Aussie Band Parcels Record Live Album & Film At Famous Berlin Studio

Aussie electro-pop outfit Parcels have today released an in-studio live album and feature length film recorded at a famous international studio. 

The now-Berlin-based band's Live Vol. 1 was recorded at Germany's Hansa Studios which has had a number of legendary acts work within its walls including David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Depeche Mode and U2.

The film, directed by Carmen Crommelin, gives fans a direct look into Parcels' recording process.

“The magic of Parcels needs no added narrative if you’re lucky enough to witness them in creation," Crommelin said.

"I wanted the camera to be both passive and intimate, so you could politely observe from a distance and walk through the room like a friend."

The band say that Live Vol. 1 is "the perfect bookend" to their debut album released in 2018.

"A lush 24 track tape recording of all the album songs being performed in a classic studio,” the Byron Bay-bred group said.

"Surprisingly it still feels like a good idea now, which never really happens unless it’s the right thing to do.”

Check out the film below.

A worldwide listening party and live chat with Parcels will go ahead on Wednesday 6 May at 2AM AEST.
