Sometimes it’s a good thing to check P. Trash’s on the way page. For example I just learnt that a new Cheveu album came out a few weeks ago, on French label Born Bad. It’s more diverse than their first record, but has a few fantastic songs on. The best one comes with a video too.
It’s definitely looking up for French music – after the release of the Les Bellas LP ex-members The Limiñanas return with a new 7″ on the legendary SDZ label: “AF 3458” b/w “Betty and Johnny” (no release date yet). I’ve also heard rumours of an upcoming LP on HoZac.
I’ll play more French garage, and definitely some Cheveu, at the next Record Turnover club night on Thursday. We’ve got a guest set from Marcus Cawood (Flipside) and it will be a great night – already looking forward to it despite my marathon DJ set at the La Sera gig last week.
