If you thought Paris had the
monopoly on fashionable French house music, So I Begin, the new
single from Marseilles duo Galleon should shatter your illusions.
They interweave big 80's synth sounds with an unashamedly French
vibe, practiced already by the likes of Modjo, Daft Punk, Etienne De
Crecy, Alex Gopher and Telepopmusik. The resulting mélange suggests
Duran Duran had much more influence on dance music than has been
acknowledged. Galleon - dance, drive, get the French vibe.
Galleon is the latest arrival on the French house scene. They are
made up of Phil, composer and keyboard, Michel, DJ, and Gilles, lead
vocal. Phil and Michel are natives of Marseilles, the city which is
home to the French Touch, Superfunk, Troublemakers and Iam. |
