Telefilme - Fade In, Fade Out (1995)


Electronic-tinged lo-fi Spanish indie rock, straight from the playlists of heaven. Light years ahead of their time and informed by new wave, synth pop, soft rock, and krautrock, Telefilme mastered an anxious, melancholic, but dreamy sound that hipsters young and old are still chasing after today. Perhaps most importantly, though, these are beautiful, inventive songs that would stay compelling even if reduced to their most basic components.

Track listing:
1. Radio Esquivel
2. 23rd Century Chase
3. Moroder
4. Il Diavolo
5. Alien
6. I Love How You Love Me
7. Single Bee
8. Teenage Siouxsie
9. Coma
10. Undergrounder
11. Tokyo Monogatari

  1. Awesome! I loved this record back in the day, a side project from Penelope trip's singer, though this is more interesting.
    Il diavolo, such a beautiful tune. Un saludo.

  2. Thank you so much for this! Is there any chance that you could upload their album Pocket Horror Symphony?
