Not sure if it’s analogous to finding someone with a foreign accent sexy, but we in North America readily stereotype the French as “just making better music.” Take Hana Yori Kichou Na as an example: an 18 year old Franco-Luxembourgish (Luxembourgian? Luxemburger?) chap who has been making some serious melodic, rolling, well-crafted filter disco. His work to date includes stellar remixes of his influences from labels Roulé and Crydamoure, as well as some very impressive originals that have garnered the attention of thousands of listeners, and record label Exquise Records based in Lyon, France.

These are two of but many seriously worthwhile tracks available from his Soundcloud profile, so DO check him out. He also has a steller 30-40 minute mix if you want something longer for the iPod.
