Profile: I felt into electronic music at the age of 10 while hearing Daft Punk's Da Funk. My interest has been growing by new appearances of the so-called Versailles' French touch AIR, Phoenix, Etienne de Crécy & friends.
1999, an New-Yorker self-called Moby releases Play. I became fan and started collecting albums, maxis, EP's and rare mp3/stuff, even unreleased. Now this collection reaches about 700 songs/mixes of his own material and 100 releases. I can trade mp3 to complete my digital collection (I'm looking for unreleased and demos).
I listen above all to French electronic music from the 90's early works of Laurent Garnier, St Germain or Dimitri From Paris to brand new wave Wax Tailor, Wise (3), or Black Joy.
I'm also fond of Trip-Hop style, typically the Ninja Tune releases (Blockhead, Bonobo, DJ Vadim...), and some masterpieces by DJ Shadow or DJ Krush
Eventually great listener of French pop/rock new wave like Keren Ann, Vincent Delerm, Pauline Croze... This is my first contribution to Discogs, cause they miss a lot of releases.
I do like collecting CD's but I'm also beginning to buy some rare vinyl's. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have something to sell in my wantlist. I do support free download, on condition that people then buy materials and go to live performances, which is my behaviour. Download enables discoveries, but kills music if not followed by an act of buying.
