Vicki Vale is in danger !
I was 10 years old in 1989 when Tim Burton's fantastic film Batman came out across France. It will always remain my first memory of an immense american blockbuster. Everything went nuts in this era of "batmania", the advertising campaigns, the many products derived from the film, even the hair cuts shaved in the formation of the batsignal. This film will remain for a long time a reference because of its actors, decor, costumes, but also for the film's sounds composed by Prince. Valerie has never given hommage to this little genius groove. So today, with a cult-classic title, listen very loudly to this piece of perfection: la Batdance!

Wild Melody
Certain titles that one stumbles across the internet seem to haunt more than others. The film Zombie 2 (or L'enfer des Zombies in french) by Lucio Fuli benefits from a remarkable theme composed by Fabio Rizzi and Giogio Tucci. It is a dirty atmosphered epic that gives me the desire to discover these picutres even if they seems to be kind of crappy.

End Theme
By accident on an anxious Thursday, I particulary enjoyed the end theme from the cult classic "Friday the 13th" by Sean S. Cunningham. Composed by Harry Manfredini in 1980, this beautiful suspenseful ballade is not presented by the film's original band because the quality is pretty mediocre and copywrited.

What Now My Love ?
Et comme un bonheur n'arrive jamais seul, en gros bonus du soir l'interprétation "musclée" mais raffinée par Minitel Rose du tube des Outrunners "These Girls Are Dressed To Kill" !
This weekend I just wanted to have a huge ball. Then came the entirely new, ultra effective, synthetic production of Futurecop! Two English artists that our german friends from Discodust presented to us a little while ago. And now I, just like Anoraak, want to again thank everyone for the first Valerie Party. It was a smashing success! And don't forget, we will be here again next Thursday, at Cafe Pop in Nantes for the DJ sets filled with tons of new stuff!
And because happiness never comes unaccompanied, a huge bonus, redefined by Minitel Rose of Outrunners' "These Girls Are Dressed To Kill" !

Love Sees No Color !
Les mélodies sonnent bien "Valerie", il utilise en plus très habilement des petits samples qui donne du volume à l'ensemble. Merci Neon Blak, il y a fort à parier que ton son résonnera très fort dans nos prochaines Valerie Party !
It's the weekend, and it does you well to play sports and listen to good music. This project is called Neon Blak, he comes to us from Suede and I'm excited to present to you his work. His production is really excellent and will make everyone want to dance!
The melodies strike Valerie really well, he cleverly uses little samples that give a great volume together. Thank you, Neon Blak, it's pretty safe to say that your song will resound loudly at our next Valerie Party!

Waiting for the space odyssey with you ...
Le 1er projet de ce post est déjà connu des fidèles lecteurs du blog, puisqu'il s'agit de nos amis Japonais de Narctrax qui nous présentent leur nouveau titre "Concorde". Le second CRJ, est une découverte et son titre "Loverider", aux intemporels accents "trancy", me rappelle les plus belles heures d'une musique que l'on n'entend plus beaucoup aujourd'hui : un vrai coup de coeur !

Kap10Kurt!
Hi folks, for this monday, an awesome discover -yeah, you're on VALERIE blog ;) - called Kap10Kurt. Living in New York, they've blown out my computer's speakers with their mix of videogame music and retro-inspired club electro; it makes feel like in a plateform game, with a beautiful princess to take out from a castle. They are 2 on stage (k10k and Leah), and coming to Europe at the end of november, including a gig with Digitalism in Zurich on December 8.

Deutch Fantasy !
Le titre que je vous présente "Brothers In Death" , m'a à peu près autant retourné que "Love In A Real Train" de Risky Business. Une nappe aérienne dévastatrice et spatiale de plus de 8 minutes qui nous plonge au coeur d'un mystérieux rêve allemand.
"The Keep" is a 1983 film produced by Michael Mann, who was equally responsible for a TV series well known to this blog, "Miami Vice". Stephen Falken directed me to this fantastic film of the 80s. And it didn't surprise us that the original score was composed by the illustrious Tangerine Dream.
The title I'm presenting to you "Brothers In Death" made me thing back to "Love in a Real Train" from Risky Business.

Love In Your Eyes ?
"Masterpiece", "I Like Chopin", "Lunatic".... All of you who know GAZEBO's creations also know these songs very well, this song "love in your eyes" (1983 / Baby Records) is less know but it must change now !
"I love you too
but you make me feel so sad
a Mini Moog is just all you need so bad
you were just a damn sequencer
moving to the beat
living with a synthesizer
cold as a repeat "
image tirée de la série télévisée "Space 1999" (en anglais) "Cosmos 1999" (en français)
