Two sorely missed musical genres, fused into a whole new being that's guaranteed to put a smile on your face and a rocket in your pants!

Here comes another crazed, disco-funk, genre-spanning mix from Canada's sex jammin' Chromeo, featuring classic cuts from Sharon Redd, Jellybean, Herbie Hancock, Warp 9, even Robert Palmer and Modern Romance. Un Joli Mix Pour Toi picks out divine disco-funk oddities alongside some harder to find boogiefied dancefloor classics to provide us with another crate-digging winner from Belgium's Eskimo Recordings.

Chromeo are Pee Thug and Dave 1, best friends since their Montreal adolescence, virtuoso musicians, walking hip hop encyclopedias and the only successful Arab/Jew partnership since the dawn of human culture - well, probably!

Discovered in their hometown by fellow Canadian DJ Tiga, Chromeo fuse their penchants for two sorely missed musical genres into a wholly new thing. Pee, the brown-skinned Quebecois street tough, brings analogue synth basslines and drum machine wizardry à la Cameo and Prince. Dave, the Semitic bookworm contributes melodic tales of urban romance that would make Phil Collins shed a tear. Together, their blend of rigorously catchy song structures, memorable hooks and twirling guitar solos conjures up images of a sophisticated, thugged-out Hall & Oates - except you don't secretly suspect that they make out!

These guys are to Rockwell what Andrew WK is to Meatloaf. Live, Chromeo is more fun than being forced to smoke crack at gunpoint by Rick James; something that their debut LP, She's In Control, will testify to. Indeed, this duos mission is to make slick-ass lover's funk with nary a trace of irony; that's right, no irony.

Un Joli Mix Pour Toi see Pee and Dave go back to their collective roots with a selection of obscure boogie gems, old school slick 80¹s funked-up pop and solid gold disco nuggets. From the rolling bassline of Warp 9's No Man Is An Island to the slick guitar-led funk of Sharon Redd's Beat The Street and soft-focus guitar solo on Modern Romance's Burn It Up, Chromeo's Joli Mix is guaranteed to put a smile on your face and a rocket in your pants.
