Eglantine Gouzy

After all these years, I know that the blogosphere doesn’t have an attention span of more than a few days so whatever you present should either be shit hot or totally vintage, effectively rendering albums from say, 2006 out of sight. Today we make an exception for Eglantine Gouzy a lesser known bedroom pop artist from Paris.

Although she released two full lengths (debut on Gudrun Gut’s Monika Enterprises label) I first heard her music with a remix on Hauschka’s ‘Versions of the Prepared Piano’. Her 2006 release Boamaster on Ireland’s Osaka Records is full of short humorous electropop/folktronica songs that might draw comparisons to Lina Nyberg, Anna Laplantine, Kama Aina, Hanne Hukkelberg and Leila among others. Cheerful and creative pop tunes for short attention spans!

PS: Osaka’s latest release from Ribbons sounds interesting.
