Tour de France: François Kevorkian
Tour de France: François Kevorkian
Label: EMI Music (Netherlands)
Catalog#: 1A K062-20 0338 6
Format: Vinyl, 12"
Country: Netherlands
Released: 1983
Genre: Electronic
Style: Electro
From: tuneseeker
I always prefered this version of Tour de France over the original. François Kevorkian is one of the originals from the disco era. He started DJing in the late 70's and through the influence of the Latin Rascals and others started producing tape edits of popular tracks. The above track is one of his better known tape edits/remix.
"From early DJ gigs in the disco wonderland of late-'70s New York City to his current stint at Manhattan's Body and Soul, Kevorkian has been at dance music's epicenter — be it disco, new wave or house — since its inception. As a producer, mixer and remixer, he's worked with Larry Levan, Arthur Baker, The Smiths, The Cure, Cabaret Voltaire, U2, Eurythmics, Ashford and Simpson, Mick Jagger, Diana Ross, Depeche Mode, Kraftwerk and Yazoo and others. Disco devotees will remember his Gold-certified mix of Musique's “Push Push in the Bush” issued on Prelude Records, the influential disco label he helped run as head of A&R from 1978 to 1982. In 1987, he opened the recording facility Axis Studios, which has attracted leading artists such as Madonna, Todd Terry, Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige." - Jahsonic
check out Remixes, Vol. 5: Francois Kevorkian. The Kraftwerk remix isn't on that you'll have to get the 12" and Amazon don't do 12's :) - maybe have a look at HTFR.

I know Forbidden Colours is the big collaboration between Sakamoto and Sylvian but I jst prefer this one. For some reason Bamboo seems to have stood the test of time better.
