Lydmor & Bon Homme is the unification of two very different personas and well-established artists from the Nordic music scene. On one hand there is the eccentric Bon Homme, who is mostly known as singer/bassist in legendary, Danish disco-kings Who Made Who, but also as a esteemed remix artist, who previously worked with acts such as Digitalism (GER), Hot Chip (UK), 2 Many DJ’s (BE), etc. On the other there is the young singer and producer Lydmor, who has toured throughout most of the world both as a solo act and in collaboration with established acts such as Arsenal (BE), Alle Farben (GER) and so on.
Already a little while ago, Lydmor & Bon Homme have joined forces in a new project combining the very best of their respective qualities – a lethal concoction of pounding beats, captivating synths and hook-ridden melodies. The result: the successful album ‘Seven Dreams Of Fire’ that got released in November 2015.
The two are also known for their outrageously intense live-sets, which have already brought them to many places throughout Europe. We released a beautifully arranged accoustic only EP of a few songs from the album that simply shows Lydmor & Bon Homme’s magic at its best.The EP is called “The Red Acoustic STC Session”.
Paving the way for one of this year’s stand-out albums, Lydmor & Bon Homme deliver their unforgettable debut single ‘Things We Do For Love’ on HFN – a mysterious, moreish, instant pop classic that heralds a great meeting of minds. Bringing together Tomas Høffding, the singer-bassist of experimental Danish trio Who Made Who and Jenny Rossander aka Lydmor, a rising singer-songwriting star, it’s an intoxicating collaboration that draws on disco and contemporary club music, the atmospheres of 80s electronic pop and the cinematic strangeness of David Lynch in equal measure to cast a dark, sensual and brooding beauty.
Bon Homme’s husky drawl acts as a foil to Lydmor’s pure siren voice as the tune glides on a bed of sustained pads. Detailed, yet expansive, it’s a glorious concoction of contrapuntal synth lines, emotional chord progressions and haunting melodies.
