French Friday is back and it is indeed a mighty fine evening to re-launch the sucker.
Le Knight Club is made up of Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo & Eric Chedeville. Guy-Man is of course 1/2 of Daft Punk and Eric aka. Rico the Wizzard is a co-founder of Pumpking Records (more on Rico with his new work on the Darling label can be read at the bottom of here).
These two close friends started up the raddest, bad-ass French house Crydamoure record label back in 1997. This label screams the classic French filtered sound and it should NEVER be forgotton. It featured everyone from the Buffalo Bunch to DJ Sneak.
Le Knight Club had numerous releases on Crydamoure, around 9 quality 12″s. I’ve put up a nice spread of their work and also remixes they have done in the past. I really can’t express my love them. Bisous!
MP3: Le Knight Club – Santa Claus [1997 CRYDA 001]
MP3: Le Knight Club – Troobadoor [1998 CRYDA 003]
(Samples: Alder Ray & The Fame Gang – Just Because the Package’s Been Opened)
MP3: Le Knight Club – Mirage [1998 CRYDA 003]
(Samples: SKYY – Call Me)
MP3: Le Knight Club – Intergalactik Disko [1998 CRYDA 004]

And now for the remixes, starting off with one done for Raw Man that was also on Crydamoure..

MP3: Fantastic Plastic Machine – Philosophy (Le Knight Club Remix)
MP3: Phoenix – Too Young (Le Knight Club Mix)
MP3: Syndicated People – Be Right! (Dirty Grandpa Mix by Le Knight Club vs. Play Paul)
Finally, one of my favourite songs period. If I had a top ten list of ‘Favourite Tracks of All Time’, this would be in it..
MP3: Zoot Woman – Taken It All (Le Knight Club Remix)
Woops, and how could I forget LKC’s edit of Aloud’s ‘Undersea’ – this was released on Raw Man’s (Buffalo Bunch) label We Rock Music.

This is up there with the lemur blog D.A.N.C.E post as the greatest post in music blog history.
if only everyday could be a French Friday!
oh super nice. we need more posts like this
thanks alot
Farken’ oath. One Fierce Post; thanking you oh-so-kindly.
Is this Le Knight Club remix of Technologic legit? I can’t find any info on the web about it.
Dan: I think you are correct // pretty sure some fan just did it and labeled it as LKC.
I agree, “the classic French filtered sound and it should NEVER be forgotton”

really more of a bangalter man but this post is indeed intimidatingly good
many thanks for these tracks
I have nearly all of these, what a label !!!!
The zoot woman track is unreal. Play this on the best days or at a funeral.
le knight club has a place in my heart!…..terrific post my friend!!
The daft punk remix is legit.
thanks a lot,
one of the greatest mp3blogposts ever.
Awesome! thanks for these Fantasic Mp3’s! Love tha whole of the daft family!
Technologic remix is NOT LEGIT. From what I know, it was actually made by a guy called DJ Alive. It is not at all like LKC’s style and come on, lets think about this logically, if Le Knight Club made a remix of Daft Punk, surely it wouldve been on an official release, seeing that one of LKC’s members is IN DAFT PUNK?
Yeah I would have to agree.
best. post. ever.
Amazing post, but only at 160kbps quality.
would love to have these at 320k
even better if you learn French before: http://www.frenchsapnishonline.com, it is free
Santa Claus is perhaps one of the greatest House tracks ever made.
Thanks so much for these. I’ve been searching high and low for Troobadoor/Mirage for ages!
