Details: Product description Everybody Hertz - 10 ~ Everybody Hertz - 10 Amazon.ca After the remarkable release of a second album, 10,000 Hz. Legend, solemnly coated in electronic prog-rock, Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel have summoned some friends aboard their musical bubble labeled Pink Floyd. Their objective: to redesign the aerial soundscapes of the Versailles duo with a lot of eclectic remixes. In the credits of this deconstruction exercise, confirmed hackers such as Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk, Monsieur Oizo, the winning pair of US hip-hop The Neptunes or the dub specialist Adrian Sherwood devote themselves to subtle makeovers. Faced with this square of stars, outsiders offer some clever mixes: the martial beat of The Hacker, on the run away from its Miss Kittin, Malibu alias Roger Joseph Manning Jr of Jellyfish (thinking head of Moog Cookbook) or the essential Modjo. Robotic rhythms mixed with funk-rock serve as a setting for an unprecedented acoustic "The Way You Look Tonight". And instead of the emphatic solo bogging down the floydian genre, Air offers a video of "People In The City" filmed live in Los Angeles. --Sabrina Silamo
