Moïse Turizer - Modern Light Modern Light EP (Lofish Records, 2021)
I don’t usually love it when frenetic guitars and synths clash. It’s not that it’s not my taste, gosh no. It’s almost as if it’s never quite right, like my expectations exceed reality. But this one I’ve gone back to a few times and will again. The EP is cool, but the title track is the winner. I like the mix, too, nothing’s superfluous and nothing’s overdone.
I have a love for bits and pieces of 90s industrial, which French duo Moïse Turizer touches on while it combines early-80s post-punk and no-wave with something mid-2000s-ish which I can’t quite put my finger on. But most of all it’s got a bop and a hook, and I can’t help but shake a knee side to side.
