Intro

Zombie Zombie sounds like a lost 1970s sci-fi soundtrack being performed live in a sweat-soaked basement club. The core of their sound is a relentless, driving percussion section that locks into a steady 'motorik' groove, providing a solid foundation for a swirling vortex of vintage analog synthesizers. It is music that feels both mechanical and deeply human, vibrating with the warmth of old vacuum tubes and the grit of real drums.

What truly sets them apart is their obsession with the cinematic tension of 1970s horror and suspense. They take the eerie, minimalist synth work of John Carpenter and the cosmic exploration of Sun Ra, then inject it with a modern, club-ready energy. The result is a sonic experience that is deeply hypnotic, using repetition not to bore, but to transport the listener into a trance-like state where time feels elastic.

Start with 'A Land for Renegades' to hear their signature blend of psychedelic electronics and driving rhythms. It perfectly captures their ability to build immense tension through simple, repeating motifs that slowly evolve into massive, room-filling soundscapes. It is the ideal gateway into their world of analog shadows and rhythmic precision.

Zombie Zombie are a French electropop duo. Their work includes re-interpretations of the music of John Carpenter and Sun Ra. Their performances include classic electronic instruments such as the Theremin. Zombie Zombie performed a live soundtrack to Battleship Potemkin open air on the back of a tug boat in the Jersey Harbour as part of the Branchage Film Festival in September 2010.
