LIFE IN THE BUNGALOW
‘Sticking with one style isn’t stylish’. So goes the slogan for Bungalow records, quite possibly my favourite label of the past year. Begun two years ago by DJs Marcus Liesenfeld and Holger Beier (also known collectively as Le Hammond Inferno), Bungalow has released some outstanding and outstandingly different records. Last year we had the quirky Laila France/Momus collaboration LP Orgonon, which gave us some of the best moments in a so-called Lounge Core scene that was already boring and stale, and this year has seen more avenues being explored. Bungalow may have gained their early reputation within that Lounge trend, but as their slogan suggests, things progress. Thankfully.
