get it.

When is it released? Can't wait for this - have most of his stuff on vinyl but looking forward to being able to play it on CD.

Yes indeed it's a good one. I like how Valletta Fanfares keeps building up, and you're expecting it to burst into mayhem like in the original Fanfares, but instead it just ends.

I think the album is out at the start of April in France, the end of April in the rest of the world.

The single, My Friend Dario, is out on April 4th with a remix by Vitalic's alterego, Dima.

My Friend Dario is good enough, but not as good as Fanfares or La Rock of course.

The annoying thing is Vitalic is only just getting released, and im all ready growing tired of his sound. That heavy pounding baseline is present in most of his songs and is really the only thing that give them their power and they all follow a familliar format. Don't get me wrong i love his sound at the moment but its a question of how long will its appeal last.

well hes been around for the last 4 years at least and had fairly big success in that time, so its lasted that long anyway

Believe it or not the album as a whole sounds quite different to the tracks that have already been released, la rock, oney part 1, fanfares etc. It is very diverse and they are the most 'pounding' tracks on the album.

If you ar an evil warez monkey like myself it is already released.

Some of the non-typical Vitalic tracks are among the best on the album, like "The Past".

His remix of Cish Cash by Basement Jaxx is very good too.

I've uploaded a good quality MP3 of his session at Maida Vale for the John Peel show on Radio 1 from December last year.

I'll have to watch the bandwidth on this, mightn't be up there for too long.

Source: Digital Radio -> Mini Disc -> MPC -> MP3

He's introduced at the start by Rob Da Bank.

The tracklist is:

Poney Part 1 (Live Version)
My Friend Dario
You Prefer Cocaine (Live Version)
Basement Jaxx - Cish Cash (Vitalic Remix)
Fanfares
Newman
Daniel Miller - Warm Leatherette (Vitalic Remix)
La Rock 01 (Live Version)
Crash Course In Science - Cardboard Lamb (Vitalic Remix)
My Friend Dario (Encore)

His remix of Cardboard Lamb is unreleased. The Warm Leatherette cover/remix will be a B-side to the My Friend Dario single I think. The versions of Poney, La Rock and You Prefer Cocaine are also unreleased.

Enjoy!
