A French artist whose real name is Xavier Jamaux. He has been collaborating with several electronic artists in Paris and eventually signed with Yellow Productions, that's where he released his first album, Je T'Aime Je T'Aime, in 1999.
It comes from Versailles where he was part of the Orange group in the late 80's, in the company of Nicolas and Jean-Benoit of Air and Alex Gopher.His album is full of sensitivity, with the added bonus of a passage from Jay Jay Johanson on the single "Two fingers".Je t'aime Je t'aime trips along, hips swaying, trailing its fingers through flowers like some French starlet displaying an easy, laconic sexuality in cinematic slow motion.Combining deep layers of melody, some rough production and subtle hip-hop influences, this has more bite than Air, is less longwinded than Alex Gopher and deliberately slow-paced, contemplative and, above all, very individual.makes excellent Sunday listening.
Jay-Jay Johanson (born 1969) is a Swedish musician and singer-songwriter, best known for his easily recognizable melancholic vocals and his androgynous looks. His music has been generally considered to integrate the trip-hop genre until he deliberately switched his sound to a more electroclash-oriented direction with the 2003 release Antenna.
Lyrics...
He used to sit here on my right side
Telling stories from the past
He gave me shelter and a place to stay
Served me water and bread
Two fingers
Pointing at the stars
Two fingers
On your hand
Two fingers
Showing me the way
Two fingers
She used to sit here on my left side
With her wonderful smile
She read me poems and she kept me warm
Inspiration and love
Two fingers
Pointing at the stars
Two fingers
On your hand
Two fingers
Showing me the way
Two fingers
They used to sit here on my both sides
Made this puppet alive
Two fingers
Pointing at the stars
Two fingers
On your hand
Two fingers
Showing me the way
Two fingers
( Repeat Chorus )

![Wendy & Lisa - Sweet Suite [ King Britt Remix ] [ + Lyrics ]
So I was alerted to this song in the late night/early morning of 24 September however, I did not get the message until after sunrise.
Setting...
Taking me to a scene of eastern Europe, posh lounges in the core of an intense thriller as two become a kin in a smokey section of the club. They notice something familiar yet foreign of the other.
Scouring their minds, in a series of quick flashbacks, all is jumbled with no clear revelations. As they go their separate ways, each wonders of the unseen, unknown energies that were present between them.
Who was she?
Who is he?
A wonderful blend of Beautiful music accompanied by a King Britt remix is instant and automatic - proper vibes. This one does NOT disappoint. Id love to hear a Scuba mix to this as well. Talk about LUSH!
More to come...
[ Lyrics... ]
Til we meet again
Just say when
And I will hold my breath
Until then
I had just arrived in time
To see you leave
And here we go
Beginning at the end
So just say
Friend
And I will stop my heart
Until then
You had just arrived
To see me leave
And here we go
Beginning at the end
Til we meet again
Til we meet again
Til we meet again
Til we meet again Wendy & Lisa - Sweet Suite [ King Britt Remix ] [ + Lyrics ]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NI_8xK0E28Y/mqdefault.jpg)

Lyrics...
Mama been laid off
Papa been laid off
My brothers been laid off
For more than two years now
Ooh cant get a job
Billy cant get a job
Ooh they gotta listen to the blues
Help them to strive
Help them to move on
Help them to have some future
Help them to live long
Help them to live life
Help them to smile
Dont let them stay home and listen to the blues
Papa been laid off
Mama been laid off
Billy cant get a job
For too long too long
Dont let them lose
We gotta give them a chance
Its gonna come back on everyone
If you dont make them dance
Dont let them stay home and listen to the blues
Theres nothing sacred (why )
breathing hatred
We have to face it (why )
No one can take it
And feel no pain
Mama been laid off
Papa been laid off
My brothers been laid off
For more than two years now
Ooh cant get a job
Billy cant get a job
Ooh they gotta listen to the blues
Help them to strive
Help them to move on
Help them to have some future
Help them to live long
Help them to live life
Help them to smile
Dont let them stay home and listen to the blues
One day were gonna wake up
And the ghettos all around
All over my friend
Have you ever seen a man break down
Do you know how that feels
To walk the streets with your head held high
Why, why, why
Oh Lord, have mercy
Did you ever see a man break down
Theres nothing sacred
Breathing hatred
We have to face it
No one can take it
And feel no pain
Ooh did you ever see a man break down Sade Feel No Pain [ + Lyrics ]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NtYzSUcWVYM/mqdefault.jpg)

![Hanna Hais - Il Parlait Pas Français [ Larry Heards Super Deluxe Club Vocal Mix ]
Where do I begin with this one?
The retro sound and yet todays underground vibe runs the gamut with this incredible edit of Hanna Hais classic track. Tricked and treated, Mr. Fingers aka Larry Heard conjures up a super deep offering that captures the mind and soul, delivering that separation in space and time which leaves the weight of the world miles away from the spirit.
Hearing this brings a smile as it reminds me so much of Europe but also the deep sounds of some of New Yorks most posh ultra-lounges. Also makes me think of the missed connecting flight in Paris a few years ago. For some reason I wasnt mad at all as I listened to such tunes, gazing out onto the jetway and at the people at nearby gates and cafes. The French are way too cool.
Maybe Ill go to a lounge soon and soak up the vibe, observe the reactions to the sounds and catch the eye of an onlooker or three, maybe even discover some new sounds to share.
Too cool to dance to this one but should she convince me to my feet, I hope she is ready for what comes with it...
So, hows your evening so far?
Bon soir, ça va fantastic mon amour.

![King Britt feat. Twyla Love of A Lifetime Produced By Vikter Duplaix [ + Lyrics ]
I listen to this song and visualize Twylas thoughts - word for word...
I believe that we all know someone who feels this way, asks these questions, and hold themselves in a low state of moral. Self love is a start that many find it hard to do whether they share this sentiment aloud or not. Heartbroken as friends and those around seem to share their happiness and accomplishments with someone while one feels that one is all along in the world. Breathe in, take in the sun, hear the birds sing, and be Blessed for the day in which one is part of. Love is not something that has to be physically present, as it is within us all. It is up to us how we channel it as it shows itself from others towards us in its own time. Dont settle Ladies and Gents. You shall not live alone and your love will not expire. Your Love awaits you, and shall welcome you when your journey takes to the paths in which you two are destined to meet.
Lyrics...
Never been in love before
Never experienced the beautiful things
That everybody talk about
I wanna know how it feels
Is anyone out there for me?
I just want to share myself openly.
Will I ever find someone to love me for a lifetime?
How long do I have to wait
Before I find my soulmate
Can there be a special one for me
Who will understand my needs
Share himself with me for eternity
Will I ever find someone to love me for a lifetime?
Will I ever find someone to love me for a lifetime?
Can there be a special one for me
Who will understand my needs
Share himself with me
For eternity
Love me for a lifetime
Call me Sweet
Love me for a lifetime
La da da da da da da da daaa
Love me for a lifetime
La da da da da da da da daaa

![Samantha James - Deep Surprise [ + Lyrics ]
So an hour or so ago I was online searching for some nice lounges in London when I found a site that had a lush audio back drop that froze me, as if halted in mid step. The quick panning and echo of the reverb seemed to chime a chord unfamiliar, yet all of a sudden a prolonged longing to hear what was to come in the next measure.
Upon realizing who the vocalist was I quickly went to the hard drive to find the album. How could I have over looked this track???
At this point Im ready to get in traffic and drive to the poshest ultra lounge in the city. Whos game for checking out the scene?
[ Lyrics... ]
Take me on a ride inside your heart tonight
Just you and me,
Take me to live inside the truth.
Sugar, I wanna taste the way you feel inside
All through the night
Forget about the time just close your eyes
Sugar, always though
My heart, it breaks, baby
Oh, let me be the one to come alive
Let me just be such a deep surprise
As the world you know begins to cry
Some might just let it be
If you wanna grow it all must die
Sugar, we can come alive inside your dreams tonight
Live to believe
You are the only one for me
Sugar, always though
My heart, it breaks, baby
Oh, let me be the one to come alive
Let me just be such a deep surprise Samantha James - Deep Surprise [ + Lyrics ]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/R-ajmupM6W4/mqdefault.jpg)
