Almost ten years ago, back in November of 2009, before Let’s Play House was even a humble basement-bar and hotel-lobby party, Jacques Renault quietly released a four-track EP on Hole in the Sky, an imprint run by Canyons’ Leo Thomson and Ryan Grieve, called Favicon , that was both a snapshot of New York City’s glitter-dusted disco-revival haze and the culmination of the first few years of Renault’s career through the club circuit. It quickly became a cult classic and set in motion much of what followed for Renault; it added some fuel to the fire that was Runaway, his project with Marcos Cabral, and helped ready the stage for LPH’s entry.

Long out of print, we thought it’d be fun to reissue it in 2018 as a Record Store Day exclusive. We took the original sleeve and label designs and gave them a minimalistic update, and then added a fifth track to the mix, “Time Machine,” as a bonus. Originally recorded around the same time as the rest, it’s a dizzying, strings-ladden stomper that’ll have your head spinning.

Tracklisting:

A1. “Norman’s Fire”
A2. “Can’t Nobody Love Me”
B1. “Time Machine”
B2.“Look at You”
B3. “Pianos on the Beach”
