Traveling: France

France is the second prolific music producer, after US, with a lot, really a lot, of music online. There's something for every taste, from punk rock, to latin, afro, hip hop... Personally I find something special in the way french artists decline hiphop and jazz. There's always a smooth accent, even in the rawest tune. Something so irrefutably french.


A long music marathon that can keep you dancing and listening for a good while. Hazel is a bandcamp topseller, and these tracks are worth the effort of buying.


Soul music, with good vibes, great vocals, and beautiful french lyrics. And free! What else?


Back in '77 with this beautiful album, made of plenty of real instruments, latin influences, and that 70 funky accent that make you want to put on your platforms and flower-power dress, and just dance.


This is exactly what I mean when I think of french sound. Jazzy, somewhat acid, but still smooth, sexy.
