Credits: Lastnightsparty.com Un peu de house à la française, avec des sons bien funky, ça fait toujours plaisir n'est-ce pas? Ça se passe juste en dessous! En tant que nouvel artiste de la scène électro montante, Bryan Shower me surprend morceaux après morceaux. Après quelques productions bien punchy avec Star Guitar, nous avons le plaisir de poster [...]
YO BOPPERS! Its Monday... you know what that means, more funky House music! First, a quick recap of Friday where I saw MSTRKRFT play in Vegas and kill it so hard! Here are a few pics from the night... [...]
As an added bonus here is our remix of the song "Smoke Weed Every Day" by Crydamoure Crydamoure - Smoke Weed Every Day (Hi Tiger Remix)
I hate people. I hate the music industry. I hate pop stars. GAH. This has to be the worst piece of shit I've ever heard. I want to fucking rip someone's eyeballs out. Okay a little harsh. But it's still pretty bad! So bad it makes me cry. HOW DID THEY GET THE RIGHTS TO DO THIS. HOW. Leave a comment to express your anger.

Crydamoure - Smoke Weed Every Day
Back on track and in our favorite year ever (the year I picked up Piano actually) 1997. This year marked the release of the quintessential French House/Touch album, being Super Discount from Etienne De Crecy (pictured). However, it was actually released a few days (really days) after Homework, so it definitely was not the first like many claim. Also, I'm including the first release on the label Crydamoure , a label set up by Guy-Manuel De Homem Christo of Daft Punk and Eric Chedeville. Discogs describes the [...]
Raw Man (known from the Crydamoure label) and Modjo are both ssssound favourites. So naturally, Raw Man + Modjo equals delight and nostalgia to the heydays of French Touch (and of course, Raw Man + Yann Destal from Modjo = Priors). An album is coming, definitely something to look forward to! Priors - What You Need (ALT)

Anyone remember Buffalo Bunch ? Yes? No? Well, it's more French stuff from the early part of this decade. And it's house music, to boot. I've been back through some records of mine again, and I have to admit there's some stuff I sort of cringe thinking I actually own it. These aren't some of those tracks, however. Well, here I have two tracks remixed by the Buffalo Bunch that I own. The remixes are of Modjo - they of "Lady" fame, of which the Harry "Choo Choo" Romero remix I used to play [...]
I was under the impression everybody who listens to dance music would know who Thomas Bangalter and Le Knight Club were. Well, seems I assumed wrongly as one of our readers mentioned that they don't know who they are . This is a most heinous musical crime that simply must be dealt with! Let's start with Thomas Bangalter. A brief synopsis, because brief is good. Thomas Bangalter is the son of disco producer Daniel Vangarde. When he was a teenager, he formed a garage band with a few other guys called Darlin'. THey sucked, they broke up, [...]
Hi 'yall, For this weeks Monday Mixdown I decided to do a live mix featuring french house bangers. Some choice songs from labels Roulé , Crydamoure and more. This was mixed using Serato Scratch Live and some really old and worn down Gemini equipment. Enjoy the gritty mix complete with pops, hisses and the like. Tracklist: Silver Bells - Galactik Knights Buffalo Club - Buffalo Bunch Santa Claus - Le Knight Club The Turkish Avenger - Sedat Music Box - Buffalo Bunch Untitled - Dj Falcon Intergalactik Disko (Dj Sneak Version) - Le [...]
Daft French disco filtering fun from a few years back... The Eternals - Wrath Of Zeus From 2001 on Guy-Manuels Crydamoure label
New year brings new music! A label that we are really excited about is Darling Records . Founded by Axel Le Baron and Julien Kourbatoff, Darling Records is a tribute to the amazing French house records from the 90's. Its no secret that we have an affinity for that sound as well. "Primary School" is the first release (vinyl only) on the label and brings you back to the days of Crydamoure and Roulé . In celebration of the release, Darling provided us with a mega mix of classic [...]
Ah. Truly. This is the future. Actually ironically it's the past, but it reminds me of the future. Filtered disco samples, sidechaining and driving drum beats combine here to create some of the greatest French House/Filter House/I'm probably incorrectly categorizing this but we all have problems with that so fuck it. Listen to Le Knight Club (one half of Daft Punk, Guy-Manuel de Homen-Christo working with Eric Chedeville) and understand why these guys along with Cassius, Daft Punk, Cerrone, Stardust and anything released by Crydamoure or Roule truly defined and shaped an age [...]
French Friday is back and it is indeed a mighty fine evening to re-launch the sucker. Le Knight Club is made up of Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo & Eric Chedeville . Guy-Man is of course 1/2 of Daft Punk and Eric aka. Rico the Wizzard is a co-founder of Pumpking Records (more on Rico with his new work on the Darlin' label can be read here and the bottom of here ). These two close friends started up the raddest, bad-ass French house [...]
Apparently the world is in love lockdown with Kanye West and still frothing over MGMT so this is where I come out of my cave (which, mind you, living conditions were terrible: I had to eat out of the kitchen sink for fuck's sake) and start to blog something that would benefit mankind. The first card up my sleeve is an oldish gem (circa 2004). Catchy vocal, kinky bass riffs that would make one sweat tears.. but most importantly holds onto that strong disco-house feel. This is what dreams are made of. It's the A side of [...]
