Hailing from Newcastle, UK, Francophilippe is a self-described maker of "hard fonk", a brand of funk that utilizes dripping wet slap bass grooves and thick house beats to get your feet moving. He first gained notoriety for bootleg remixes of The xx and Miike Snow, but has now graduated to doing official remixes for the likes of Pony Pony Run Run and releasing tracks with the help of Ministry of Sound. Hot off the release of his Action Hero EP , Francophilippe was kind enough to make us a 15 minute long mix which utilizes 20 tracks by the likes of Prince, [...]

Champagne Records bare back with another awesome, and free, release. Newcastle Nu-Disco producer Francophilippe delivers a whole album of funked up cuts. 'Fonkophile' is a collection of his works to date and perfectly shows off his slick Disco sound. The album contains 14 tracks and each one displays Francophilippe talent for combining the traditional smooth Nu-Disco sound with the kind of chopped-up Ed Banger-esque French Electro of SebastiAn. 'Fonkophile' is a pretty prolific collection of two years work, if I had one tiny, tiny complaint it's that Francophilippe can occasionally be heavy handed with his [...]
After our interview with Francophilippe, I would hope we wouldn't need to hype up his EP anymore. He has had my stamp of approval from the day he sent me the previews for Fonkophile. Consider this a selectively put together compilation of his work so far. In other words, if you have not heard of Francophilippe, this [...]
Yup, that's where I wish I was right now, on some tropical paradise. Why? I live on a frigid northern rocky island with constant wind chill and a 7 month winter season. But hey, I guess I have those 3 weeks of summer to look forward too... I'm going to cope with the chill by the only way I know how, with hot tracks guaranteed to move feet and generate heat. We've been quite busy lately, (working overtime to pay for Coachella :D ) so I'm gonna do a couple bulk posts to keep you on top of [...]

Francophilippe is an electronic producer who hails from Newcastle, United Kingdom. His name comes from an admiration of French culture. We are posting his remix of Amari's "New People In Town" it was part of a competition that ran a while back. We actually stumbled across it by accident as he mentioned he had done one via our facebook page. It was pretty an instant favourite for us. It's catchy, but slightly sulky electro which is slightly reminiscent of early Ladytron. Well worth checking out. Download - Amari - [...]
