“Pepe Deluxé without an acute accent at the end,” states James Spectrum, (AKA shaven-headed 35 year old Finnish scholar of sonics, Jari Salo), “is like a gentleman without a hat – a contradiction in terms.”
Spectrum is one of music’s mad professors. Not much interested in money, fashion, hedonism or ego, his band Pepe Deluxé have always stood for the purest sonic adventuring. Like his father before him Spectrum is an inventor and his latest album, ‘Spare Time Machine’ is the group’s most ambitious and energetic yet. The story of Pepe Deluxé is as simple as the music is multifaceted. Kicked into existence in the mid-‘90s by Finnish turntablist DJ Slow and his associate JA-Jazz (AKA Tomi Paajanen), their early underground hip hop adventures achieved a unique individuality when Spectrum joined. Signing to Catskills in 1998, their debut album, ‘Super Sound’, was so notoriously sample-laden that three versions were eventually created, each ‘cleaner’ than the last as it grew in stature and was licensed to Sony. The culmination of this era was the use of their song ‘Woman In Blue’ on the Levi’s Jeans ‘Twisted’ commercial (“Levi’s was sort of a second prize,” reveals Spectrum, “We missed Wonderbra because we were on a vacation.”).

The new album Queen of the Wave is just EPIC! I love it. It's still Pepe Deluxe but I would say they also improved a lot (which doesn't mean their "old" stuff is any bad. It's just awesome as well). ANYONE get this album. You won't regret it. It's experimental, offers so many different genres and you can just tell they LOVE creating music and playing around with music. One of the best bands ever.

This is exactly why Last.fm and the Internet rule - they introduced me to Pepe Deluxe. What a great band! I'd also like to thank Al Gore for inventing the Internet.

Finally! Their new album Queen of the Wave: an esoteric pop opera in 3 parts, has been announced. Look for that in January of 2012 on Catskills/Asthmatic Kitty.
