How Does It Feel To Be Loved? in London
Thursday,
September 5th, 2002 saw the launch party of the first release by the
Félicité Singles Club. The venue was the Brain Klub
in Braunschweig where Tom & Jane started to go in 1998. They went
there every Thursday to Bruder Zabel's Rumpelkiste sitting
on the sofa and, though just friends, called themselves The Happy
Couple, complaining about the music and dreaming of starting something
different. Ironically, they started their new era by DJing on their
final Thursday visit at a concert by their first signing, Les Aspirateurs.
This was The Sound Of Young Brunswick.
Things soon developed and, having recruited three fascinating artists from Great Britain, it was clear that they should hold their second launch event over there. After a warm up DJing in London at How Does It Feel To Be Loved together with Harvey Williams (who not only made one of their favourite records but was also a wonderful host, putting them up in his house) The Happy Couple flew to Glasgow where their warmly received DJ set accompanied wonderful performances by Roy Moller and The Catalysts at a happening in Nice'N'Sleazys on June 21, 2003 called The 2.4 Hour Technicolour Dream.
