CD ReviewsBrilliant, if you don't already own it! 04/17/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "Notice how Madonna's song "Music" did well but the whole album did not and French electrofunk never really caught on in the US. Some of the events that caused that phenomenon happened here. I loved this album. It's brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. However, I don't know if the album is great because it's the best of each of the artists included. I also don't know if this will be my stepping stone to buy more French dance music. Still, I definitely can say this album itself has me dancing my legs off. I am going to have to play it out for several months now. I recommend this album even if I don't have proof that people should investigate the entire genre. One pet peeve, the design of the CD is supposed to reflect the French flag, but instead of using blue, they use purple. Somebody is not up on their knowledge of flags." Decent French House Eye Opener 07/30/2002 (3 out of 5 stars) ""My House in Montmarte" is French house at its second-best. Its tracks are compulsively dance-able, but it simply paints a small picture of what the genre is truly about. While it does contain some great tracks, This could be imagined as a "Best of Late 90's/Early Millenium French House" appearing on paid programming 10 years from now. It seems as though the track selection method was to simply pick out the most popular French artists and songs, not just the most talented French HOUSE artists and songs. The tracks by Daft Punk, Cassius, We In Music, Demon, and Alan Braxe are shining stars on the album, but their quality is sadly diminished by the likes of Air's "Modulor Mix" (which cannot really be considered French house, just French) and the obvious choice of the overplayed #1 French house anthem--"Music Sounds Better With You". Overall, this album is great for getting your feet wet in the French house scene, but don't be disillusioned by its quirky disco antics. A more fitting compilation to more accurately represent the scene is "Crydamoure Presents Waves" or any of the "Sourcelab" compilations." Great compilation Jake Z | Canada | 01/28/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "My brother lent this cd to me a few years ago when it came out, and I bought it right away. This is a great dance cd. French house music is the game here, and the cd is chalk full of great tunes by great DJs and artists! It's not all French house but the majority of it is. The tracks by We In Music, Demon, Alan Braxe, Daft Punk and Cassisus are all shining moments on the disc. The inclusion of "The Music's Sounds Better With You" is ok, but the song is readily available and overplayed. Also Air's "Modular Mix" is out of place here. Most of the songs are well known so it's not a cd that is known for having rare or unknown house/dance tracks, still it's a worthy compilation worth seeking out."
