All The El Presidente´s Men

Named in honour of filmmaker Gus Van Sant’s indie classic Drugstore Cowboy, the dark, atmospheric British-based trio Drugstore formed in London in 1993. Led by Brazilian vocalist/bassist Isabel Monteiro and LA drummer Mike Chylinski, they developed a sound that gradually grew slower and dreamier, featuring languid psychedelic elements and waves of distortion.

We’ve enjoyed working with the duo for many years and are proud to add the majority of their catalogue to our roster, including the debut self-titled album from 1995 and the follow up White Magic For Lovers, released on Roadrunner in 1998 and featuring their best known hit ‘El Presidente’ (feat Radiohead’s Thom Yorke).

Track Of The Week

FOXY FRIENDS

Noosha Fox and friends injected some sophisticated glamour into the UK charts of the mid-1970s. Fox‘s ‘Only You Can’ peaked at No. 3 while ‘S-S-S Single Bed‘ peaked one place lower. ‘If I Point At The Moon’, taken from their 1975 self-titled album, is a lilting, sublime pop ditty that sounds remarkably timeless. The song is featured in the US drama mini-series A Friend Of The Family, which aired recently on the Peacock network.
