Plastic Bamboo - Mon P'tit Bateau (Edit) by Mister T records published on 2020-04-27T14:30:54Z For this second opus, we are hosting @plasticbamboo a chill edit of a french rare record. Plastic Bamboo is not really a stranger to us, we’ve already invited him to record a podcast on our channel and we also played together last year with Guillaume des Bois from Macadam Mambo. MTT: Hello Camille, how are you? I hope that you are holding on in Paris, few days to go. PB: Hi MTT! I'm doing great thank you. There's worse than staying home for long periods of time. I'm kind of used to it anyway because I work in the film industry. These days it's just different because it's necessary. I mostly occupy my time watching movies, listening to music and working on some ongoing projects. I have a first EP of edits coming out on wax next year on a new label from Manchester. My friend Patrick Ryder from Piccadilly Records and Talking Drums is behind it but hush hush. I've also been working on my own label project for a year and a half now. All I can say for now is that the first release is an LP, and that it should be out sometime in 2020. MTT: I know that you’ve been part of Les Yeux Orange, can you tell us how you get involved in the collective and what benefit you took from this ? PB: I first met Antoine aka LeonxLeon back in 2014. We both had tracks released through Manchester label Red Laser and instantly got on. He then introduced me to his friends Raphael and Stanislas from Les Yeux Orange and I joined the collective shortly after. At that time I was mostly producing music as Alan Dente (my italo alias), and I didn't know much about digging, the club culture and managing a label. From 2014 to 2017, I learned a lot in those fields while having a great time with my friends. Digging old records became kind of obsessive so I decided to follow my own path as Plastic Bamboo. I haven't given up production but it takes time and dedication. MTT: You’ve started publishing edits last year, what led you to this ? What’s your objective behind it ? I first became aware of disco edits through Eric Duncan (COMBI Edits), DJ Harvey (Black Cock Edits) and Theo Parrish (Ugly Edits). That was back in the late noughties when my friend Patrick Ryder used to rave about them. Inspired by them, I naturally started editing tracks just for fun, and hoping to get noticed. Most of them are now lost somewhere in the black hole of my computer. Years later, Plastic Bamboo started with a youtube channel and a series of podcasts on soundcloud, but after a while I decided to pick up where I'd left off with edits. Editing tracks is a way for me to make the most of records that would otherwise gather dust at the back of my collection, and to share them with friends and through social medias.
