Search - Immaculate Machine :: Les Uns Mais Pas Les Autres

"Together for a scant three years, Victoria indie trio Immaculate Machine sounds remarkably cohesive and fearlessly energetic ... With guitarist Brooke Gallupe and drummer Luke Kozlowski switching off vocal duties with able-voiced keyboardist Kathryn Calder, the he said/she said dynamic makes for a charming listen." -- Eye Weekly Since the release of Mint Records debut Ones and Zeros, Immaculate Machine has taken on a relentless touring schedule, playing for audiences in the UK, France, Holland, Canada, and the US. Immaculate Machine recently spent some time living in Montreal, and Brooke Gallupe received a degree in French Literature at the University of Victoria. During this time, an impulsive feeling struck the band members, who decided to reinterpret some of the songs from Ones and Zeros. Choosing the songs to reinterpret proved to be an interesting experience for the band. Initially there were some musical hurdles to be dealt with, and having to change the vocal structures to accommodate the translation led to the introduction of some new musical styles. This changed some of the songs into more laid-back performances--even a hint of lounge in some cases! The result is Les Uns Mais Pas Les Autres, an imaginative take on some of Immaculate Machine's existing songs that takes the familiar chords of live show favorites such as "Broken Ship" and "So Cynical" and turns them into new experiences both musically and linguistically.
