EXOTICA (vinyl)

Description

Exotica, more ecstatic than exotic, is the clear manifesto of an innovative, effective, and cohesive group. Republik is on the march. The revolution can continue! Republik. A true, solid group whose second album is both a confirmation and a proclamation. A commanding and romantic universe, where one might encounter The Velvet Underground's "Femme Fatale" or Blur's "Girls and Boys." All the values of Republik and more. Like the "Exotica" that gives the album its title, a symbol of an ideal city, a utopian city based on exchange and mutual aid, an idyllic cooperative where all those disillusioned with a supposedly modern world would gather, a poetic model of the communities or phalansteries of yesteryear. A concept that permeates the entire album, where marginalized, displaced, uprooted, exiled, rebellious characters, or simply those in search of love, evolve. Also featuring magical girls and dangerous women, risky flirts and electric wanderings.
