Kas Produkt was a key figure in the French scene at the beginning of the '80s. They proved it was possible to sing in English and have success in other countries, but they were also responsible for the birth of an electronic pop scene. Candidate emerged in 1983 from Nancy, the home-town of both Kas Produkt and Oto. The boy/girl duo (the same formula as Kas Produkt) released their first cassette in 1984 on Permis De Construire (Nox, Geinst Nait, Muslimgauze, Zero Kama) to be shortly followed by a split 7'' with Gangrene. In 1987 they released their debut (and only) album for local label Dum Dum Records. Side by Side was really well-received and the band played a lot of gigs to support it in France, Belgium, Switzerland, and even Poland (more than 100 concerts during their career). Side by Side is now reissued for the first time and has been entirely remastered by Anders Post. For fans of Deux, Moderne, Kas Produkt, Martin Dupont, Dark Day, etc. First pressing on solid blue vinyl -- limited edition. Printed inner-sleeve. Includes a download coupon.
