Daily Jam - L.S.D.

Swinging into my busy season at work and thinking of the copious amount of drugs i would like to do because of it.  Here's some French psychedelia from Popera Cosmic to put me in that right headspace.  Listen to "L.S.D." below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam (Covers Week) - Philadelphie Story

A few years back, Brian Jonestown Massacre recorded an album of music inspired by and imagined as a soundtrack to films from the French New Wave.  The record featured a cover of French psych rock band Popera Cosmic's "Philadelphie Story" with Soko providing the vocals.  It's awesome.  Check it out below, our Daily Jam.

Popera Cosmic

Finders Keepers does it again.  One of those Holy Grails of record collectors, the wild, frenetic, and hypnotic "Les Esclaves" LP from French jazzy psych pop band Popera Cosmic, which has been out of print for nearly half a decade, makes its triumphant return in August remastered for the masses.  The record, made with the help of members of Space Art, Guy Skornik (who would later make all kinds of wonderful sounds for Alejandro Jodorowsky), a teen-aged Jean Michel-Jarre, and Jean Rollin orchestrator Paul Piot, is a sonic freakout that would go on to influence folks like Serge Gainsbourg and Magma.  Some mind bending stuff right here.  Listen to "Poursuite" below and order the record here.
