From The Desk Of Phenomenal Handclap Band’s Sean Marquand: Lovefingers

Phenomenal Handclap Band is the one that was never meant to be: an initially loose collective of musicians who wanted to stray away from the show circuit and focus on production. However, demand for PHB exploded following the release of hit single “15 To 20,” resulting in this diverse group of musicians stepping back into the spotlight for two albums, including the new Form & Control. We invited Sean Marquand, one of PHB’s founding members, to guest edit magnetmagazine.com this week. Read our recent feature on the band here.

Marquand: We really love Andrew Lovefingers and Doug Lee (Lee Douglas) as creative people, music curators, re-mixers, producers as well as (in Doug’s case) graphic designers. Doug and Andrew go as Stallions when they work together as DJs. Andrew, on his own, used to post forgotten dance songs on his website for years, but he gave it up a while back. It’s worth a visit, however, to check out the DJ mixes that are still posted. I recommend downloading “Incan Blood” by Daniel Collás, my production partner and Handclap Band bandleader. The other mixes are great, too.
