Four records for anyone who thinks the French touch was one trick. It was, and the trick was good enough to survive being done four completely different ways.

Stardust / Music Sounds Better with You
The trick at its purest: one guitar figure, one filter, one line sung until it stops being a lyric. Start here, because nothing else in the genre is this complete.
Alan Braxe & Fred Falke / Intro
The trick done with strings and no ceiling. Six minutes that only go upwards, and still the record DJs reach for when a room needs lifting off the floor.
Justice / D.A.N.C.E.
The trick done wrong on purpose — filter distorted past clipping, children's choir on top. Divisive then, and the proof that the tradition could still produce something nobody expected.
