Recommended! More French goodness from American-born April March, aka Elinor Blake. Don't believe us? The New Yorker named "Chrominance Decoder" one of the top ten albums of 1999. "There's something sexy about a girl that sings in French (both linguistically and stylistically), but besides Elinor Blake's charming pixie voice, the star of this show is producer/arranger/composer Bertrand Burgalat, who has put together a feather-soft but substantial bed of trippy music that heightens the image of April March as an ultra-hip, haughty French chick. There is little rock influence to be found on Chrominance Decoder, only go-go organs, twirling horns, rolling drums, faux-jazz piano, and hollow-knock percussion of the sort that one finds in France's reaction against rock & roll, ye-ye." ?-Stanton Swihart, All Music Guide
