EZ Basic

EZ Basic are a three-piece band from Budapest, Hungary.
Formed in 2004, the boys' primary aim was to mix electronic and instrumental music, but it was post-punk, new wave and the underground music of the 60s that left their marks on EZ Basic's sound. On one hand, the name EZ Basic refers to early 1980s computers/electronics, on the other hand, to DIY punk ethics: easy basic as 'learn three chords and form a band'.
In 2005 EZ Basic began a series of gigs in the most popular venues in Budapest, also played packed shows in Germany, Poland, Slovakia, played at Sziget festival's WAN2 stage, at Alan McGee's Death Disco, and received prominent critics not only from Hungarian music reviewers, but also from abroad (e.g. the German Britpoparsenal, Coast-is-Clear, etc etc.). After releasing an EP ("EZ to Say"), many songs and ideas were worked with in early 2007 culminating in recording their debut album ("Hocus Focus") in only 6 days in Summer 2007.
EZ Basic's second album ("Hello Heavy", out March 2010) is a departure from their debut album's melancholic indie-new wave music. The radio friendly songs touch upon more styles, and they were mixed and mastered by George Shilling, a well-known British producer famous for his work with bands such as Primal Scream, Coldcut, Soup Dragons, Bernard Butler (ex-Suede), The Fall, My Bloody Valentine, etc
