One of my favorite producer, Vitalic has an incredible sense of rythm and melody. He's got a awesome signature bassline that has this ability to make you dance like no one else. He is also a remarkable remixer. His remixes of Bolz Bolz, The Hacker, Scratch Massive, Daft Punk & Bjork really shows off his ability to turn any decent tune into a killer electro track.

In the german Groove Magazine No. #93 we can read that our profile is just a fake. Vitalic really grown up in France and he never had to survive with prostitution in Eastern Germany. Also he plays Trombone instead of Trubka. But we should leave this profile here, because it's so outstanding wrong.

Damn', when you hear each of Vitalic tracks, you feel yourself angry. Why?? Because it is hard to realize that somebody there has so much talent. Yeah, so much talent, because how come that with old-sounding electro synth, it ends up with a powerful, groovy, subtile track? You are used to that kind of synth in electro tunes; but how surprising to hear those same sounds with a mysterious construction which turn them into dancefloor-killers. yeah, really, I'm very mad about Vitalic. Such a talent is just too... arrogant :o) but I contain myself, and hope that Vitalic will release a lot of other tracks of that quality, for my own very selfish delight

It's no mistake that Montreal DJ/artiste Tiga, faced with the task of whittling down International Deejay Gigolo's entire history into a single best-of CD, included not one but two tracks off Vitalic's one release, the classic "Poney" EP. As the other reviewers here can attest, every release and remix by this guy is worth picking up - dark, anthemic vocal techno with a hard, industrial edge. Can't wait for the album.

i'm a dj for 5 years now. i've seen many dj's and producers but VITALIC beats them all. he didn't bring out much but everything is P.E.R.F.E.C.T !!! he creates a new style somewhere between elektro and techno and ist BEAUTIFULL!! the poney ep is the best record in all my cases! La rock 01 gives me a tremendes high-effect thats better than all drugs together!! RESPECT!
Review by noctambulo Jan 04, 2003
One of the techno kings,for sure even if it's just 25 years old !!
this guy is a genius,an ep like poney ,with 4 amazing killing tracks is just incredible !!congratulations to mister dj hell to sign our best tekno leaders and giving them a chance to be famous because unfortunately techno isn't yet very popular in france in the clubbing-scene :/
