BEST OF 2004: music - nouvelle vague

released earlier this year, french producers Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux decided to record an album of bossa nova covers of their favorite new wave bands of the 80's. everything from joy division to modern english gets the chilled out groovy remake. but in the end, after the initial curiosity factor wears out, you realise that this debut album is actually quite a beautiful collection of wonderful songs that have stood the test of time.
