The perfect soundtrack for your own private Paris...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Paris Lounge (Audio CD)
With all the hype about French house, the equally brilliant but less frenetic hip hop and chill out music being produced in the country has been somewhat overlooked. This compilation fixes things pretty wonderfully, as it includes stand out tracks from both the uptempo and downtempo genres divided into two discs - Paris by day and Paris by night. There are names here you'll recognise (DJ Cam, a very, very old St. Germain track that's already been collected elsewhere) but the really excellent stuff comes from less known names like Llorca and Sporto Kantes.So what's it like? The Paris by day disc starts off gently, with some beautiful slow funk from Llorca (in a similar vein to Massive Attack's "Lately"). It gradually builds the pace through songs from vintage chanteuse Jeanne Moreau (for that true French flavour), trip-hop tracks from Le Tone (using the same Billie Holiday vocal Alex Gopher sampled in "The Child") and Cam, before finishing with some excellent Dmitri-style kitsch from Czerinsky. The Paris by night disk takes this formula (a bit of kitsch, a bit of jazz and some Latin flavour) and moves it up in tempo, and by the time you reach Playin' 4 the City about a third of the way in, you'll think it's Saturday night in Favela Chic on Rue Oberkampf - it's impossible not to enjoy! This compilation includes both retro and modern stuff, so it's an accurate sampler for the city itself - and if you love Paris, you'll love this too.

A mixed Parisian soundtrack,
By Mailian (Brussels, Belgium) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Paris Lounge (Audio CD)
This double cd worth of known and lesser known artists and tracks of the French music scene is a mixed bag (like Paris itself).Cd 1 is called Paris by day and features great to hum along tracks like Hum hum, The end, Doo you bop, Deeper, Chinese bubbles, Lovelight, Love God Weed and Natacha, smooth and melodic. Cd 2 Paris by night is less convincing as it only half succeeds to combine a more dance-oriented sound with the French cool of Cd 1. Back in New York, Blowin' drums, Salsa poumtchak yeah, Khalouni, For my mother and A new life are the standout tracks here. In the end this boils down to the makings of one great cd, the rest you get just for reference.
