Something special for you today: 3 remixes of the multitalented French-British Charlotte Gainsbourg's Paradisco, off 20112s Stage Whisper. The reason so many remixes are out? Beatport is hosting a contest (if you're interested) with free submission, so undoubtedly you'll be hearing more remixes in the days to come. So far, we've selected edits by Upside Sounds favorite Le Crayon, as well as another Frenchman (and a huge one at that) on remix duties with Joakim and a Brit, Francophilippe, rounding it out. First up: 20 year-old Le Crayon . He needs [...]
Ha 25 anni e si chiama all'anagrafe Lucien Gainsbourg, esattamente come all'anagrafe si chiamava il padre, poi divenuto famoso nel mondo come Serge . Lulu Gainsbourg è il figlio del grande compositore francese e arriva nei negozi col primo album, nel quale c'è tutta l'anima musicale che gli ha trasmesso il padre. Non solo perchè è un lavoro che raccoglie e rivisita brani del famoso genitore in chiave moderna, ma perchè lui Lucien junior, mastica musica sin da piccolissimo. da quando il padre a due anni lo portava sul palco. E nonostante sia morto quando lui di [...]
Jolie mash-up of Jacko's Beat It and SG's Comic Strip by the prolific DJ ComaR who already contributed to the superb Je Deteste Serge compilation in 2010. Two tunes obviously made for each other.

Well, he ís Canadian. So Abel Tesfaye aka The Weeknd using French lyrics isn't that strange. On his new (third), free downloadable mixtape , Abel sings a few lines from France Gall's Laisse Tomber Les Filles (written by Gainsbourg) in his song Montréal. On first listen, I didn't recognise it, so hat tip to @Rvlanen for bringing this to my attention. The Weeknd is considered by many as a very talented leftfield R&B-singer. Abel is like an emo-punk singer making silky soul. Coeur de Pirate loves The Weeknd too, she covered his [...]
Once the famous Blue Note label was home of Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, or Thelonius Monk. Nowadays, its catalogue features jazz artist impersonators like German so-called entertainer Götz Alsmann . On his new album In Paris, he covers songs by Trenet, Aznavour, Montand, and others, in some rather remarkable style: The band, featuring an extraordinarily obtrusive vibraphonist, swings like a red hot hausfrau changing a vacuum cleaner bag, while Alsmann himself buoyantly chuckles and chortles, guffaws and giggles his way through the chansons, his personal highlight possibly being his version of Serge's early tongue-in-cheek ditty Cha Cha Cha [...]
Longtime FOFS (Friend of Filles Sourires) Roger Grund send me a rework of the ole' Je t'aime...moi non plus, mixed with some klezmer-clarinet. It could be the basis of a 'sick love song', as Roger puts it. 'I will consider to add any vocalist', he adds. And: 'Particle was compiled in search of the definitive rhythm guitar and is dedicated to the magik of Arthur Greenslade, Serge Gainsbourg, Michel Houellebecq and the now stagnant Circus Contraption.' So there. Work in progress. Let's see what happens next. Roger Grund - Particle [...]
I have a lot of girl crushes, but Charlotte Gainsbourg might just be The One . The singer/actress is super cool, classically lovely, French , and, as the daughter of Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin , she comes from a long line of cool, lovely French people. Back in 2009, Gainsbourg joined forces with another crush of mine, Beck Hansen , on her album IRM, and now the pair is back with Gainsbourg's new double LP of live and unreleased material, Stage Whispers [...]
Click image to download full album Sounds like: Lykke Li, Feist, Emilie Simon "Charlotte Gainsbourg - Paradisco" What's so good? Charlotte Gainsbourg was one of my first girl crushes. She's French, gorgeous in a subtle-but-sexy way, and happens to be extremely talented. Well, I never saw Antichrist , but hey, sometimes a girl has to make a creepy movie every now and then. Her latest single, "Paradisco," is a catchy electro pop song [...]
![[Indie] Charlotte Gainsbourg – Paradisco](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3905636_lg.jpg)
Surprisingly, there have been quite a few successful actress-turned-singer collaborations of late including Zooey Deschanel's project She And Him as well as solo albums by Scarlett Johanson and Gweneth Paltrow . The latest release along these lines is called "Paradisco", a collaboration between French actress Charlotte Gainsbourg and the always unconventional yet talented singer/producer Beck. This groovy track is ideal for lovers of nu disco and indie dance alike. Gainsbourg's ethereal voice perfectly compliments Beck's funky bass lines, crispy guitar riffs, and house-meets-rock inspired beat. If you enjoy "Paradisco" [...]
There has been a lot of time devoted to trying to figure out what makes Charlotte Gainsbourg so damn likable. Musically, there's little doubt that it has something to do with her albums' unapologetic simplicity. "Paradisco" finds Gainsbourg monotonically singing somewhat unintelligible lyrics over a pretty basic disco-pop drum beat. There's a few surprising guitar licks here and there, but it's clear Gainsbourg isn't trying to reinvent the wheel on this one. That's just her style; she simply finds a comfortable generic space where she knows she can succeed, inhabits it and makes it her own. Sure, it'd be fun [...]
New Charlotte produced by Beck. YES PLEASE!
"Paradisco." es un track escrito y producido por Beck para Charlotte Gainsbourg, el cual será incluido en el disco "Stage Whispers" de la artista. Se trata de una canción un tanto dance, pero con elementos del estilo de Beck y el toque brillante de la cantante. Te dejamos este tema, junto con 2 canciones más de la francesa producidas por el "Loser" más famoso del rock para el EP de la misma artista ("Terrible Angels"). Paradisco by planned_obsolescence Esto es "Terrible Angel" [...]
El próximo 13 de diciembre (5 de diciembre en Francia) llegará a las bateas Stage Whispers , el doble LP que recoge material en vivo e inédito de Charlotte Gainsbourg , el cual será publicado por el sello Because Music/Electra , y ya podemos escuchar un adelanto titulado Paradisco . La canción fue escrita y producida por Beck , y cuenta con baterías programadas de el ex Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti y actual [...]
"Paradisco", new from our girl Charlotte Gainsbourg, is off her upcoming combo live/studio double LP Stage Whispers . Written and produced by oft-collaborator Beck dude, "Paradisco"s minimalist melodies and rhythmic figures would sound at home on a Broken Social Scene record from the mid-00's. If that sounds like your cup of tea (we're into it) than "Paradisco" won't disappoint. Charlotte Gainsbourg - Paradisco Charlotte Gainsbourg ( Official ) ( Myspace ) Rating 8.2

My guess is that this is some sort of an outtake from the Terrible Angels EP by Charlotte Gainsbourg . Produced lovingly by Beck Hansen , the track, entitled "Paradisco", seems like it strayed from the flock - a genuinely lovely pop song threaded with one of Beck's classic b-boy breaks underpinning the affair. Dig it.
Não tem erro: a parceria de Charlotte Gainsbourg com o compositor, produtor e ícone indie Beck (agora quase tão tradicional quanto a parceria da mesma cantora e atriz com o diretor Lars Von Trier) sempre gera frutos incríveis. Depois do sucesso de crítica do álbum IRM , lançado no início de 2010 por Charlotte e produzido por Beck Hansen , a parceria foi repetida em Paradisco , faixa excepcional presente no próximo lançamento de Charlotte , o álbum duplo ao vivo e repleto de raridades Stage Whisper . [...]
No es la primera vez que el músico francés Serge Gainsbourg es honrado en un álbum tributo. A cargo de su hijo, Lulu Gainsbourg , saldrá la semana próxima From Gainsbourg to Lulu . El disco fue armado por el hijo del cantante quien además de interpretar la mitad de las canciones trajo a una impresionante cantidad de estrellas para que lo acompañaran. La actriz y esporádica cantante Scarlett Johanson ya había sido confirmada como colaboradora del disco. Pero una de las sorpresas más importantes [...]
