- Emotion 98.6 - Mylo
Hat tip to Anthony who made me discover this amazing DJ (who also happens to be a compatriot!) Yay the French DJ scene. Moby-like atmosphere brought one notch higher... - Sweet and Lovely - Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane
This is taken from the newly discovered recording of the famous Carnegie Hall concert the two giants of jazz gave. Coltrane is mesmerizing... - Mushaboom - Feist
Discovery of the week. Canadian folk-jazz-funk singer Feist's funky and seductive voice has put a spell on me. This track is taken off her album 3let it die" - King Without a Crown - Matisyahu
I keep playing this song over and over. Absolutely mind-blowing. Can''t believe it is only now i discover the hasidic-reggae sensation. Fantastic intro. - Soul for Sahib - Koop
A very funky jazz piece jazz sparingly laced with electronics. - Know my name - Nightmares on Wax
Great track off trip-pop gurus' latest album. - S.O.U.L - Burning Spear
I was always surprised that this was a Burning Spear song (still not sure it is). In anycase, if you want one inspired flute solo, listen to this track. - Charles Anjo 45 - Caetano Veloso
If there is one song for me that conveys the essence of Brazil, it's this song. Every time I listen to it, I travel back to Rio. - Siempre me quedará - Bebe
Yasmine made me discover this smooth smokey voice just last week. Very spanish, very sexy. - Symphony n° 5, 2nd mvmt - Shostakovitch
I can't get tired of this symphony, a masterpiece.

Hi. Stumbled across your blog while googl-ing Les Poupees Russes. Your blog's fantastic. :D I'll definitely check back here now and then! Continue blogging! By the way, are you living in Paris? I LOVE Paris! Was working and living there a year (way too short!) in 2005.
