Few Debut records promise a great future. With all due modesty, laFayette's „Sputnik“ is such a record. Apparently effortlessly, the duo transcends genre boundaries and upends the traditions that rule Electronica terrain. Five tracks that will surprise their listeners over and over again. Five tracks to impress the mind, the soul and the body.
Since their launch in 2009 the two Basel boys Jascha Dormann and Simon Hauswirth have found their place in the Swiss Electronica scene. Suprisingly, the two sound designers’ formula for success is pretty simple: create dance music with an attitude, mix it with a dash of soulfulness and two or three pinches of passion.
Each of their shows – whether at the Basel Bscene Festival or at the Lethargy in Zurich – wins them a growing fanbase. Rightfully so – laFayette have developed an unusual originality for such a „young“ act.
