Spring is finally here, hoorray!!! It seems like those first rays of sun set off an inner party where hormones are dancing to secret tunes. If I was a hormone in spring, I would definately get my groove on to any song by Sebastien Tellier!
This french dude with massive facial-fur has been doing well since his album Sexuality came out last year. Besides making a huge deal with American Aparel, he was also asked to represent france in the eurovision songfestival performing the supersmooth Divine. Which he never ended up doing because 'the french' didn't think a song in english would be appropriate (pfff). His work before the slick-album is also very worthwhile. The Politics album is a fine blend of folky melodies, combined with afrobeats. Not great for the hormone-dance. But it matches perfectly the last part of summer where they would be too tired to dance, and would just want to chill.
Here's one for TODAY, the first day of spring, remixed by canadian superstar-DJ A-Trak (currently touring with Kanye). What can I say, this youngster knows how to do a remix. Get your inner party started!
