Aside from this, is anyone starting to notice the creeping influence of French house worming its way back into the hearts and minds of the EDM cognoscenti. Ark, Jef K, Pépé Bradock, Chloe, Nôze, and the rest of the Circus Comapny bandwagon have rolled into town and seem to show no signs of leaving. Coupled with this Gallic invasion, we have to add the trend that abounds at the moment of slowing shit d o w n. Nicolas Jaar, MCDE, and nearly everyone else seems quite content to let shit rumble along at 115-120 bpm for hours at a time. I was relistening to Ricardo's 'Blood on my Hands' remix the other day, undoubtedly one of his tamer works, and that clocks in at a staggering 128, a tempo perhaps more readily associated with gurnered I-Tie wraparound-beshaded tech-house than anything current and "housey".
