• The Early Years of French Electronic Released on Compilation; Includes Serge Gainsbourg, Jean Michel Jarre and Cerrone Included [TRACK LIST]

    It's not exactly a secret that Europe has always been a hotbed for electronic music. German bands such as Kraftwerk experimented with synthpop during the '70s, the United Kingdom popularized house and "big beat" for two decades afterward, and the current scene is dominated by names from all over the continent. Daft Punk is rightly praised as one of the biggest names in electronic music, but it certainly wasn't the first French act to have an influence. Because Music is launching the compilation "Cosmic Music: A Voyage Across French Cosmic & Electronic Avantgarde (1970-1980)" to flesh out the nation's often overshadowed influence on the genre.
