Named later on a small, Hungarian-made motor water scooter, Solex is the design of Amsterdam-based record-shop proprietor and songwriter Elisabeth Esselink. Formerly a member of Dutch indie pop group Sonetic Vet, Esselink wanted to verbalise her musical ideas more entirely; later on purchasing an 8-track recorder and a vintage sampler, Esselink began recording songs on her own. Combing the racks of her possess shop for drippy records, Esselink took snippets of old records to make new ones, creating her possess style of lo-fi techno-pop. Solex's debut, Solex Vs. The Hitmeister, came out on Matador in 1998; Pick Up followed a year by and by. Low Kick and Hard Bop arrived in 2001, and deuce-ace long time later, Solex resurfaced with The Laughing Stock of Indie-Rock on Arena Rock Recording Co. Early in 2005, In the Fishtank arrived.
