Villeneuve - Oh No

If you can get past the babel fish generated biography Villeneuve is a pretty impressive prospect. His debut album may have thus far been passed over but when quality in the form of ‘Oh No’ lies in waiting it will surely only be a matter of time before his star is in the ascendancy. ‘Oh No’ featured on both the EP of the same name and the ‘First Date’ LP from 2005. It’s an intelligent piece of dance music, featuring tidy nods to indie rock, Michael Caine and a female vocalist (Mélanie Pain) who doesn’t sound like a paid extra. It’s avoidance of cliché is particularly refreshing as is it’s undoubted potential to a mass audience. KD
