""Ludovic Navarre,together with Laurent Garnier and Shazzwas one of the originators of the French electronic music scene. Since'91, under various pseudonyms(SUB SYSTEM,DEEPSIDE,MODUS VIVENDI,St GERMAIN and more...) he was instrumental in initiating the techno and jazz-house side of the French scene. His entire early works have not been available since demise of the FNAC MUSIC - DANCE DIVISION in '94. This album represents his quintessential works on FNAC MUSIC & F COMMUNICATIONS from '92 to '96 and gives a comprehensive view of the amazing quality and diversity of his talent. We all look forward to more from Ludovic Navarre... soon!""

"Ludovic Navarre has inspired countless deep house producers with his releases on F Comms and FNAC Music. This collection embraces an astounding spectrum of influences from jazz, techno, blues, afrobeat and latin music to be one of the finest house releases this year. 'Alabama Blues' combines touches of ambient house with blues, while 'Move' and 'French' are more techno-influenced. 'Modus Vivendi' remains a classic. In short, this album will appeal to a wide variety of house and techno music fans and is the perfect antidote to the flood of 'This Is Ibiza Trance Anthems Vol. 95'-type records released so far this year."
