Future Equation Of Soul
Vintage

After vibrating organs and guitar foreplay arrives an explosion of soul. I am talking dark basement lounge music where cigarette air fills the room and musicians sing from old-styled microphones. The drummer taps away in the background like ?uestlove and I imagine the bass player chewing liquorice as he leads the melody. Check out Future Soul of Equation and their seductive song, “Vintage.” (DR)

For anyone into Interpol (the first album) or Sebadoh (the discordant rock bits, not the soppy ballads) try this band, from Switzerland. Although mostly instrumental, this track has a great vocal and sounds not totally unlike The Pixies. They’ve recently been collaborating with a girl group from Italy - which is maybe where the horses heads come in…(NM)
