The Supermen Lovers is the alias of Guillaume Atlan, who mixes up his formally trained musical skills with clubbing clout.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With a weighty catalogue of releases to his credit, and over the last 15 years in the game, The Supermen Lovers always brings the fresh mix of Funk, Disco, Boogie and House that ranges from uplifting to club-focused. <\/p>\n

Now, French labels Word Up Records<\/strong> & Latebwa<\/strong> welcome The Supermen Lovers for a six track EP available at the end of the month. With the vibes heavy on that one, The Supermen Lovers have given us 10 of his most seminal French Disco tracks of all time. What are some of your favorites?<\/p>\n

1 \u2013 Boule Noire \u2013 Aimer d amour<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

Let’s start from the beginning… I was 4 years old when this track was released. My father used to listen to Rock & Metal and my mother french pop…so it was impossible for me to hear the likes of Boule Noire at home. Eleven years after I went in my first club in Paris. Techno & House did not exist yet. A few minutes after I came in I heard this amazing beat and bass. Then came the chorus: \u00ab Aimer d amour!! C est aimer comme moi je t’aime\u00bb.<\/p>\n

2 \u2013 Francois Feldman \u2013 You want every night<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

So there was that guy, Fran\u00e7ois Feldman, in the late eighties, singing cheesy french pop on TV… and at this time he never convinced me. When I turned 17\/18 years old, I was surprised to discover that in the early 80\u2019s, Francois was a funk music producer… and a pretty good one!!<\/p>\n

3 \u2013 France Lise \u2013 Pour moi ca va<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

Let’s stay in the eighties \ud83d\ude09 At this period French disco was massive. And there were a lot of releases.
\nSo here is one from a rare disco record that wasn\u2019t famous but is real quality music.<\/p>\n

4 \u2013 Cerrone \u2013 Give me love<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

I have always been huge fan of Marc Cerrone. Even as a kid I felt that this disco was different. High quality & Class. It was not \u201cfunny”…it was serious stuff.<\/p>\n

5 \u2013 Daft Punk \u2013 Around the world<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

With the same “let s conquer the world” energy … I have to select Daft punk – \u2018Around the World’.
\nIn 1996 I had a friend (he’s still my friend) who was close to Thomas Bangalter. Their first album was not yet release but my mate got a cassette with 3\/4 tracks from the album. And then arrived \u2018Around the world’. Believe it or not from that, I stopped playing acoustic funk, said goodbye to 2 or 3 bands I was playing with… and I bought a sampling machine ensoniq ASR10.<\/p>\n

6 \u2013 Idris Cheba \u2013 Si t en veux pas je la remet dans la culotte<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

I know what you think\u2026 he’s not going to talk about \u00ab space \u00bb … no .. I won t. I don t like space. I don t like this minimalist naive pseudo intello-arty disco. Why do you want to find something elitist in Disco!!! Disco is dance, Disco is basic, primitive. You want to dance & you want to fuck… in the same time. Point. So get that one …<\/p>\n

7 \u2013 Ottawan \u2013 D.I.S.C.O<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

We also popular disco hits in France. Like this, D.I.S.C.O from Ottawan. I really love that song but I don’t admit it at all!! \ud83d\ude09 Oh by the way\u2026 there’s a choregraphie that goes with it…enjoy.<\/p>\n

8 \u2013 Alan Braxe \u2013 Bonus Beat<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

It’s time to move to the french touch \/ french house. And as most of you don’t live in France… you don’t have idea how many books\/theory\/movies etc etc has been released in France about this. I think that the wikipedia for French touch in france is changed everyday by every manager\/agent of every French electronic band\/artist. Anyway… here is a perfect disco-french touch track by Alan Braxe. Never released…<\/p>\n

9 \u2013 Pepe Bradock \u2013 Deep Burnt<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

We stay in the same period with another great French track. I know that some of you will find that track not at all disco. For me… it s disco 1000% disco. I want to dance, and I want to fuck… that’s Disco!
\nMr Pepe Bradock \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

10 \u2013 Serge Gainsbourg \u2013 Love on the beat<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

…and for the final track we ll go to the biggest french artist of the 20th century (my point of view): Serge Gainsbourg – Love on the beat.<\/p>\n

Et bien je vous souhaite une belle journ\u00e9e\/soir\u00e9e \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

“Clock Sucker” is available 23 February on Word Up Records & Latebwa<\/em><\/strong> PRE ORDER<\/a><\/p>\n
