DJ Diehard’s French House Mini Mix.

April 18, 2019

I first went to France in 2001, the summer after Daft Punk’s Discovery was released. It seems like that album was blaring out of every shop and open window in Paris that year. I call it beach music, what you listen to when you’re eating shrimp on the beach in the South of France. The French approach to dance music is unique, grooving and inspiring. This mix was recorded live and features 21 tracks in 13 minutes.
