notes
'85A' (Pop Up, 2007) is a DIY electro-pop cut from Yelle's cheaply-recorded debut, cut in a home studio in Rennes/La Méaugon. The fx sits over a stiff drum-machine four-on-the-floor in the mid-2000s French electro-clash lineage (Justice, Mr Oizo) crossed with 1980s French pop synth tones (Jacno, Alain Chamfort). Kept dry and slightly lo-fi to match the record's budget production.
