French Touch

After Gainsbourg nothing. It was more or less what the French musical landscape until the nineties. Difficult to find something that was not a traditional pop a little 'sickening reality or the occasional hip-hop, too localist but to really take root across the border. One can see that something is going to change about 15 years ago when a young Parisian DJ who had cut his teeth in Manchester is entrusted with the management of the dance division of Fnac, a real record label. Laurent Garnier becomes a reference point for the global techno scene and from the ranks of Fnac, that will change in F Communications, start out artists capable of synthesis attractive for a generalist market, first of all Ludovic Navarre with a melange of house and jazz St. Germain project. Open the gate, gained a new generation of musicians, is the invasion of the body snatchers. Related by an approximate a sound that has a common denominator in dance and in an abstract idea of โ€‹โ€‹pop, but each lost in his path, manufacturers like Daft Punk, Air, Motorbass send into orbit a nation musically closed and impose on the world the French touch. A dead giveaway beyond the stylistic connotation, poised between disco-funk influences and reactions ranging from melodic sophistication to exotica. A sound that has made school and look back through his founding moments.
