Ladies and Gentlemen: A Divine Presence is Floating in Space

Friday, April 11th, 2008

We’ve already written about the LP of Sebastien Tellier which is an ode to the bodily form of eternal love. One of the songs representing this eternal aspect on the album is Divine which is a funnily strange mixture of a stupid pop song, Pink Floyd and a rock opera. There’s a blogging buzz about a remix now made by Midnight Juggernauts from Australia. It completely restructures the original and blasts the whole song off to space. Soundtrack for the green, big-headed aliens lovemaking activities? Soundtrack to let God know how it feels to have passionate affections? Soundtrack for the International Space Station to grow a heart, eyes and shed some tears of loneliness? Another evidence of France and Australia having an affair? That’s for you to decide.

Sébastien vs SebastiAn

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

Sébastien Tellier is a French pop dictator who shares his label with classics of electro like Air. His 4th album ‘Sexuality’ was released yesterday. 11 songs about (or to be background for?) intercourse.

The track called ‘Sexual Sportswear’ already gained a lot of attention. Beside Donovan and Tempest, Ed Banger’s SebastiAn made a remix for it. It has an awesome rhytm and holds the dismantled song perfectly together. It’s not too long, it won’t become boring. It feels hard but the changes are smooth.

Ok, we can admit there’s something to the xenophobic stereotype that the French know a lot about love and it’s physical manifesto. At least, the album, the song and the remix shows this. Not much of an evidence but who cares? It’s nice to listen to the album thinking this way. The remix is just fun cause it sounds like someone making love to the original.
