By the time he was 14 year old, the Parisian Hervé Salters, also known as RV, and the man behind the electro-jazzy General Elektriks, was playing keyboards and synthesizers with local bands around London and Paris. Six years later, he had discovered the Clavinet, Wurlizter, Hammond B-3, and Fender Rhodes, the latter of which is highlighted on General Elektriks' debut album, Cliquety Kliqk. Salters' expertise with "vintage sound" led him to recording gigs on <a href="spotify:artist:6kgrtA0dlnVpWB6zjpXrRb">Femi Kuti</a>'s 1999 album Shoki Shoki, as well as tracks with Quannum Records members (and future labelmates) like <a href="spotify:artist:3X3DHASP1G1waqVoEDWMHr">Lyrics Born</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3JL0lynYrYucwjrv8lKfIm">the Lifesavas</a>. Salters recorded Cliquety Kliqk between 2000-2003 on his laptop in Seattle, Paris, and Berkeley, and it features appearances from the Maroons and <a href="spotify:artist:2iLlfLTMiFJQ6X5rG2vgUy">Lateef the Truth Speaker</a>, and is mixed by <a href="spotify:artist:42Np3r8zXnaKcjLQsQSjyG">Blackalicious</a>' Chief Xcel. ~ Marisa Brown, Rovi
