli of The Notwist. This is Morricone meets the B-52s in the studio with Conny Plank, a weird dream of gaucho's drinking root beer spiked with acid whilst masked wrestlers dance the tango through the flames. 'Waitecas' comes in a limited run of 300 LPs. El Gran Chufle play a launch party at The Old Blue Last, London on 20th March alongside BOOZE.
