Parcels

Electropop
ElectropopSynth-pop

Parcels is a Electropop and Synth-pop act. Their sound grew out of Marvin Gaye, L'Impératrice, Rawayana, The Whitest Boy Alive and David Bowie. Those roots explain a lot about how Parcels arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Franc Moody, L'Impératrice, Poolside, Electric Guest and Miami Horror, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Thomas Bangalter, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 36 connections around Parcels, reaching back through Marvin Gaye and forward to Thomas Bangalter.
