Rennes , French pop duo cultivates his idealism with a first album produced by the master Yuksek , built to treat troubled souls and accompany sleepless nights.

"Who wants to regain his youth , has only to resume his folly ," wrote Oscar Wilde in The Picture of Dorian Gray. Juveniles lost neither the first nor the second never stopped . And if you still hear the need for youth passes, two French , them , certainly will not see the same thing in the eye : since their debut on the Parisian label Kitsuné pioneer until the arrival of their first album this year , Jean -Sylvain Le Gouic and Thibaut Doray have drawn their youth shield against boredom, and rollers choruses bulwark against attacks forced into adulthood , formidable , feared pass.

We Are Young proclaimed they casually on their first single released in 2011. The three words, like the name of the group had nothing trivial : one simple formula slap the title stood out as a mantra, a declaration of war cheeky loan duo to take up arms to defend his last bastion of adolescence. But what good chopping big guns and sharp knives when you have any office much more subtle and sharp argument ? Utopian and carnal pop that eternal dream and plays endlessly with the fire. The bubbling Rennes, HQ two boys, We Are Young crosses in France to cross borders to punctuate the sleepless nights a stateless youth who could not care less of the nationality principle and refuses to sleep quietly by fear of never waking up . Juveniles in , we took fatal electro -pop first language option applied eighties - needless to say that the degree is handily wins with honors.

If looking towards Manchester Smiths and New Order , it is on French soil yet the duo launched its first live attacks. An explosive move to Rennes Transmusicales lights the wick. The Festival Inrockuptibles 2012, which devotes its front the same year, fanning the embers. Juveniles shows himself wild, bluffing efficiency, but both surrounded by English Hot Chip with whom they share a donation to shake hips and calves without respite. Because this is where the strength of the group : a mastery of live allowing them all extravagances , unstoppable intensity and entire energy used to grip the audience, never letting go until the leave haggard, brain fusion and legs exhausted. Fiery wisp , the duo then joined the blaze of pop that has only one idea in mind: to raise the tan on the cheeks of young people to the pure ideals and reckless insolence.

And who better than Yuksek two Britons could they get to support them in their business of conquering dancefloors and broken hearts ? With his second album Living on the Edge of Time , the one we knew virtuoso electro implacable showed he also mastered the language of pop fingertips - a vein for the duo itself bilingual , which s is eager to spin the studio to record Rémois part of his first album. "We had the opportunity to meet before Yuksek and the current is very well. I think we have a very similar temperament and it helped us a lot to spend these months locked together. Was enormously learned at his side, to do more with fewer elements , not to fall into the same across each piece , "says Jean -Sylvain whose voice dandy crooner knows how to be as elegant qu'éthérée throughout Juveniles .

Do more without overdoing it : this is what the duo managed to accomplish on this album where we find both the idealism of the early pop group , his penchant for eighties synths and beats that fatal would not deny their smart producer . More than a collection of bombs to blow pop clubs ( Void ) Juveniles meets especially twelve tracks all states of a youth that can pass in a split second , total bliss (We Are Young) at the deepest spleens ( Washed Away) . But rather than drowning in melancholy, both boys prefer tame by making dance (All I Ever Wanted) and counteract the sadness sensuality ( Elisa Adriatic ) to allow the passage all the eccentricities as the very disco Fantasy. You can see the shadow of Smiths hover over Weekend At Mine, the Blood Orange on Summer Night , and the Phoenix on Strangers anthem that proves Juveniles may be born on the wrong side of the Channel, they do nevertheless remain a full member of a family of musicians who speak French fluently and pop without the slightest accent.
