''On his new album French singer/songwriter Alexis Kacimi is delving deep into the realms of 70s electronica and pop - not without little hints of psychedelia - and does so with ease and joy. Recorded with members of Magic & Naked and Le Roi Angus and set to the poems of his musical companion Romano Bianchi, 'Panache' comes as dreamy and bitter-sweet, yet clear as the sunlight on the last days of summer.''

"For his fourth album, 'Panache', KACIMI has teamed up with Geneva-based Augustin von Arx and Léonard Persoz (musicians with Magic&Naked and Le Roi Angus). The album features dreamy synths, mellow bass and smooth production. Accustomed to guitars and garage pop (The Rebels of Tijuana), KACIMI breaks with his usual habits by composing most of the tracks for this album on piano, delicately dressed by Augustin von Arx and Léonard Persoz, who produce the entire album. These 9 tracks take us into a shimmering world of electronica and seventies pop. Set to absurd yet existential poems by Romano Bianchi, his pop partner, Kacimi lets himself drift off into his reveries and narrations with a clear, precise voice. Recorded in the Geneva countryside in the midst of a bamboo garden and an invigorating vegetable patch, 'Panache' stands out in KACIMI's discography as a real letting go, where pleasure was the central element in the creative process.

"Third album by Dutch garage rockers The Tambles! Ranging from Rhythm'n'Blues and organ-driven psychedelia to early 70s rock that brings to mind the likes of The Rolling Stones or CCR as well as The Stooges or even Television. Absolute must-buy! Every song a gem, all killers, no fillers!"

"'In The Hive' is rock 'n' roll at its best, expressed in punchy songs that are so catchy that your Chelsea boots will start to move during the countdown.[...] The Tambles sound spicier and sharper than ever, without distancing themselves too far from their iconic sources of inspiration like The Rolling Stones, The Kinks and Creedence Clearwater Revival for the avid listener. On 'All The Good Things' and 'Midnight Creepers', we can hear that especially well."

Kacimi's third studio album in collaboration with Le Pop Club Records!

"For his third album, Kacimi is surrounded by his live band soberly named "La Mécréance" (Romano Bianchi, Vincent Breza, Anthony Savarit). With this gang he revives his bubble pop garage guitar obsessions. After various singles ("Décroche", "Il fait si chaud ce soir", "Les Rois"...) and collaborations these last two years (Lionel Limiñana, Laurent Blot, Alexis Fugain, L'Eclair...), "Couronne d'Ephémères" slips into Kacimi's discography as a collection of power pop songs endowed with a grating poetry and brimming with slices of life that drive on an ever evident absurdity. What shall I say "a religion". A third album in the form of a hedonistic trip, where each measure is a pleasure finely orchestrated by La Mécréance, a freakbeat combo from Geneva with a surfy hipness and caustic humour.
With this electric quartet, Kacimi covers Gainsbourg with ease, plays with the yéyé and Mersey beat codes, while giving them a modern and up-to-date interpretation. 13 tracks where mid tempo rhythm n' blues is mixed with love ballads suspended in time (5 ans, Le Ballon songe, Dans des Histoires). Recorded in Christian Hierro's Back To Mono Studio, after the album "Gyrophare" in 2020 and "Asile" by The Rebels of Tijuana in 2018, "Couronne d'Ephémères" closes this trilogy in a direct and sexy yet unadorned way."
