Paris under a groove - remastered by various

At first this CD could be confused as a Groove Armada project, mixed with a little french flair courtesy of Stephane P from Hotel Costes fame, as it happens it an eclectic mix of Groove armada, a hint of st germain and hotel costes.A blend of jazz background , house/garage beats and a touch of soul here and there. the already well played and very well liked Mantis by VERSUS is one of the best tunes even iif its slightly hypnotic and makes ou dizzy with the constant whirrr whirrr wickedy wicked soound , The Bottle has a similar effect, great throbbing tune with excellent horn work up front and background and even a set of peruvian pipes make an appearance like a nu yorican soul cd.
the crazily titled SPLEEN left me slightly holding said body organ as it was no better then a toyota car ad! very robotic with strains of my neighbours rock band....nice? The cd would nt be paris under a groove without mention of the great city and in paris vibes we are getting a great song, full of changing melodies , its never one to bore you like a john malkovich movie ...
