Papillon Rising – Dance 2 It

Knackiger 80er Sound, moderne Pop-Elemente und ihre Geheimzutat „Future Fatness“ – mit dieser Mischung erregt das zeitreisende Elektrofunk-Duo „Papillon Rising“ ein weiteres Mal Aufsehen in unserer Gegenwart. „Dance 2 It“ heißt die neue Single von Beatmacher EFF und Sänger P. Obwohl definitiv wieder ein Ohrenschmaus für alle Fans des 80er-Funk, könnte „Dance 2 It“ mit seinem unermüdlich treibenden Synth-Bass der clubtauglichste Ohrwurm des Duos sein. Anstelle von verrückten Zeitreise-Abenteuern stehen diesmal coole Dancemoves im Vordergrund des minimalistisch-modernen Musikvideos – lasst euch von P.’s heißer Sohle auf dem Parkett anstecken, dance 2 it!

Papillon Rising – Defenders Of The Gym

Our friends at FitX mentioned that some folks aren’t familiar with the gym rules yet, so we took it upon ourselves to step in! Turns out though, they don’t entirely approve of our 2046 methods.. Oops – maybe we should’ve clarified?

Unsere Freunde von FitX erwähnten, dass noch nicht alle die allgemeinen Gym-Regeln kennen – da sind wir einfach mal eingesprungen. Wir haben aber das Gefühl, FitX ist irgendwie nicht ganz einverstanden mit unseren Methoden aus 2046! Das hätten wir ihnen wohl vorher sagen müssen – ups…

Papillon Rising – No Roots (Papillonized)

Do you know Alice Merton? You’ve surely heard her bouncy debut hit „No Roots“!? Ah, her! Yes, her.
But we bet you weren’t aware of these fun facts about Papillon Rising’S „mysterious connection“ to Alice:

1: Alice appeared on the same episode of ARTE TV’s „Tracks“ as Papillon Rising did.
2: She was born in Frankfurt, Germany, where their time glider studio is currently parked.
3: They just finished their own version of „No Roots“, being completely unaware of the first two facts.

What does it all mean? Has Alice joined the Papillon movement? We don’t know..
But we do know that you can check out the extremely radio-funky cover of her killer track here:

Papillon Rising – Leading Man

To learn more about film making, in their new music video ‚Leading Man‘ Papillon Rising went undercover on a movie set, and couldn’t resist dressing up as some of their – and hopefully your – favorite movie characters after hours. Especially, but not exclusively, all 80s kids amongst you will love this homage to many movie and tv classics.
