Avantgarde Pop Wizard Manu Louis Announces EU Spring Tour

Belgium-born, now Berlin-based musician and composer extraordinaire Manu Louis shares a new set of EU spring tour dates in support of his latest album, Club Copy, which is out now to buy and stream on Igloo Records.

To celebrate this new tour, the artist is also releasing a new film by French director Yann Les Jours. The film features a live performance of “Sylvie Reviens,” a track from the Kermesse Machine (2016) album. This song debuted last autumn and has since become a stage classic.

Manu Louis’ latest album, Club Copy, brings us a futuristic world dominated by standardization, in which your place on earth no longer matters. In Paris, Bangkok or Hanoi everything is the same. Visitors are doomed to find the same street, the same shops, playing the same music, frequented by people wearing the same clothes, made in the same places… However in one of these towns, a small oasis of resistance is emerging despite itself.

Club Copy, a small, outdated photocopying centre, has been converted into an alternative venue. Here, each photocopy generates new variations. Because the equipment is obsolescent and its managers are technically incompetent, it is impossible to make a photocopy without deviating from the original.

Initially on the verge of bankruptcy, the shop soon becomes a new place of resistance for the freaks…
