Career

Le Commandant Couche-Tôt is the brainchild of Berlin-based French funk musician, composer and keyboardist Anthony Malka. After co-founding funk band The Hoo in Berlin,[3] he decided to embark on a new personal project that would mix his funk influences along with French pop icons such as Serge Gainsbourg.[4]

Le Commandant Couche-Tôt released his first EP, Le Commandant Couche-Tôt Et Son Magnifique Orchestre De Claviers, in 2020.[5] It received some recognition in various European countries, including the artist's native France, with French radio Nova playing his music.[6] The release was also noticed across the pond, with British music journalists showing interest.[7]

A new track from Le Commandant Couche-Tôt's second EP entitled "L'été indien" and featuring British soul singer Omar Lye-Fook, was released on Bandcamp on October 8, 2021.[8] A second EP, Une Histoire d'Amour Brésilienne, followed on January 7, 2022, also featuring contributions from former Jamiroquai drummer Nick Van Gelder and Brazilian bassist Alex Malheiros.
