Hello dear readers, long time no post from me. Seeing as how I’m the last of the Res family left in Atlanta after Shaun’s exodus to NYC, I’ll be writing more frequently and will do my damnedest to keep shining some light on ATL’s little music gems.
La Chansons are the husband and wife duo of Greg and Carson Keller, and for the past few years they’ve been steadily releasing their material and playing live in that all-too-familiar trapping of many electronic bands: girl singing out front, guy playing laptop and keys in back. Which is all fine and good, but admittedly not as fun to experience, especially in a city like Atlanta with widely diverging scenes and no real center…..bands without an actual band tend to have a hard time here. (Judi Chicago being a notable exception.)
They’ve since added a live band, and are poised to become pivotal among Atlanta’s electronic-centered talents.

Res darlings Blue Screen Love Scene have remixed two of La Chansons songs, giving them their brand of creamy dreamy epic synthy feel:

Blue Screen Love Scene is currently on hiatus due to their bass player moving to NYC, but they sent us a new track regardless. It’s got a brooding, darker tone than their previous tracks:

Hopefully this isn’t the last we’ll hear of them!
Stop moving to NYC b*tches! ;)
