			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Die aus Nicholas James und Stanley Fouracres bestehende Waliser Post Punk-Band Plastic Estate bringt nach einer Reihe an Singles in den vergangenen drei Jahren Anfang Februar ihr erstes &#8211; selbstbetiteltes &#8211; Album heraus. Die Musik des aus der Cardiffer Punk&#8217;n'Wave-Szene erwachsene Duos, vom Label mit Bands wie New Order, aber auch mit Rosy Music und jüngeren Semestern wie Lust for Youth verglichen, kombiniert Stilelemente der frühen 80er mit in der heutigen Zeit wurzelnden Stimmungsnuancen. &#8220;Plastic Estate&#8221; erscheint als LP und digital bei den Bologneser Avant! Records, der Vorabsong &#8220;Divinely Impaired&#8221; ist bereits als Video zu sehen.<a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/plasticestate.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-27919" title="plasticestate" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/plasticestate.jpg" alt="" width="498" height="497" /></a><span id="more-27918"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;The duo composed by Nicholas James and Stanley Fouracres have released a few singles since 2019 and we all know what happened meanwhile. It seems however that these past months of forced isolation and necessary restrictions only empowered the ability of the band to pursue their research for an evolution of pop music from the past. Plastic Estate have masterfully used this year to write ten new songs that shine a light on the duo&#8217;s impressive skills to juggle between the heritage of lost golden era and the pressing presence of the here and now, ending up sounding classic and contemporary at once. Not an easy task, if you ask me, as it is this rare to stand in the exact spot where you have a full view of the days behind you and the complete control of the moment you are in. [...] First single Divinely Impaired is the perfect example of how to dive into the imaginary mémoires of a sophisti-pop era and then resurface nowadays with a crystal clear modern sound.&#8221; (Avant!)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Die in Bologna ansässigen Avant! Records strecken seit einiger Zeit ihre Fühler (auch) in Richtung Wales aus und haben bereits einer Reihe lokaler Synthie, Wave und Post Punk-Acts der Cardiff-Szene unter die Arme gegriffen &#8211; einer Szene, die mit Chain of Flowers, Night Thoughts und Privat World eine ganze Reihe an neuen Szenestars mit den üblichen einprägsamen Projektnamen hervorgebracht hat. Zu den Live-Mitgliedern von Privat World zählen auch die beiden Mitglieder des neuen Projektes Plastic Estate. In ihrer ersten 7&#8243; ist das Echo von Klassikern wie Depeche Mode und Echo and the Bunnymen nicht zu überhören, gleichwohl die beiden Tracks mehr als Retrosound zu bieten haben und in den Zwanzigern garantiert ihre Fans finden werden.<a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/plasticestate.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21486" title="plasticestate" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/plasticestate.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" /></a><br />
<span id="more-21485"></span>&#8220;A new wave/synth act from the same city called Plastic Estate is emerging this year and This Place is their first physical release due on 7-inch vinyl and digital on June 19. On the two songs that compose the single, Plastic Estate clearly draw influence from the best UK new wave and pop artists such as Dave Gahan, Paddy McAloon, Roddy Frame and yet there is a sophisticated casualness and an innate freshness in their songwriting that makes them not sounding dated at all. Amazing composition skills for such a young band and a perfect balance between electronic dance elements and acoustic instruments allow them to pay homage to the above-mentioned masters and to be a perfectly contemporary group at once.&#8221; (Avant!)</p>
