Colder

b. Marc Nguyen Tan, Paris, France. Colder may be the documenting pseudonym of Nguyen Tan, who began his profession as a skill director for tv in Paris boasting customers Commes Des Garcons and Kenzo among a wealthy list of best companies. Not quite happy with being a visual developer and video maker, Nguyen Tan determined in his free time to generate Colder. The consequence of this was the discharge from the 7-in . single ‘Shiny Celebrity’ in Apr 2003. A paranoid dub-influenced trip with the dark part of Nguyen Tan’s mind, the solitary was followed in-may by way of a 12-in ., ‘Crazy Like’. This caustic documenting demonstrated the impact of UK post-punk favourites Pleasure Division and in addition offered a respectful nod to contemporaries Loss of life In Vegas. Colder’s debut, Once again, just like the singles released on Trevor Jackson’s hip Result Recordings imprint, was an uplifting trip towards the dark part, with rebellious undertones and sleazy energy, along with a sonic palette attracted from a variety of affects including dub reggae, glitch-pop and Krautrock. Nguyen Tan created six short movies to soundtrack the recording, creating an audio-visual encounter to check his concert events.
