The members of Phoenix, one of the most important French bands worldwide since the success of their album It's Never Been Like That have gathered a selection of tracks they've lived with and that have stood the test of time. To quote them: "...these are little treasures that have had a huge impact and amazed us."

Title: Kitsuné Maison 7
Label: KITSUNE (FRANCE)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: CDA 020CD
This is the seventh Kitsuné Maison compilation, the lucky one. Year after year, Kitsuné gets more and more professional, while still remaining as fresh and as passionate as ever. With a constantly-expanding network of artists and always more news, discoveries, talents soon to blow-up, hopes, love, happiness and hedonism, this compilation is not so much an exclusive club, but more of a welcoming space, open to all winds. There are newcomers but also loyal friends -- some artists who are now firmly part of the Kitsuné family. Bands from the Kitsuné Maison compilations have even started to play some collective shows together. From the driving, passionate, electro-dance scrawl of Crystal Fighters to L.A.'s Classixx remixing France's Phoenix, to the swishy disco-stomp of The Golden Filter, the Kitsuné sieve keeps on searching for gold, and more often than not, they get lucky. Other artists include: Two Door Cinema Club, We Have Band, La Roux, Beni, Autokratz, 80 Kidz, James Yuill, Men, Lifelike, Yuksek, Prins Thomas, Chew Lips, Chateau Marmont, Heartsrevolution, Delphic, Maybb, Renaissance Man, and Tanlines.


Artist: HEARTSREVOLUTION
Title: Hearts Japan EP
Label: KITSUNE (FRANCE)
Format: CD
Price: $12.50
Catalog #: CDA 023CD
The Kitsuné label presents an exclusive mini-album by hotly-tipped New York-based electro/punk/dance artists, Heartsrevolution, with remixes from the hottest current Japanese artists, along with a selection of the band's previous singles. Heartsrevolution is a trio made up of Lo (vocals), Ben (synths/guitars) and Prince Terrence (drums). They create music that is the perfect dichotomy of energetic dance music and melodic, child-like euphoria. Since the beginning, a love story has been developing between the band and Japan -- they actually played at Summersonic Festival -- and this is where the idea of having their song "Dance Till Dawn" remixed by the crème de la crème of Japanese producers came from. 80kidz, Dex Pistols and AMWE all jumped at the project, and Heartsrevolution's Hearts Japan EP was created. Moreover, a fantasy manga video featuring the characters on the CD cover illustrates the song. As all the band's releases to date have been limited edition vinyl, the EP was completed by a collection of some of their songs -- from love ballads to dancefloor anthems -- to immerse every listener into Heartsrevolution's amazing and unique world before the release of their debut album, which is certain to set dancefloors -- and hearts -- on fire.

Price: $15.50
Catalog #: CDA 024CD
Here is the eighth Kitsuné Maison compilation -- the "Chic and Nice" issue. The French indie-dance label mobilizes all their most passionate and exciting musical friends for this brilliant eighth edition. Two Door Cinema Club and Delphic are the latest additions to the Kitsuné family, and their respective debut albums are forthcoming on Kitsuné. It was a two-month listening marathon of sorts for this edition in Kitsuné's Montmartre offices... and everywhere else for that matter. This volume is even more of a world tour: there's vocals in French and Japanese, and releases by Finnish, Swedish and German artists -- basically everyone's invited. Heartsrevolution, Slagsmålsklubben, Beni, Chew Lips and Crystal Fighters will all also have their tracks out as singles on Kitsuné. This is the perfect mix of fashion-forward, upbeat, international pop that will cause ears to prick forward in hotly-buzzed anticipation.

Title: Kitsuné Maison 9
Label: KITSUNE (FRANCE)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: CDA 028CD
The ninth edition of the Kitsuné Maison compilation series is "The Petit Bateau Edition" or "The Cotton Issue," in reference to the baby that was recently born within the Kitsuné family. Indeed, here is officially the most snuggly, peaceful, motherly Kitsuné compilation yet -- soft as cotton. That's right, this is music babies can get into. A fully-padded compilation that's rather more candid, innocent and carefree than the norm, and which still invites the listener to shake his hips a bit. This compilation will be attractive to ears of all ages. Restful, serene, and more contemplative, with a selection that's probably more geared towards Sunday afternoons than Saturday nights, more yuzu green tea than stupid alcopops. Sure there are a few hysterical sirens on the Jupiter track, but Kitsuné asked for them to be toned down so as not to wake the little one. Other artists include: Washed Out, Gamble & Burke, Penguin Prison, Jamaica, Crookers, Yelle, Lifelike, Yuksek, Fenech-Soler, Two Door Cinema Club, The Twelves, Logo, Silver Columns, Holy Ghost!, Hurts, Arthur Baker, Gypsy & The Cat, Joan Of Arc, Feldberg, Your Nature, The Good Natured, Zebra & Snake, and Monarchy.

Sealing a vibrant appreciation based on mutual respect, Kitsuné X Ponystep, the ultimate fashion CD, aims at mixing London edge with Parisian chic -- two highly stylish and defined worlds, still quite apart from each other. Fusing pop, electro, indie, disco and more, Kitsuné X Ponystep mixes tracks and remixes from some of the hottest names around (French Horn Rebellion, Booka Shade, Aeroplane, Lindstrøm, Munk); a truly international cast that goes as far as Sydney, Perth, NYC, Oslo, Berlin, Munich, Manchester and inevitably Paris and London.

Label: KITSUNE (FRANCE)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: CDA 034CD
This new Kitsuné compilation is called Kitsuné Parisien, which should speak for itself -- in French. Kitsuné Parisien officially digs out the next breed of Parisian acts, exposing the new crop of French Touch. Selected by label head-honcho Gildas Loaëc and international party hopper/artist "André" Saraiva, it showcases the cream of the new Parisian music scene. Indeed, these two know a thing or two about Paris and music: Loaëc was Daft Punk's right-hand man for 15 years before founding Kitsuné, whereas André, having long tagged his "Monsieur A" over the capital's walls, always welcomes up-and-coming bands and DJs in his various clubs, which in return have become essential platforms for new local talents to emerge. Kitsuné Parisien is also a unique store in the heart of Paris whose frontage was also designed by André. Kitsuné Parisien includes each season of fine and fancy collector's items, high-quality garments and of course, CDs and records. On the occasion of the compilation's release, many items have been made in collaboration with André -- including a leather jacket, boxer shorts and T-shirts. "La boucle est bouclée," (trans. "It has all come full circle") as they say in France. Artists on this compilation include: Destin, Birkii, Yann Wagner, Housse De Racket, Golden Bug, Jupiter, Logo, Ryskee (feat. Jenny Wilson), Jamaica's Sunshine, Beataucue, Sauvage, Valley, Exotica and Cascadeur.

Hot on the heels of Phoenix and Digitalism, who previously selected and mixed Kitsuné Tabloid compilations, Rio's finest The Twelves deliver not one, but two mixes on one CD: the first gathers exclusive unreleased dubs of recent The Twelves remixes, the second offers a DJ selection that compiles many of the duo's influences into one full-of-funk eclectic mix. The Twelves have a rare ear for melody and definitely have the funk, but what is the funk actually? "Funk is a feeling. It's that tingle you get when you play something and can't help but move your body," they say. Yes, after nu-disco, retro house and the rest, funk is the comeback story of 2011 and what could be better than a double mix that favors all these influences in a sunny and festive Brazilian atmosphere.
