"New Music:"

Brazil gave us bossa nova, Tropicália, and baile funk, and there's a lot more where those came from-- as compilation after compilation after compilation continues to show. São Paulo's Télépathique have already toured in Europe, and now the duo are poised to bring their groove-based blend of electro-pop, rock, house, and baile funk to the U.S. with their new Love & Lust EP, on the way via Control Group. The best place to start isn't the English-language title track, though, but rather "Eu Gosto", which a cursory Internet search would suggest means "I like it." If not for the fact it's in Portuguese, a language I definitely don't speak, it'd be difficult to determine the origins of this solid uptempo dance-pop track. Opening with a robotic kick drum, a winding synth sound, and haunted-house creaks, the song soon adds post-punk guitar stabs and the matter-of-fact vocals of Mylene, who along with drummer, turntablist, and programmer Erico Theobaldo makes up Télépathique. Her words echo on both sides as live and electronic drums rise in intensity. The beats drop out during a clanging, alarm-like bridge. When Mylene's vocals return, they're even harder to understand.

Bio

Introducing Telepathique, an electro-rock band from Sao Paulo, Brazil. The band was created by singer Mylene Pires and drummer, DJ and producer Erico Theobaldo - aka DJ Periferico - who has remixed songs featured at the "City of God remix soundtrack album" and has produced Brazilian artists such as Otto, Trio Mocoto, BiD and others.

On stage they are like a hip hop duo with a DJ and a singer - Periferico plays the turntables like a punk drummer and the drums like a techno DJ. Mylene sings in both English and Portuguese. Telepathique has played several festivals in Europe including the Festival Hype @ Tejo in Lisbon, with Massive Attack, Diplo and Hot Chip, the Brasil No Ar Festival in Barcelona and the club Guanabara in London.

Telepathique will begin touring the US in August 2008 and their debut full-length "Last Night On Earth" will be released on that same month.
