Paradis 'Toi Et Moi'
How much funk is to much ? Paris duo Paradis debuted on NYC radio show-turned-label 'Beats in Space' in 2011 with 'Parfait Tirage'.
Parfait Tirage' was their inaugural single, but there was a manicured feel to it, as if the duo of Simon Mény and Pierre Rousseau had been painstakingly sanding their take on French pop and American house for ages until it was smooth and polished from every angle.
Yet "Toi et Moi," from their debut LP, Recto Verso, flashed an even greater elegance and lighter touch.
There are potent club tracks elsewhere on the album, but "Toi et Moi" leans towards pop.
Synthesized strings heave, a one-finger melodic line percolates, and a closed hi-hat propels the track.
There's a shimmering descending line that leads into the chorus, melancholic and luxurious at once, striking a perfect balance between a chanson and the club.

I've been discovering so much good music in the recent times and about 80% of it is french music.

If i ever visit a French underground club in Paris while I’m young and this is not the type of music I will hear when I walk into the club, I will be very disappointed to say the least...

This is why I can never go back to any mythical " good old days" of music like some of my contemporaries wish to do.May the future bring more innovative tracks like this.

French language is beautiful. Don’t regret picking it up in HS and continuing to try to practice it. Had a really good French teacher and I wonder what happened to her since she was the best French teacher ever.
Juan Garcia
Great... another french song I'm absolutely in love with despite me not being able to understand it
