Jersey brings the party to Paris
A room full of people, a horseshoe of synths and two brothers triggering every sample by hand. That’s a Jersey party.
Carl and Renaud Amiard launched Nothing’s Fake with a show at La Maroquinerie in Paris. Their motto tells you what to expect: “Nothing’s fake, everything’s live.”
Every sample, played by hand
Jersey make dance music with the energy of a band. The brothers move between instruments, surrounded by the crowd, building the songs as they go.
Watch their live setup in action in this party recording.
Why Nothing’s Fake?
The album takes its name from that live approach. The distorted masks on its cover play with the same question: what’s real?
Nothing’s Fake is out now. If the live clips have you reaching for the replay button, there’s a whole album waiting.
