Album Notes & Community Reviews

A phenomenal summary of the incredibly influential output released on Alan Braxe's Vulture Music label during the absolute peak of the French House movement. Crucially, it includes the massive, globally ubiquitous hit 'Music Sounds Better with You' by Stardust, alongside heavily filtered, disco-sampling club staples like 'Intro'. The collection acts as a definitive primer on the sleek, Parisian dance aesthetic of the era.
