In just a few years, French dance duo have rocketed to a high-profile –
being name-checked by Kanye West, creating expertly remixed modern-day
instant classics like Simian’s “We Are Your Friends” and Justin
Timberlake’s “Love Stoned”, and rocking clubs around the world.
It comes as no surprise that «†», the first album by Justice, is a fantastic treat for the ears and for the
feet. A kind of musical opera marked with religious and baroque symbols, where the melodies are
ripped to shreds by the beats, where electro teaches rock a lesson and where pop gets a botox injection.
Rarely in the history of French house music has a first album lived up so well to expectancies.
A generational manifest, ideally positioned on the side of the dancefloor, «†», insolent with youth, is a
testimony that the French electro scene is healthier than ever. Justice first.
