Title: Escort - "Caméleon Chameleon" Lyrics and Music Video [2013-05-15]
Track from Escort s self titled debut LP weareescort Escort burst on to the scene with a string of critically acclaimed 12 releases that quickly became staples for DJs around the globe The Brooklyn based seventeen member disco orchestra founded by producers Eugene Cho and Dan Balis and fronted by lead singer Adeline Michèle features an incredible cast of musicians who have played with everyone from indie rock titans Arcade Fire to avant classical luminaries Alarm Will Sound Escort s long awaited debut LP is steeped in the venerable tradition of clubland s holy trinity New York Chicago and Detroit but it seems particularly reminiscent of mutant pop luminaries such as Kid Creole and the Coconuts and Ian Dury who somehow managed to translate their sardonic wit to the dancefloor By embracing the legacy of these classic but forward thinking acts they have yet managed to create something strikingly new The LP s opener Caméleon Chameleon is a perfect example a three act play about the French serial impostor Frédéric Bourdin set to a beat that s equal parts Michael Jackson and the Tom Tom Club The tracks Make Me Over and Why oh Why explore the musical possibilities of another era rather than simply trying to re create it The 1937 standard A Sailboat in the Moonlight is twisted into a lost Kid Creole classic The album also includes the definitive versions of their 12 DJ releases which have been remixed remastered rearranged and re recorded specially for the LP to complete an album with absolutely no filler
