This weekend's Record Store Day saw a couple of French acts releases a split single, Team Ghost and Anoraak, with each band remixing the other's work.
The single was a limited release of just 250 copies on blue vinyl, and if you managed to get one you were luckier than I was!
Team Ghost was formed by Nicolas Fromageau, originally in the duo M83, who released two albums, M83 (2002) and Dead Cities, Red Seas and Lost Ghosts (2003), before Fromageau left the band.
Relocating to Paris, he teamed up with Christophe Guérin and producer/manager Jean-Philippe Talaga and began working as Team Ghost.
They released their debut EP You Never Did Anything Wrong to Me on the UK label Sonic Cathedral in April 2010, a second EP Celebrate what You Can't See released in November 2010.
Team Ghost has just started work on their debut album, recording it in Carpentras in Vaucluse, in south east France.
The band are being brought over to the UK for the Oui Love Tour to play some dates co-headlining with Anoraak.
