Polka! Cherie! Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi? Bordel! Baby-Boom! A new special edition in the Le Pop series. Perhaps the most offbeat yet. Instead of focusing on the current Chanson-scene as usual, this disc is a party compilation that is fun, is independent of release plans, and that shows just how danceable and versatile the modern Chanson is. Listen to Le Pop La Boum, and it is guaranteed to put a satisfied smile on your face. This new Le Pop is clever, energetic, full of humour and extremely diverse.

Sales Information:

The idea of “La Boum” was born long ago. Since the beginning of the series, the Le Pop DJ-Team (Oliver Fröschke and Rolf Witteler) have played their compilations to promote them – at release parties, at special events like German-French festivities and on the many Le Pop tours with the stars of the scene. Over the years, some tracks have emerged as favourites, that are sure to get people on the dance-floor time and time again. The series has always been rhythmically diverse, but a compilation of new francophone music, with one track as danceable as the next, is something the Le Pop DJ-Team has dreamt of for a long time. A unique idea, that has finally been realised.

The span of musical variety on this album could not be broader. From the playfully cutesy opener “Polka” to the crude 60’s-Garage hit finale “Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi?”, “Le Pop La Boum” takes you on both a geographical and a stylistic journey past the most daring corners of the world of francophone music. From southern French Dancehall to the YéYé-Punk colossus “Bordel” – from the Indie party-hit “Singapore Slang” from Montréal to the recklessly drummed, high-speed Rock’n’Roll track “Corinne” by Mathieu Boogaerts. Even Benjamin Biolay shows himself in a new light, as a Cumbia crooner singing in duet with the Uruguayan-Argentinian Reggae singer Alika. Julian Baer’s Chanson-Funk and the young newcomer Cléa Vincent’s retro Disco track are equally refreshing.

Just like all other editions of this series, Le Pop La Boum not only works well on the dance-floor, but is a compilation you can enjoy at home as well. There are also plenty of new names to check out, that have previously not been featured by Le Pop. Apart from Mathieu Boogaerts, Alexis HK and Benjamin Biolay, all names introduced on “Le Pop La Boum” are new.


Luce – the refreshingly unconventional casting-show winner (Nouvelle Star). Her second album “Chaud” was written together with Mathieu Boogaerts.

Radiomatic – Fredda and Pascal Parisot’s Yéyé cover project

Call Me Poupée – the obscure and long-forgotten Indie-Burlesque duo from Montreal.

Cléa Vincent – the newcomer from Perpignan, highly celebrated by the press.

Julien Baer – the Soul-Chanson crooner from Paris with a super-soft voice (his brother plays Asterix in the movies)

Arthur H – the smokey-voiced son of Chanson star Jacques Higelin, today more famous than his father.

Oai Star – spin-off of Massilia Sound System with their radio hit “Cheri(e)”.

Fabulous Trobadors – the legendary duo from Toulouse cross Dancehall with Occitan Folk.

Nôze – the celebrated club scene live-act with electronic Chanson.

Thomas Dutronc – the son of Jacques Dutronc and Francoise Hardy revives Hot Club de France.

Agnès Bihl – has toured with Charles Aszanvour, here singing a long-forgotten Swing duet.

Alister – crosses Yéyé with Punk and is produced by Baxter Dury.

Marcel Bontempi – his 60’s-Garage hit is played at every Le Pop party. The track was released on vinyl twenty years ago, and is now available on CD and as a download for the first time.


“La Boum” is the third special edition in the Le Pop series, after the duet sampler “En duo” and “Les Filles”, and throws an entirely new light on the vibrant Neo-Chanson scene. The regular series will continue soon.
