Produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk and released by Air's label Record Makers, Sébastien Tellier's new album 'Sexuality' is a rhythmic ode to - you guessed it - the art of love making.

‘Sexuality’ explores the common ground between Daft Punk's 'Make Love' and Air's 'Sexy Boy'.

Tellier's songs traverse voluptuous synths and sweeping strings. The drums throb and whir soothingly at the edges of the sound. Tellier sings in a convincing coo and whisper as if he is updating Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot's ascendant 'Je T'Aime Moi Non Plus'.

Where Tellier's French contemporaries like Justice head for the euphoric, chanting hooks, Tellier goes mellow, radiating warmth and revealing subtle analogue textures.

L’amour et la Violence

I expected so much from this record because of all the hype Tellier had around him. I think it completely missed the mark.

It's not produced by Guy-Manuel Homem-Christo. It's produced by Eric Chedeville aka DJ Rico who founded Crydamoure with Guyman a few years back (they are still working together as "Le Knight Club").

Single

edit // cancel that, I have actually heard samples of the whole album. I don't like it.

he's credited as producer on the first single "Sexual Sportswear" and RA also credits him as producer on the album, but that text was copied from another site so i can't take full credit for any mistakes.

From the samples on his myspace, nothing amazing. Still need to hear the rest though.

And it's time to give La Ritournelle another listen...that track was on repeat for fucking ages when it came out.

The thing about it is that hes trying 2 bring a new style tho just like he did with Just be and it worked. they songs areunt TOO HIGHT up. but the vocals acaully are the best thing in 2007. The Track Carpe Noctum is like traffic but it hink he could of prefected the shit ouf it. but generalllyy its an amazing album...oh and Ten Seconds Before Sunrise is like Forever today TIMES 12

the SebAstian remix of "Sexual Sportswear" is pretty sweet imo, have yet to listen to the album though.

'Divine' is really nice, sounds 50's.

I expected more too though.

Divine is great!

Just checked this out today, I really like, it's a bit like french pop (some of the tracks), reminds me of high school, but it's cool, I like it.

I like Rouche the best for now.

Thumbs up album for me
