Nouvelle Vague
by dj: Waxsmith
The French group Nouvelle Vague takes their favorite songs of the New Wave era and performs them as cool, loungey Bossa Nova tracks. Boasting a line-up of like-minded artists (Anja Garbarek, Camille) as guest vocalists, the recipe makes for some unique flavor. They have also released some excellent compilations, selecting some of the artists and tunes that inform their sound, like Soundtrack greats Michel Legrand, Lalo Schifrin, and Ennio Morricone. Now you can check out the group (and their friends) in the new self-explanatory DJ Crate Nouvelle Vague from Waxsmith. Ooh-la-la!
