A great big thread where we discuss French House music (Justice + Daft Punk + et al)

[Canadiens1131]

So I've been listening to a lot of Justice lately, as they're amazing....but I never heard the We Are Your Friends remix until now. HOLYYYY SHIT!.

and to get the party started:

NEWS FLASH NEWS FLASH NEWS FLASH

The current leak of Daft Punk's Alive 2007 on various seedy sites is actually not the release; it's a cut-up version of their 2006 Coachella gig.

I'll reserve judgement until the real thing is released

I listen to the "cross" Justice album a lot when working out, it's great for cardio. I seem to like all word-less songs much more than those with vocals.

Though he's Swedish and not French, I think that The Field's album from this year is also pretty good if you like Justice's lyric-less songs (also good for running).

Yeah, I just lump him in because Justice is on Ed Banger Records.....

i nominate "something about us" by Daft Punk as one of the most underrated songs ever. that is all.

I've only heard one Justice song so far, but I haven't heard it enough to really comment one way or another.

Do like the few songs I've heard by Daft Punk, though-and the video for "Around The World"? Awesomeness.

I'm not that well-versed in French music-I've heard a few songs here and there, and a name or two, but that's about it. I'd be happy to check out more, though-any other artists worth recommending, I'm all ears .

I missed Justice at the Detour Festival because I wanted to get a good spot for Bloc Party (which I did, up-front & dead-center), so I left before Justice came on and went to the East Stage to move my up through the Teddybears set.

I heard Justice was amazing though.
