DIRTY FRENCH PSYCHEDELICHS/SELECTED BY DIRTY SOUND SYSTEM

Description

A new musical trip offered by the Parisians of Dirty Sound System: the France of Pompidou and Giscard. A submerged world, largely unknown although idealized on the records of Air or Sébastien Tellier, whose ghosts we rediscover here: from the immense Christophe or Nino Ferrer to the astonishing Lavilliers of '75, from whom Gainsbourg might have taken a few cells to create his Homme à tête de chou. Guillaume Sorge and Clovis Goux, the two pilots of this fantastic journey, have managed to alternate familiar names and typical barbarisms of the days following May '68 (the trance gallop of Cheval Fou, the astonishing inventory of Alain Kan), ultimately sketching out a different country than that of our memories. A poetic, bold, pioneering France, which sought to hear without constraints, to delude itself and to become dizzy. The France of De Roubaix, Karl Heinz Schäfer, Ilous and Decuyper, Fontaine and Vannier, the Ferber studio, and Motors records.
