Eight years ago, when the mention of French pop was still a cue for well-worn jokes about Johnny Halliday, Parisian producer Etienne De Crécy picked the best of France's new breed, including Air and Alex Gopher, to collaborate on an album called Super Discount. Loosely themed around a supermarket, it was a clever and classy introduction to Gallic dance music.

This time, the tracks take their names from file-sharing applications such as Limewire and Soul Seek, illegal free music being the ultimate super discount. Where the first Super Discount was mellow and organic, the follow-up is dark and synthetic. It's more of a niche concern but within that niche, thanks to De Crécy's playful versatility and talents such as Gopher and Cassius, it's often exceptional, from Audio Galaxy's bubbling, Daft Punk-style robodisco to Soul Seek's dense, hypnotic web of criss-crossing synthesisers. The first Super Discount was a masterpiece. This is merely very, very good.
