Laurent Garnier is back again ;-)

Post by Julien »

Hi all !

I've just started reading the book written by Laurent Garnier and a Radio Nova journalist whose
name is "Electrochoc". It tells the story of his life, starting from his first parties in Mandchester. Much music, drug and
a little bit of sex.

It's very interesting. He had the good idea to release
five electronic music sets that (as the book says) should
be listened to while reading the book. The music is
as the book : deeply interesting and enjoyable.

There are lots of interesting playlists included in the book,
you can check them out at http://www.pedrobroadcast.com/ .

Maybe you can translate it?

Or maybe I better get it so I can practice my French.

Sadly, I guess copyright laws applying currently don't
allow me to translate it. Anyway, I'm not skilled enough to do that job. I think it could be an entertaining
way to improve your French, which is already quite good.

I would do a really great job translating it. I could write myself into the story and put naked virgins and serpents in many of the scenes...

Laurent Garnier stars in "The 120 Beats Per Minute of Sodom" by the Marquis de Sloth.

The definitive tale of the rape of the Colleges de Jeunes Filles of the 14th Arrondissement.

Rosy, you can also check for copyleft. Well, I guess it's
a geeky thing. http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/copyleft.ht ... IsCopyleft , the interesting part of it is that it can be applied to something else than computer programs (books for
example). Then you can make sentences like
"Copyleft, all rights reversed" (Taken from "free software, free society", a collection of essay from Richard Stallman).

Nevermind.
