Holy Strays

Sebastien Forrester, a French bohemian artist based in Paris, France who traffics within a melange of aliases but whose freshest mask is Holy Strays. Stuttering drum loops, hypnotic keyboard spirals, and melodic fogs that float up then dissipate. The elements are all there gelling up a superlative sound.

Breakbot

Breakbot is signed to Ed Banger Records. He is an awesome Frenchman who makes electronic, mainly breakbeat-orientated music that doesn't bang to please. It floats along collecting bass, synths and other awesome noises to make you gleefully wag your head from side to side. Perfect music for walking, dancing sensually and chatting it up with friends! Toast the good times with Breakbot.
