    Very good album. A strong King Crimson presence. The Musea cd sounds great.

    I think, one of the best french rock bands is Noir Desir. And I really like their song „Comme Elle vient“:

    Franchise Hardy - self titled debut album https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mfFlGiQw21GqcAj2eBFQV6g8AqdwtwnS8

    The following I found on Bandcamp:

    Initial Bouvier Bernois
    Initials Bouvier Bernois, by Initials Bouvier Bernois

    French Boutik - French Pop
    https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lIG5ATBmq7h4Ze3jzNiklEds9UAAJ8Ji0

    Double Francoise - Les Bijoux
    https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kNJOrQzWkhunNQ1RHQ8onFLt2kW0yJv4w

    The last album is a compilation from, Ace Records, of the 60s beat girl sound, and the French take on that sound at that time. They actually do a whole series of that sound from around the world, Italy, Spain, Eastern Bloc, Asia etc and their take on the sound of that time, well worth a look if you like this.

    Big fan of the artist Zaz. She has evolved into more of a vocal jazz singer on her later albums but this debut in 2010 is Manouche folk music and it's fantastic.

    Yann Tiersen Dust Lane 2010

    [​IMG]

    Dust Lane is a cinematic orchestral pop record that recalls the swagger of classic Serge Gainsbourg , it's a rich, moody, multi-layered work that finds Tiersen showing off his instrumental prowess and playing a wide array of instruments from strings to synthesizers on his haunting classical/rock compositions.
