Hot-as-shit French electro-pop star Yelle just dropped her debut album, ‘POP-UP’ on Source-etc and you can get it right now from Amazon. It’s everything I wanted it to be, it’s some pop and it’s some dance club and it’s in a language I don’t understand even slightly! So fun! Yelle and her hot-as-shit producer GrandMarnier came on the world radar their first single, ‘Je Veux te Voir’ and are stepping it up with the second single, ‘À Cause des Garçons’ with the drop of the album.
Yelle gets plenty of remix treatment, including a few by frequent collaborator TEPR, as well as the late great Disco D, Riot in Belgium, Sta and more. This is plenty, but it’s still just the best of the best of what’s out there:
Now a hop and skip over from Yelle is GrandMariner’s other projects including the undeniable track with TEPR, ‘Minuit Jacuzzi’ (We put it up before, but damn, it’s going up again!). Also, a remix for Yelle-like French electro-pop starlett Catherine Ferroyer-Blanchard, who has a nice cassette single titled, ‘Chanson d’Amour’ (yea, it’s really a cassette single) that’s been catching ears at hipster boutiques and getting int’l blog love (see BigStereo. You can hear the original on the video on YouTube and cop the tape on her official website. But right here is the remix.
You are now up on Yelle, GrandMarnier and Cathrine Ferroyer-Blanchard if you weren’t knowin’ already. Now holler at the Myspaces of Yelle, GrandMarnier, and Catherine Ferroyer-Blanchard, please and thank you.
