DJ Mehdi - Lucky Boy At Night
Review by Jack Foley
IndieLondon Rating: 3 out of 5
In November 2006, Ed Banger Records released their
very first album, Lucky Boy by DJ Mehdi. Since then
things have changed significantly...
DJ Mehdi, alongside his label buddies Justice,
Sebastian and Busy P, have shaken up clubland!
Frenchman Mehdi, in particular, has tried to inject
a healthy dose of soul, backbone and disco fever
into the scene and original version of Lucky Boy, I
Am Somebody, Signature and Wee Bounce have helped
to form the soundtrack to some of the hottest
parties of the past six months.
Mehdi's appeal is such that when Ed Banger threw
their fourth birthday party in Paris in March,
1,000 party animals crammed into the Espace Pierre
Cardin and rocked out till the very early morning.
Determined to capitalise on this growing success,
Ed Banger felt it was right to celebrate these
night-time antics with the release of the
remastered Lucky Boy At Night, features (until now)
exclusive mixes, new tracks, a new tracklisting and
a whole host of names worth dropping!
Remixes and edits come from Daft Punk's Thomas
Bangalter (his first in ages!!), NYC producer Kenny
Dope, Switch, Outlines and DJ Mehdi himself.
There's a new Lucky Girl version of the title track
for the girlie-girls, which features Mehdi's very
own loved one Fafi on lead vocals, as well as new
track Survivol which has been slaying crowds in
Mehdi's club sets!
The result is a lively showcase of Mehdi's skills
that's certain to arrive as an absolute gift for
his ever-growing fanbase. But it's also fairly hit
and miss.
Some of the tracks are definite dancefloor fillers,
such as Hot-O-Momo and the original version of
Lucky Boy with its lively guitar licks.
But others are a little too bland, trancey or
club-scene generic. There's also something very
French and occasionally very '80s surrounding a lot
of the beats and electronics that adds little to
the recent revival(...)
