Parisian electro-popstar Sébastien Tellier is sexually charged. We’ve been amp’d up for the stateside release of Tellier’s third studio album, ‘Sexuality’, for months now. You’ll remember that the record is produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk fame. Well now we have it, Record Makers have given us something special for our eager hands…
Beginning this week, Sébastien Tellier’s new album, ‘Sexuality’, is available for pre-order exclusively at all American Apparel locations throughout North America. This is the first music release to be carried by the clothing store chain. ‘Sexuality’s first single, ‘Sexual Sportswear’ no doubt influenced American Apparel to secure Tellier for this exclusive deal, because, hey, sexual sportswear is AA’s business model. Additionally, American Apparel has created two limited garments, the Sexuali-Tee and Sexuali-Tank to celebrate the pairs’ tryst.
Enjoy this ‘Sexual Sportswear’ remix from Parisian producer, Donovan from the ‘Sexual Sportswear’ single.

Many of you probably heard the controversy surrounding the second ‘Sexuality’ single, ‘Divine’. It was selected to represent France at the yearly Eurovision Song Contest. ‘Divine’, which lyrics are in English, ’caused a stir as critics said it did not properly represent French music. The song was slightly altered to appease critics, but perhaps Tellier was doomed at that point, and after the May 24th performance—’Divine’ placed near the bottom (18th of 25 competitors). I see it as their mistake, as ‘Divine’ is absolute win. Enjoy this remix from Melb.’s Midnight Juggernauts, that we promised once upon a time:
