no one's mentioned Justice and the Ed Banger crew.

Yelle, for sure.

Jacques Brel?

yeh and Turzi are quite good.

I quite like Keran Ann.

They were amazing !

At the moment at lot of promising 'new' bands/artists :
This is pop
March the 6th
Cvantez
MON
Porcelain
Kwoon
Asyl
Orouni
Little Red

or jacques brel.
also rans : stereolab.
and pit et rik. haha not really.

there are several French prog bands I love. As for now, France has oddly enough a completely amazing black metal/post-rock scene so maybe Alcest or Deathspell Omega.

have already been mentioned. has anyone heard Gojira? They are mind blowing!

Closely followed by Daft Punk, Francois Breut and that guy with all the onions and stuff

Sebastien Tellier
Daft Punk
MC Solaar
Laurent Garnier
SebastiAn
Edith Piaf (on Sundays mostly)
Abd al Malik (rapper)

or Yann Tiersen

what about french-canadian ?

Really good bass. Their last album has Tricky on one track.

Air
and Vanessa Paradis.

Serge Gainsbourg, France Gall, Brigitte Bardot, Jean-Claude Vannier, Jacqueline Taieb, Charles Aznavour, Jacques Dutronc, Brigitte Fontaine, Julien Clerc, Michel Legrand, Francois de Roubaix, Nino Ferre, Francis Lai, Francoise Hardy, Franck Pourcel, Jack Arel, Jean-Claude Petit, Anna Karina, Claude Francois, Phillipe Sarde, Sylvie Vartan, Michel Polnareff, Chantal Kelly, Christine Pilzer, Michel Fugain, Antoine, Les Problemes and loads more I can't remember

No question

Overmars, and Pitbulls in the Nursery both stand out for me, and of course, Ultra Vomit, just because they are, like, proper crazy.

Belle Epoque, and Duracell. But I dont LOVE them. I tried to get into Amanda Woodward, but I don't really like them so much either.

A French yé-yé singer from the 1960s, I love her voice and the garage rock sounding backing band.

She's my favourite.

Other than that, it's the obv. people like Air, Etienne de Crecy, Daft Punk, Air, Teenage Bad Girl, Surkin...

or DAT Politics
