Review
The French are many things--superb chefs, extraordinary winemakers, great lovers--but they are not funky. That's not a musical slight. Think of Air, Serge Gainsbourg, and Edith Piaf--all artists of uncommon vision and voice. But funky? Mais non. Clearly, the members of Parisian electronica-hip-hop-house combo Cassius didn't get the memo. Combining trucked-in vocals, choppy breakbeats, random bloops and gurgles, jazzy hip-hop, and staccato synth, Cassius producers Philippe Zdar and Hubert Blanc-Francart create sparkly, boombastic disco nuggets that are at once rave-worthy and, yes, funky. Suggestions of Kraftwerk emerge in cuts like the robotic, vocoder-boosted "Telephone Love," while guests such as Ghostface Killah and Jocelyn Brown--who croons diva-style on the rocking, Saturday Night Fever-damaged "I'm A Woman"--add sizzle. But the steak is the unrelentingly butt-wiggling, studio-enhanced throwdowns stitched together by Cassius. Très groovy. --Kim HughesLong considered one of the cornerstones of the French dance explosion alongside Daft Punk and Dimitri From Paris, the dynamic duo Philippe Zdar and Boombass return with a stunning album that captures the essence of their notorious DJ mix sets while further exploring their talent as producers. Astralwerks. 2002.
