The continuing success of the ‘Drive’ soundtrack – still registering healthy sales almost two years on from the film’s release – is due in no small part to French electronica artist College, whose track 'A Real Hero' (featuring Electric Youth) was selected as the main theme to the film by director Nicolas Winding Refn. With over 13million views on College's YouTube channel alone, ‘A Real Hero’ has proved to have a life beyond the film. Now Invada Records, the label behind the hit vinyl edition of ‘Drive’, are to release College’s debut album, ‘Secret Diary’, and debut EP ‘Teenage Color’, on physical formats for the first time. Available May 6th, both titles will be released on vinyl and CD, with limited edition coloured vinyl also available. Fans of the ‘Drive’ soundtrack, John Carpenter, Daft Punk, Geoff Barrow's DROKK project and other analogue-synth heads will find something to love on these beautifully atmospheric records. The 80’s-esque cover art for both albums is perfectly executed, providing another reason to invest in College, particularly in the limited edition coloured vinyl editions - ‘Secret Diary’ is available in Lipstick Red or Cyan Blue, and ‘Teenage Colour’ in Neon Pink or Yellow.

french poetic minimal sensual electronica
College, in Grellier's words, was an attempt "to synthesize into my music the emotions of my childhood" and was greatly influenced by American 1980s pop-culture, "80's soaps and an aesthetic which I particularly like: color, images, silvery films and the sun - images of Los Angeles, Chicago and all of the other cities that [...] continue to fascinate me."This is beautiful mesmerizing melodic synth beats that take you where no man has gone before. Love this album - like John Carpenter, Kraftwerk, valerie, and experimental music of Klaus Schulze, Harmonia, Mike Old field, Tuxedo Moon, and other new french electronica. Also reminds me of Johnny jewels label ' Italians do it better'. in this case it is the French.Buy it and support them. The driving song 'a real hero' was featured in the film 'Drive'. their EP Teenage color is brilliant.

Fantastico ! Da ascoltare assolutamente. Non inventa nulla questo artista francese ma è molto raffinato. Piacevole diretto ma soprattuto non alienante. Regalatelo ad un amico che capisce di musica!
