question about st. germain 12"ep

[old disco jock]

french traxx ep (1993) is this their best deep house ep ever?

[underground_paris]

Everything depends of your taste mate!
But it's my favourite too, aswell. :)

You can check out their St Germain-en-laye LP on Fcom. Great tracks too!
I like "So lonely" (available on EP too) and "Organ Talk".

Boulevard was great too.

Best wishes for your search.

Lots of magic St germain moments. Could'nt limit to one EP but the French Traxx & Motherland EP's are well worth getting....

Alabama Blues
Jack the groove
The Black man
The First time
Deep in it
Whats new
Rose Rouge
So flute
Latin note

All still get regular plays :)

Wonder if Ludovic Navarre is gonna produce a new album soon...

What I heared is that he stopped everything, he got loooot of money with his last two albums (millions of copy sold!), I just know he bought a big house in Montmartre (for those who know Paris, it's the nicest place to got a house), and that he was chillin' without new musical projects.
Btw, the label Fnac Music has -in my opinion- released the best things of the french deep house scene from the early 90's. Shazz, Laurent Garnier, St Germain, DJ Deep, all at their best. :)

For that specific era, would agree with you on that. The late 90's I thought Straight Up was a very solid French label as well.

Don't blame Ludovic for buying a house in Montmartre! Beautiful area indeed :)

Unfortunately yes...so much of the stuff in demand from the early 90's (in particular) is so good, that the original buyers don't want to sell it! I went record shopping in NYC last June, & there was next to nothing available from that era & I went everywhere! Its only people with money problems who have to sell off their record collections on discogs/ebay who'll charge an arm and a leg coz there's so few of them. I seriously think certain classic labels, eg, Prescription could re-release their whole catalogue & you'd get loads of interested buyers. Can't see it happpening though.

It was like Sam Goody (not even sure if they are still around) that I tried to purchase the cd from.

gonna have to do the itunes or waitem out kinda thing!

Were you here to get on the tony humphries is selling his vinyle movement last summer!

if not you might wanna try and get a hold of kris Flower and he might be able to tell you whats left.

You might wanna try Gemm...I'd be very surprised if a CD dating back to the early 90's is still out there available for first hand buy.

Yeah, Humphries has offloaded stuff quite a few times from what I've read. I bet there was a mini roadblock in Jersey last summer lol!

[underground_paris]

In my opinion, Discogs is the place where it's the less expansive.
For the Hump vinyl sell: don't know if there was a roadblock but the records were expansive!

To Passiondeep: I don't blame St Germain :)

For sure, If I was Ludovik, would have done exactly the same! but like any artist, I'm sure he'll be wanting to create something in his spare time ;)
We'll see....

[deepsouth]

tourist is my favorite. french traxx closely second.

st. germain is an artist you can't go wrong with.
