Nicolas Fromageau, who made up half of the original incarnation of M83, co-writing the band’s first two albums (M83 and Dead Cities, Red Seas and Lost Ghosts) before leaving the group, will return with a new EP under the name Team Ghost.
Team Ghost finda Fromageau backed by multi-instrumentalist Christophe Guerin and producer Jean-Phillip Talaga. The debut EP, You Never Did Anything Wrong to Me will be released on Sonic Cathedral on May 3, and comes available as a limited edition black and white vinyl 10 inch and digital download.
Musically, the press release boasts that it “takes the M83 blueprint of electronica, shoegaze and cinematic, Eno-esque soundscapes and adds krautrock rhythms, the sleazy Suicide-like post-punk of JJ Burnel’s ‘Euroman Cometh’ and the stark synth-pop of the French coldwave.” That’s number 67 on the coldwave count for press releases this year, for those counting. Kosmische was on 89 at this point in 2009.
