Mes Quins [live]: synth-pop/ disco-punk
Electro-indie afterparty with Silviu & Ovidiu from Mes Quins.
Mes Quins:
Back in 2008, Ovidiu Chihaia and Silviu Gherman decided to start up a
band - Mes Quins, a synth-pop effort with disco overtones based in
Bucharest, Romania. In his youth, Chihaia, a precocious guitar-player,
had been part of various underground Bucharest acts (Pure, Guillotines
and Hotel Fetish), thus enriching the band with valuable showbiz
know-how, a skill that Gherman didn't have. Besides a passion for
electronic sounds, Gherman had been acting in various TV commercials and
writing books. In fact, Mes Quins' very first concert was at a release
party for Gherman's second book.
Following such an explosive
debut, gigs came and went rapidly for Mes Quins, until the two of them
lost count and in the haze of such success hired a bass player (Gina
Teslaru) and a drummer (Ovidiu Rusu). They're like family now.
In 2009, Mes Quins played gigs in most Bucharest clubs, opened for
Namosh, Handsome Furs, Noblesse Oblige and Kissogram, shocking the
audience on every occasion with their overtly sexual image and a total
lack of style to support it.
Mes Quins' debut album, Electro
German, mixed by Dan Serbanescu (Divine Muzak, The Pixels) can be
downloaded for free from the band's website . The first single,
Printeso, was featured in Romanian radio airplay charts.
"Mes Quins are one of the most interesting newcomer bands of Bucharest's underground scene". - Time Out Bucharest
"If you haven't listened to Mes Quins yet, it's a must, especially if
you're into an eclectic mix of synth-pop, disco-punk and
electro-kitsch". - Metropotam
"Mes Quins know how to make their
mark, being different not only from others, but reinventing themselves
as they go along". - iConcert
