The original arrives on the French duo’s forthcoming LP ‘Nox Anima’ in early February

Maud Geffray and Sébastien Chenut, aka Scratch Massive, have been active since 2003. This year sees them return with another standout full-length ‘Nox Anima’ which was composed and recorded in Los Angeles and is a haunted world of slow and intense rhythms and vocals. It comes after previous albums ‘Nuit de Rêve’ in 2011, which featured the likes of Jimmy Somerville, Daniel Agust of GusGus and Koudlam and picked up more than 14m streams, and 2018’s ‘Garden Of Love’ with over 20m streams and syncs to brands and TV shows like Yves Saint Laurent, Lancôme and Emily in Paris. This new album marks a fresh chapter for the duo, who have already left an indelible mark on French electronic music with their dreamlike and melancholic sound that brims with poetry and cinematic flair while having one foot in techno and the other in cold wave.

Carl Finlow has been a prolific and innovative producer for more than 30 years. Across hundreds of releases and a variety of monikers, he has explored every niche and mastered the art of making his machines talk to mind, body and soul. His sounds have come on cult outlets like Avoidant Records, 20/20 Vision and Syncrophone, and this marks his debut on bORDEL Records.

His ice-cold and funky analogue spin on ‘You Can’t Hide’ pairs electro rhythms that draw from greats like Model 500 and Kraftwerk with the majestic vocals of the award-winning French singer-songwriter Jeanne Added. They bring a calming soul to corrugated kicks and snappy snares that cut through the rumbling, gritty bass to make for a cinematic sound. An instrumental is more stripped and dark, so the bass takes on a menacing presence.

Carl Finlow’s Remix of Scratch Massive’s ‘You Can’t Hide feat Jeanne Added’ arrives via bORDEL Records on February 27th 2025.
