In a long line of artists contributing to raising awareness or funds for charities…. Our dear Oxmo Puccino has left his Jazz Bastards to create a unique track to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the convention for children’s right in association with UNICEF…. quite a worthy cause….
With a Remix compilation due for release on November 2nd, DJ Mehdi invite us to sample some song that did not make it to the final cuts of ’Red, Black and Blue” due to Copyright issues. French attitude forbid, DJ Mhedi gives the finger to the music business and its institutions by unleashing those forbidden tracks on the internet for FREE.
Don’t forget: The “official compilation” Red, Black and Blue is out on Edbanger very soon including remixes of CSS, Joakim, Santogold, Architecture in Helsinki and many more…
I had the chance to host one of their show in Dublin recently for the Let’s French … Festival and what a performance! The good crowd in a quaint venue made it even better…
Housse de Racket (Racket cover to be literal) are Victor Le Masne and Pierre Leroux ,Victor played drums for the Teenagers, Pierre played keyboards with Phoenix, they both played with Jean Benoit Dunckel from Air (for his solo project Darkel) and also Gonzales, Jean Claude Vannier, Brigitte Fontaine, just to name but a few.
Excellent musician and well known in the French Music Circuit, their own time has come…. Relax and Enjoy this new video!
