I am indebted to Saline McGuire of Chicago, IL who contacted me regarding a track he had heard on his local radio station by producer and composer St Germain. Unfortunately I was unable to trace the tune to which he referred but I was able to find the sensational ‘Sure Thing’ from St Germain’s 2000 CD ‘Tourist’.
Check it out here. This atmospheric chunk of chill music is a blast.
Frenchman Ludovic Navarre began recording in the early '90s using various aliases. He surfaced as St. Germain in 1994 and released his first album, ‘Boulevard’, in 1996. It featured trumpeter Pascal Ohse and gave a clear indication of the penchant St. Germain had for a fusion of jazz and house music. ‘Tourist', with its fuller complement of musicians, took the concept further and earned release on the Blue Note label.
