Daft punk.

There are too many brilliant French electronic artists

but in no particular order and currently

Daft Punk
Black Strobe (Ivan Smagghe and Arnaud Rebotini - seriously, anything they do)Justice
SebastiAn
DJ Medhi
Air
my favourite Frenchman, Francois (aka Kirmann)
Ummm... No, Ho Fo, Seb Tellier ain't electro.. he's dreamy piano loops and more jazz than anything.

Rose-Kitten | 24 Dec '06, 16:33 | X | ^ This | Reply
- Noze!
  
  my favourites of the moment.
  Second BlackStrobe and SebastiAn.
  Ettienne De Crecy?

    - my justice anecdote of the day:
      
      the scene: my bedroom, wrapping presents.
      enter dad's wife's girlfriend.
      sountrack: nina nastasia
      
      girl: "dont you like cheese?"
      me: "no"
      girl: "so what do you dance to in nightclubs?"
      *christopher puts on Waters of Nazereth*
      girl: "how the hell do you dance to that?"
      me: "its dance music"
      girl: "do they say anything"
      *christopher shakes his head and puts on The Knife*

        either way, the guy is a genius
        
        would appear that the new album rumours are just that, unless someone can google better than me.

A french electronica artist.....

doesn't always sound particularly electronic but by far and away THE best:
Kid Loco

the_sad_oak_hunt | 10 Jan '07, 21:42 | X | ^ This | Reply
Daft Punk came close, but for me it's

1. Etienne de Crecy
2. Etienne de Crecy
3. Etienne de Crecy
4. Etienne de Crecy
5. Etienne de Crecy

Aside from that, most things coming out of Ed Banger are pretty ace. And Justice are most definitely French

Stereo Total?

are they french/electronic? I saw them supporting the Strokes at Cambridge Corn Exchange back in '02. They were pretty cool.
