Keep Shelly In Athens – Now I’m Ready (Loframes Remix)
Keep Shelly In Athens second album, ‘Now I’m Ready‘, is a shimmering collection of beautiful pop songs, dusted with a light coating of sunshine, magic and unicorn tears. Now the album’s title track has been handed over to up & coming Anglo-French duo Loframes, themselves riding high off the back of their recent Hype Machine topping remix of Miami Horror.
Eschewing their more recent dancefloor focused production Loframes take their cue from the original, keep things nice and easy, put Ocean Hope’s blissed out vocals front and centre and deliver a laid back slice of synthpop perfection.
No. 16: Keep Shelly in Athens – Now I’m Ready
“Not your typical indie effort, un-beholden to tempo and style, the album skips across genre tropes with ease, each track guided by producer RΠЯ’s singular aesthetic and vocalist Myrtha’s unmistakable crescendos.”

Video: Keep Shelly In Athens – Now I’m Ready
Greek duo Keep Shelly in Athens have just shared the official video for the title track of their new excellent album, Now I’m Ready, which features the musical talents of another Grecian downtempo duo, Ocean Hope.
The band teamed up with FACES (the directorial collaboration between Gareth Warland and Noelle Rodrigues) to create this dreamy music video. “We wanted to give the video a ’70s Ektachrome feel and took influence from the beautiful films and Polaroids of Tarkovsky and the photography of David Hamilton,” says Warland. “We have always been big fans of female vocalists and “Now I’m Ready” is a song sung by a woman about a woman, so it was a natural choice for us to develop a female protagonist,” notes Rodrigues. “We are very interested in strong female characters, so often we find ourselves building ideas around female leads.”
Now I’m Ready is out now on Friends of Friends. For KSiA tour dates go HERE.
