Angelo Spencer et L'Orchidee D'Hawai

"L'Argent" (IPU131) is the second release by Angelo Spencer et L'Orchidee d'Hawai for 's International Pop Underground series of 7-inch records. The first was "Music Is My Sweat (IPU121).

Although there is a Side A and B, "L'Argent" is really one song; this is a single that can't be left idle – tend to it like a re. "Part I" contains the voice of Angelo Spencer, it is calm and gently awakens you from a slumber, the urging guitar providing a tingle in the hands. "Part II" follows with a procession of handclaps, stringy guitars, a totemic drum and an echoplex that unspools like the celluloid at the end of the reel. Closed eyelids filled with spinning light, "L'Argent," is a vinyl Dream Machine.

This is Vol. CXXXI in 's International Pop Underground Series.

The digital version of this 7-inch is available from Bandcamp
