Inside Out - French Edition - La Disco Francaise Pt 1

Crème Brûlée

Creme Brulee, France

Ever since back in the 50s, France has been a fertile ground for genuinely out there (and oftentimes well dressed) music. Disco, house, french-touch, psyche, library music, folk, avant-garde, pop, new-wave, techno... the list goes on. Since lists don't do your ears much good, here is Creme Brulee, inviting you to revisit the classics or dive headfirst into the french electronic underground. Straight into the music that came forward from the margins and ended up moving the rebels and the bourgeoisie alike. Produced by D.I.R.T.Y.'s Guillaume Sorge with Patrick Thevenin and Clovis Goux, this first episode sets out to take a closer look at french disco. Inspired by the disco scene in New York and the sound of eurodisco in the age of Moroder, a crew of musicians from wildly different backgrounds, equally obsessed with machines and futurism, shaped the sounds of hedonistic dancefloors as the seventies turned into the eighties. For anyone who still thinks that France's contribution to the genre might be limited to Dalida, Patrick Juvet, Ottawan, and Sheila this show will be a welcome reason to think again, while those in the know won't need more than a glance at the tracklist to get their dancing shoes on. Bon Voyage!
