The Scratchophone Orchestra has enough to turn a dance floor. This group, which has built a solid reputation as a concert ambiancer, releases Plaisir Moderne where we find dexterity behind the turntables combined with a solid knowledge of jazz swing. Unstoppable.
The Scratchophone Orchestra invents in the clip of My Heroine a dance battle in the great tradition of the film West Side Story.
The Scratchophone Orchestra is composed of Aurélien Mourocq called "Le Gitan" (Vocals & Clarinets), Gabriel Bonnin (Violin), Clément Royo aka Dj Royo (Beats, drums & guitar), and Armand Delaval "Le Baron" (Double bass). These four musicians, as virtuosic as they are dynamic, have honed their formula and their repertoire well and make a flawless rhythm with their first album Plaisir Moderne which upsets jazz à papa warns the dancing spirit. The Scratchophone Orchestra is one of the new sensations of the French scene. The band offers an electro swing played live, where clarinet and violin cross swords with turntables and double bass. At each of their passages on stage, the audience does not recover. A great discovery not to be missed.

In a few days, the Scratchophone Orchestra will begin its 2018 tour with this first album that marks the musical maturity of the group. Twelve titles including ten songs, in French and English, resolutely anchored in the electric swing style. Mixing samples and vintage sounds in a more contemporary format with Hip-Hop and House accents, the group has particularly careful the balance between instrumental music and electronic production.
