champs d’or

it’s paris for us again next week.
mais oui.

and does that mean more french house aux latitudes?
mais oui!

straight out of our new manor (and with thanks and compliments to the chef- chris at gvsb) russ chimes has got his london mitts on les enfants francais, college’s track ‘teenage color’ which was already a pretty tasty slice of electro synthiness and garnished it southwark styles.

the result? it kind of sounds like teenkids in branded pastel leisurewear and centimes arcades in northern france in 1987.
from what i remember.

the vrai combination of phoenix-esque eighties froth-rock guitar lines and a dab of heavy daft punkiness - plus all the things i found enormously exotic about french exchange trips without having to stay with a weird family who eat potato at breakfast.

do yourselves all a favour and head over to russ chimes’ myspace for more of his stuff, if you’re in that kind of miami-neon sort of mood then she’s got the heat is what you need playing out of your ferrari 328. seriously.

and so with a paul quiche lorraine in my belly from lunch and the prospect of hopping on of the last eurostars out of waterloo on monday i’m left wondering, ah france… could i love you any more?
moi, non plus.
