Simplicity, sincerity & et voil‡! If you want to understand how French producer Alan Braxe ended up making some of the most important house music records of the late 1990s and early 2000s, you need to understand his modus operandi. Everything has to be simple; and everything has to be sincere. You hear this time and again in Braxes music, from the golden emotional minimalism of Stardusts Music Sounds Better With You, a worldwide hit he produced with Daft Punks Thomas Bangalter and singer Benjamin Diamond, to the perfectly uncluttered house music strut of Intro, his underground anthem with Fred Falke. The Upper Cuts, originally released in 2005, is a compilation that rounded up several of Braxes greatest hits. This newly reissued version of that album adds seven bonus tracks, including the classic Braxe / Falke production Chrystal City, which originally appeared on the Rubicon single; Braxes iconic remix of Britney Spears Anticipating, Youll Stay In My Heart, a tear-jerking Braxe / Falke work that was never properly released; and two completely new tracks that show Braxe at his best. My music is simple, Braxe (nÈ Alain QuÍme) explains. The drums are very simple; the production is simple and the construction is basic. And if you respect that, then your music can be timeless. 1.
