YELLE

It's pretty grebt.

secretly hoping for some googlers on this one. bump.

Search out the Disco D remix of "Je Veux Te Voir"

I'm having a bit of an issue tracking down the remixes but this album is fucking classic so far. SPENCER CHOW HAVE YOU HEARD OF THIS CHICK?

don't wanna be a hater but she reminds me a bit of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0CHAZJr3OE

NSFL

like, a little warning next time please, I know Mackro Mackro and a few other people dig on that shit but some of us have, uh, working pituitaries

haha I didn't even watch that video long enough to realize it wasn't J-Pop

still BLARGH

haha sorry, there are some pretty great/crepey ytmnd's of that show

so anyway I'm surprised "Mal Poli" isn't a single yet, I love this shit.

Oh man! I love her "A Cause Des Garcons" cover. Fan-bloody-tastic. I'm also in love with the blokes in the clip: the Punky haircut, skinny jeans and kandy kolored sneakers. Yum yum. So this is apparently zee nouveau thing: Tecktonik. Anyone know more about this genre? I need to get more of this, uh, stuff.

*drool* Yes, I'm a pathetic mother of two who's drooling over these 20sths. :-(

I wanted to like this, but the original remains way better

You're right, but I can't help enjoying this as well.

Yelle- Cause des Garons (Riot In Belgium Remix)

anyone heard this version? any good?

nathalie, you know you're drooling over 3 super gay dudes?

sweet, the ACDG single is on amazon.com downloads now

Tombot, I have mentioned Yelle on other threads! I am obviously a HUGE fan and urge anyone who likes Annie to check her out.

Exactly my position

Search out the Disco D remix of "Je Veux Te Voir"

I actually prefer the single mix:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LawV-IR6h0

I actually play it out often.

There's also a fun edit of her "Ce Jeu" which throws in some synths from Heaven 17's "Let Me Go" by LA's own Them Jeans.

"YELLE" is french for HOLLA t/f?

It should be because the tepr rmx of ACDG is FUCKIJG AWESMOE

Yelle- Cause des Garons (Riot In Belgium Remix)

anyone heard this version? any good?/

good version, a little too short!

So this is apparently zee nouveau thing: Tecktonik. Anyone know more about this genre? I need to get more of this, uh, stuff.

Err, I'm not sure you do, Nath, unless you have a soft spot for cheap-ass euro-trance

"YELLE" is french for HOLLA t/f?

if this interview is to be believed it's an acronym for "you enjoy life," feminized because there's a Belgian band called Yel.

Yelle es beau...

with some of the crap that's getting posted in the singles/albums of the year nominations thread I'm surprised this hasn't shown up. On the other hand, I'm really not.

Should maybe run a myspace/youtube specific poll for song of the year, just for Je Veux Te Voir/Chocolate Rain/Crank That

I think it was nominated for the 2006 poll. but no harm in nominating it again.

'Je Veux Te Voir' reminds me of 'Short Dick Man' but with an even more annoying vocal :/

i see she mentions Lil Jon tho!

it's original title was "short dick cuizi"

I didn't realize the original myspace storm was last year

I guess this year was the actual album

Jaxon, I am very aware of the silliness of my crush. I also know that I do not stand a chance. ;-) That said, I am still crushing over'em. :-)

Fabrice, I checked out some of that trancy shit (as my husband also more or less described it). Weirdly I quite like it. Hmm. I also checked out some Youtube "how to dance" clips. I am officially an old bitch: most are half my age and I would never be able to dance lie this. Not even badly. WTF.

She rose to fame on myspace.com when she posted a song titled "Short Dick Cuizi", dissing Cuizinier, a member of the Parisian hip-hop group TTC.

Also: I dislike Annie so thank god I never saw the comp with said Norwegian lass.; -)

Yelle has officially become a household name in France thanks to this:

lovin it

oh word

love "Parle à ma main"

Je Veux Te Voir is really cackhanded and annoying. What's the difference between this and Uffie?

I know I'm way late to the party but the Tepr mix of A Cause is kicking my ass, even though I'm not even close to a fan of electronic music. Should I seek out Yelle albums? Or Tepr stuff?

ah, I remember how startled I was when my 8 years old girl cousines started singing "parle a ma main", especially the "les mecs y pensent qu'a nous mettre des doigts" ("guys only think about fingering us") part... puzzling...

I have only heard that diss song of her and I expected her to look a whole lot sassier than she did when I finally copped the video but I still like it. I sang it to this one friend I have whose a Christian and French (I KNOW!) and she was proper insulted till I explained.
Its a great song, really fun.

well, the lyrics are pretty heavy for such a popular song in france. it's the "chansons grivoises" tradition, i guess (and the french christians aren't the last to like that kinda things).

Such a great album.

the song she's done with crookers is pretty awesome. apparently she was working on a new album in autumn/winter just gone. seems like she hasn't done anything for aaages - other than the katy perry thing.

Also the excellent Robyn cover last year.

DUDES!

i really like her voice on this, which i never thought i'd say

and yet, underneath it all, i feel that bnw remains otm

i'm just not sure i mind

what have i become

I put Safari Disco Club on a recent mixtape and have listened to the song quite a few times even though I kind of don't like it. Not sure she's ever going to top A Cause des Garcons.

well, not many people ever will.

The new album's very enjoyable. I suspect, like the first one, it'll sound better live than on record though. Wish i'd known she was supporting Katy Perry next week. Comme Un Enfant is my pick of the bunch at the moment.

The new album's very enjoyable.

I was surprised to see posters for her playing a large club here after not seeing her name for years since she appeared. I will go back to not thinking of her.

She's at Village Underground on the 4th of March. Tickets still available, i think.

Definitely worth it - her live show is terrific.

I like OMG! I’m really disappointed there’s still not been another album. Get on the stick, Yelle.

This revive sponsored by Annie from Norway coming out with her first new album after eleven years.

I need a new album
