Description
Carrierre and Cikojevic approached MARCI with the idea that they wanted to craft hits—catchy and danceable, but emotionally honest and down-to-earth. The record was put together over the course of a year in a Montreal apartment reminiscent of a 1993 pawnshop, full of synthesizers and obscure instruments dating back to the 1980s. The songs were written on Rhodes and bass and then fleshed out with harmonies, guitars, samplers, and FM and analogue synthesizers. The result is music that touches on musical hallmarks of hit songs of the past, but still sounds sharply futuristic. Along with Carrierre and Cikojevic, MARCI features Mitch Davis, Rene Wilson, and Austin Tufts (Braids) on drums, and Chloé Soldevila (Anemone), Adam Byczkowski (Better Person), and Jane Penny (TOPS) on backing vocals.
