If there was ever any doubt that you can rock the roofing off of a house with french dance music, well, last saturday Georges Deligny, Minimatic, Natashka and yours truly showed Amsterdam how it's done. De Nieuwe Anita in Amsterdam was jampacked, the dancefloor just would not clear! The beautiful crowd sang along to the hits, and moved their hips to obscure gems. Upstairs, where the Boutique Chic-twelves were selling like hotcakes (there were even some people who did not own Filles Fragiles, amazingly), it took some persuasion before the crowd would leave - if we could, we would've kept going 'til dawn. So thanks to all who came, danced and drank. Thanks to Thomas & Pascal for their brilliant music (who will find 'em a venue in Paris to rock parties like this? Incredible but true: you cannot play yeye, French electropop and gallic funk in Paris. Thomas: 'It was wonderful to dj somewhere and NOT get anyone come up to me and request Eminem') and thanks to Natashka for organising it all so smoothly.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenYeah ! You're lucky to have seen these gigs. I'm from Paris and as you say, there's no way to see that kind of concerts here. Actually, i've discovered (and loooooveee)the boutique chic compilation with your blog.... and never heared about it here. funny isn't it ?
