Ok, so I know Ed Banger is old news to some….. but they have never been discussed on Ca Va Cool before….. SO……… une petite histoire… The French electro label, Ed Banger Records, that was founded just four years ago by Pedro Winter (aka Busy P and Daft Punk’s manager) has only eight signed artists AND they are all INCREDIBLE. Oui oui. Incredible, I lurve them all. The favourites of Ed Rec, Jus†ice (made up of Frenchmen, Xavier de Rosnay & Gaspard Augé), are currently on their first world tour and I was lucky enough to see them live at Metropolis in Montreal this past October. The show was insane! They also recently won two well-deserved awards at the MTV European Music Awards (Video Star & Best New French Artist) félicitations Jus†ice!!!! Ok ok…… the MUUUUSIQUE…. Jus†ice pretty much sounds like hmmm… Jackson 5 mixed with Daft Punk and….. Metallica??…They create a sound that blends electro with a clear rock influence and some of their remixes have a definite 70s pop vibe…… My description really isn’t doing them any justice though (no pun intended).
….So here are a few/alot of my favourite Jus†ice songs, remixes, etc. as well as a lil’ intro by Mr. Oizo for Ed Rec. Vol. 2 that was released in March…. It features all the artists…… Check em’out….VIVE LA FRANCE!

lol, i love this music video =)
justice is pretty fucking sweet…
have you noticed a lot of music videos have been doing stuff similar to this? like Kanye West & T-Pain “Good Life”, or The GO “You Go Bangin’ On”?… even the commercial for Ed Rec vol II does the same thing too, lol
i know… everyone wants to be like ed banger…… actually the guy who did all the graphics and tees for the Justice video, ‘So Me’, is the art director for Ed Banger Records…. he does all the album cover work, posters, promo stuff and tees for the label….that’s why the ed rec vol II commercial is similar…. he also did the “Good Life” video….. hence the similarity…. if you like his stuff he has myspace you can check out and there’s a link to a couple of the venders that sell his tshirts on the ed banger website!!!
Comment by Justine on 18-11-07I can’t really take anything new out of Justice’s music. They just sound to me like Daft Punk. They are getting tired of the comparison but there’s nothing I can do. I am more a fan of Simian Mobile Disco… I think what they did this year was more original. You like them?
Comment by Eduardo on 01-12-07yes! i do…. sleep deprivation & love are my faves by them i think…. i like it’s the beat…. im kind of sick of it now though…. but i still love Justice…as mainstream as they have become
