About Me:
In 2004, Macha Kouznetsova, joined the band to play the synthesizer and electronic effects and to sing along with Thierry Los. The pair found themselves continuing in the footsteps of the most famous French duos (close to Hardy-Dutronc and not unlike Bourvil-Maillant). The line up still included Gérard Gacoin (the original drummer) and Thierry's brother Eric Los on bass. Eric had originally been the drummer in Thierry's first band DODGE VEG-O-MATIC (taken from the title of a song by Jonathan Richman) along with Muriel Illouz but that's history.
The next album could only be compared to the idea that "Acid drops may be sweet for some but sour for others ! It is a retro-futuristic alchemy which can sometimes come across as being shocking but that is what this album was all about. "Ca c'est Vegomatic" was released in May 2006, and was distributed by Productions Speciales, (now sadly defunct distribution company). Wanting to be more brutal by capturing the essence of their live performances, the album contains "Action" which was originaly the music that Thierry Los composed for HUGO BOSS Energise world wideTV advs. Same for "Bleuroserougejaune" for LACOSTE Special Edition box Perfumes... The Warholesque video for Quelque Chose was broadcast on all french cable music channels at that period.
Four visits to Russia ensued, then a distribution agreement was signed with Soyuz, (the largest independent Russian label between the years 2006 and 2008). Soyuz have been distributing the last two albums ever since. Macha has since returned to her beloved studies and consequently moved to Moscow where she now pursues her acting...
During the past three years, Thierry Los has done a lot of things... In 2007 he signed to a major with an electro-disco track under the pseudonym MONTLERY ! In 2008 he re-surfaced with THE BZZ, a punk garage duo with old friend Emmanuel Berthe, playing 20 minute sets of primal energy with songs lasting between 15 seconds and 1 minute. He also clowned around that same year when he starred alongside Vodka Poulens in the crazy web music series : ROCK VOISINS directed by Carla Andipatin. GAUCHE GUITAR and LINE ET PILOU are fictitious bands put together for the occasion whose songs will be digitaly released soon.
The solo album MACHA, released at the same time (2012) as "AUTO STOP", shows the results of their work between 2007 and 2011. Thierry Los is currently working with the English soul man MYLES SANKO, based in Cambridge and he is already working on the next Vegomatic album which extends the concept of music and images.
