    3 out of 5 stars For McKuen fans only.......2005-05-05

    I'm not a big Rod McKuen fan. I bought this CD only because it was available at a very low price and it included one of my favorite songs, "If You Go Away". It's pleasant enough listening but after a few songs Rod's vocals tend to wear thin. There are two or three tracks tracks performed by French artists, notably one by Jacques Brel.

    Fortunately almost all of Rod's vocals are done in English because his attempts at French just doesn't ring well to my ears. The McKuen standards "Seasons In The Sun" and "I've Been To Town" are a couple of highlights. I'd say if the price is right and you have no major problem with Rod McKuen in general, go for it!

      Album Description

      From French Touch To French Connection ! Once upon a time there was a sound, an electronic beat, shaking the heart of France. Many years after the worldwide success of Cerrone and Jean Michel Jarre, a new rhythm was coming from all parts of the country. Louder and louder, invading every night club and making more and more people dance. End of the eighties, the rock scene was exhausted, almost over. And it was like nobody could resist to that fresh flavour. Once upon a time, there was the French touch (as the British called them), time of glory where decades of new artists suddenly appeared on stage. Some of them were friends in the same school of Versailles. Others met in the same parties or were in the same network. All together, they share the same idea: to break the music walls and to create a new sound by mixing electro, rock and pop beats. It was hard to see them, hidden behind there laptops. But their names begin to travel all "around the world", from Europe to Japan. Laurent Garnier, Charles Schillings, Air, Etienne de Crecy, Alex Gopher, Cassius or Dimitri from Paris. Everybody was wondering who were those guys, creating this crazy music in secret basements? They never wanted to be stars. All they wished was to make the youth move, all nights, all days. It's hard to give a real definition of the movement. Cause at the beginning, the French touch was more about a spirit, a group of friends working together, having fun doing there job. Hi Note. 2007.

      Album Details

      Includes Tracks from Nouvelle Vague, Rouge Rouge, Alexkid, Air, Laurent Garnier, Bob Sinclar, David Guetta, Alex Gopher, and More.

      A stylistic disciple of DJs Shadow and Krush, DJ Cam's sound merges blunt street rhythms with languid samples and atmospheric soundscapes, typifying the increasingly popular school of Parisian trip-hop turntablists. This particular record is a showcase for Artefact, a French label specializing in this approach, as Cam casts an unhurried, hypnotizing spell culled from Artefact's cadre of developing artists. Edgy yet melodious, it's diverse enough to encompass drum & bass, diva vocals, and light trance, but similar enough to display continuity of texture and intention. From the stripped-down big beat of More's "Baron Samedi" all the way through to "One of These Days," Zend Avesta's dusky, Caribbean-flavored pop, Cam shows off a vitally energetic and inventive feel for the material. He ends up creating both an ideal primer for those who wish to explore the French trip-hop subgenre as well as just the right mood music for restless nights and rootless afternoons. --Matthew Cooke

      4 out of 5 stars Probably best one track.......2007-03-09

      I think this CD contain on of the best DJ Cam's single track. Which one is it? Buy it and figure that out.

      3 out of 5 stars Don't Be Fooled.......2000-10-12

      DJ Cam at times seems overrated. Not as original and groundbreaking as Shadow or Krush, but still provides enuff treats for most listeners of TripHop. I have one major problem with Cam on this CD. HE IS A TERRIBLE DJ..... sloppy cuts and stratches prevent this CD from receiving more play than it does now. A real DJ does't take away from the feel of the music but adds to it. DJ Cam should just be Cam, stick to making beats...leave DJing to the DJ's!!!!!

      Overall just an average TripHop CD marred with off cue scratching and sloppy cuts....

      4 out of 5 stars The French Riviera.......2000-05-25

      DJ Cam produces a downbeat CD which is quite not up to to the standards of his DJ Kicks release. But the CD does does finish rather nicely with ultra mellow tracks 12 and 13

      4 out of 5 stars Great tunes but mixing is suspect.......2000-05-01

      First off, DJ Cam is better than this. Check out his DJ Kicks album if you are interested in his DJing skills. The music here on the French Connection suits the usual feel of a Cam record, but there is just no flow to the mix itself. I gave it 4 stars only because the music is tight. Cam does have great taste, but his mixing here seems unenthusiastic and rushed. Only recommended to series heads. Look somewhere else, like DJ Krush's Code 4109, for a sweet downtempo mix.

      4 out of 5 stars Viva la hip-hop!.......2000-04-13

      Dj Cam IS the best thing to come out of france in a very long time. This is hip-hop at it's best.

      5 out of 5 stars Top 5.......2004-04-29

      I remember while in college a friend of mine who was ready to graduate, came to me with this foreign album. I was oblivious to what the world had to offer me musically. I was new to the dance scene and was still trying to grasp everything. After hearing this, I was immediately sucked into its heavy basslines, traveling skats, and euphoric melodies. I had to have it. Unfortunately my copy was stolen and I have been on a mad search for this album for the past two years. This album is one of those classic, have to have albums. Highly recommended!

      5 out of 5 stars Call it what you like,it's inventive,sensual and danceable.......2000-06-20

      Hey, I heard this at a Sushi Bar in Chicago found out what it was and bought it, since then I have listened to it many times. It is a sampler of a scene that I don't know about. not really dub,trance,techno or dreamhop- more fun and one doesn't have to swallow any stupidity here. perhaps a little naivety or fey refernces to the classics but using a sampler is easy making sound that speaks is not!

            I bought this from my CD club as a freebie during a promotion. I was very impressed by Pahud in his recording of the Khachaturian and Ibert concertos and wanted to hear something else by him.

            This is like a lot of collections by big name soloists. It includes a lot of unrelated music done up for virtuoso effect. Some of it is not particularly French, either, including the leadoff piece, a waltz by Shostakovich.

            But everything is interesting and, to me, sometimes a bit bizarre. It was difficult for me to listen to an hour's worth of unrelated music for flute, piano, clarinet and other instrumental collections. The piercing tones of the flute, which were sometimes recorded very closely, were bothersome.

            Still the playing is excellent throughout this disk. If you have an interest in the performers, or if you like French music and/or the flute, you will probably enjoy this very much. It is similar to many such collections by James Galway (no Irish or popular music, however.)

            If you are like me, and your interest centers around European orchestral music, you may have some difficulty finding a niche for this in your collection. The recording is universally outstanding and audiophiles will enjoy that.
