"The perfect bachelor pad music" (Albert Bouchard/Blue Oyster Cult), The Beeps take rich instrumentation inspired by international film soundtracks of the 1960's and combine them with influences ranging from ska and klezmer to jazz and garage rock.
Bio / Background
This CD was nominated for a *GRAMMY* in the best alternative album category.
===========================================
When you got out of your black 1966 Corvaire on a damp night in the city, there was a flute and light percussion audible somewhere off in the distance. You got the feeling someone was following you, so you ran across the street in your overcoat to an unmarked night club with two colored lights above the door. When you got inside, spooky rhythms reached you across a long smoky room filled with people in dark suits standing still and dancing with their arms only.
The year isn't 1966, it's 2003. And the live band you just happened upon isn't simply an anachronism contributing to your personal time warp or a youthful imitation of a bygone aesthetic. It's THE BEEPS -- a unique seven-piece ensemble which takes the best of the past and brings it forward in a way that can engage a modern audience.
