Howdy folks!
FRΞNCH ΞXPRΞSS
louis la roche
i don’t know if you’ve realized, but french house has been pretty much dormant for the past few years. whatever the reasons are, indie-house has been stealing the limelight, getting bigger and badder than its older and forgotten brother — disco/ french house. with all the trendy bass guitar twangs accompanied by a bombardment of harsh noises, the scene has almost forgotten about that funky filtered sound which we all grew off of.
but a fairly new face out of the UK hopes to change all that. this is louis la roche, and his mission is to bring back french house. this guy’s been producing since he was about 15, and he’s only 18 to date. he is part of the very promising newer generation of french house artists that we hope to see a lot of good come from.
louis wears his sounds with pride, and you can hear it. built and bred off of oldschool french house, his sound is so impeccably french that one of his tracks was mistaken for and named as one of ‘thomas bangalter’`s. louis samples michael jackson’s ‘falling in love’ to achieve a track that is simply so hard not to fall in love with. after a few months of confusion, it was finally cleared to be la roche’s track, and not banglater. this guy definitely has our vote. show him some love, hit his myspace! and keep a wide-eyed watch for louis the rock.
