FRANKMUSIK is one quite deranged person, with possibly an even more deranged haircut.
Very much part of the SUPER SUPER culture, he brings together fuzzy bass, high-pitched vocals, electronica keyboard with a touch of the old romance in him and an eye for those dastardly-catchy pop rhymes. Talking of his keyboard, he tends to like to be naked with it - move up a couple of notches on the far-out-o-meter [to pretend I'm from the 60's].
Quite unlike anything else, except maybe a much happier version of a Crystal Castles-Digitalism hybrid [now that I'd pay to see], he has signed to Apparent records and has released an EP on itunes. Forever self-conscious, he ridiculed the one abusive comment he did receive on itunes and went to great lengths to track down the user, only to find that they had also rated Popeye: The Collective Tales as "amazing". 1-0 to FRANKMUSIK and I'm sure he will be rising up the ranks in 2008 until that Popeye fan is a distant speck on the horizon.
Beirut has released some new stuff or rather some new stuff has surfaced on the internet the couple that I have attained continues along the same lines as "My Family's Role in World Revolution" and "Scenic World". When I say 'same' I mean same as I blogged about before here, still pleasant to the ear and something different to listen to anyway.
A Sunday Smile - Beirut
