	February 2008 SEBASTIEN TELLIER Sexuality

	www.sebastientellier.com In a nutshell: It is difficult to rein in the gush of praise that floods forth when trying to describe just how utterly fab this record is. Produced by one half of Daft Punk (Guy Manuel De Homem-Christo full name fans!) it slinks from tune to tune with a timeless, effortlessly sensual throb. It’s the soundtrack to a French 70’s soft core porn flick, probably featuring someone dressed as a spaceman. With a beard. Famous by dint of his 2005 tear jerking classic la Ritournelle, Sebastien Tellier has made an album which is effectively aural Viagra in an absinthe cocktail with a dash of Air’s Moon Safari. The first pop classic of the year.

		Now hear this: Or rather Now Watch This: Sexual Sportswear. The video is on YouTube here. Exquisite.

	Verdict: It cuts deep when a Frenchman is this cool and this talented and you are not sure which came first, but I for one think we should all be a bit more like Seb and indeed, a tad more French. Discuss.
