Yeah, I agree. And the only tracks I would use on the dancefloor are Around
the World and Da Funk (I think that's the track. The one with the video of
the solitary dog and his box. It gets people shakin their booties anyway)

There's some decent maison francais on the Sourcelab compilations. I've had
number 3 for a couple of years now and I still break out ODC "La Methode
Rose" (among others) now and then.

        Ahh, execept I did listen. I made the mistake of buying "homework"
after
        it got hyped on this list. I was thourghly dissapointed. I kept
putting
        it in and listening to it, but, it just struck me a pretty bland.
Maybe if
        I was on the dance floor I might get into it. Cassius is just more
fun. I
        like the more funky-jazzy flavor that I've come to like from the
French
        house I like, see F Communications. But, I do hope we hear more
from La
        Funk Mob (any good MC Solaar mixes still around?).
