Sebastien Tellier
'Sexual Sportswear'
(Lucky016)
Released:17.12.07
Sebastien Tellier, author of 2005's tear-jerking classic, 'La
Ritournelle', returns with ‘Sexual Sportswear’, the first release from
his forthcoming studio album ‘Sexuality’.
Now, even more than ever, he's the one true artist who clearly connects
the vanguard of France's modern generations of musical magicians, from
Gainsbourg to Air (he was initially discovered as a member of their classic
2000 band), through Mr.Oizo (Seb was co-writer and performer on the
electro-classical club anthem 'Stunt' and contributor to the forthcoming Steak
OST) and the new electronic Ed Banger exporters, of whom, Tellier's
near-namesake, SebastiAn contributes a sensually smooth remake to
illicit disco fever.
The gel which joins are the genial pioneers, Daft Punk, one half
of which, Guy Manuel De Homem-Christo, has produced this and the seminal
new album, 'Sexuality' of which this single will be the first fruits, pressed
on to pink 12" vinyl and limited to just 500 copies for the UK.
‘Sexuality’ will be Sebastien’s third studio album following
2005’s ‘Politics’,
& 2001’s ‘L’Incroyable Vérité ’.
Despite it's instrumentalism 'Sexual Sportswear' gives clear indication of the
emotional delivery that separates Tellier from his peers and awaits us on the
forthcoming full-length which will be released February 2008.
The single is available
as a strictly limited, pink vinyl packaged, twelve inch vinyl and a not so
lovingly packaged download.
