laFayette are playing live again, catch them this week in Zurich, Berne, Chur and Yverdon with Belfast FM and Starfucker!
Welcome, Octanone!
We are very happy to announce the birth of Octanone! Well, not his birth, exactly, Lucien Montandon aka Octanone has been around for a while, but he has just released his debut EP, “Früener”, with a little help from us, and he will join our lovely family!
His music fuses wicked, danceable rhythms with his native Swiss German tongue – something no other artist has ventured into before, as far as we know. Octanone is a daredevil, so to speak, but listening to “Früener” you have to ask yourself: Why has nobody thought of this earlier?
Check out Octanone in all his beauty here! And like him on Facebook!
laFayette – Heavy Rain (SPHNX/I Remix)
laFayette have been remixed! Actually, they’ve been reworked before, but this here is the first “official” remix off of the “Sputnik” EP (which you can buy at your trusted digital dealer). We love it for its darkish, post-dubstepesque vibe. Great work, SPHNX/I!

laFayette – Sputnik EP out today!
Say Hi to Sputnik, everybody! The debut EP from our lovely family members Jascha and Simon aka laFayette has been born today. It has turned out beautiful, big and is quite heavy, but in a good way! Oh, it also features the massively talented Basel-based singer Lena Fennell on two tracks! You can listen to it on SoundCloud and buy it right thurrr! Or in any other digital shop of your fancy. There will be special editions on Vinyl and digital with a poster artwork. More on that later! For now, enjoy the music!
First song from “Sputnik”
Today, we are very happy to present to you the first song from “Sputnik”, the quite frankly astonishing debut EP by laFayette. It is called “Light Breeze, Crickets” and is a four and a half minute tour de force through modern electronica. Funky rhythms, throbbing bass, dreamy synths and an exotic guitar that makes you think of Paul Simon, Graceland era. I won’t babble too much, just check it out for yourselves. “Sputnik” will be out on September, 30!

It’s that time of the year again, when during two days Basel becomes the capital of Rock: BScene is happening today and tomorrow. This means a weekend full of music with a sh*tload of bands (we honestly don’t really know how many and are too lazy to count them all) on 15 stages in the city’s finest clubs.
