Gasp! This Hollywood Bowl concert might even surpass seeing Dead Can Dance and <a href=\"https:\/\/chimatli.org\/blog\/?p=2574\">Nouvelle Vague<\/a> a few years ago. As you might&#8217;ve noticed, I have a special fondness for all kinds of French music but my tastes these days tend towards <a href=\"https:\/\/chimatli.org\/blog\/?p=2678\">French Cold and New Wave<\/a>. Recently, a friend made me a copy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/Various-So-Young-But-So-Cold-Underground-French-Music-1977-1983\/release\/262190\">So Young but So Cold<\/a>, an excellent compilation of 80s synth-pop and cold wave from France and that&#8217;s where I came across this excellent tune by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/artist\/Jacno\">Jacno<\/a>. I loved his work in Stinky Toys and his collaborations with Elli Medeiros known appropriately as &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/chimatli.org\/blog\/?p=2012\">Elli et Jacno<\/a>.&#8221; Sadly, Jacno died of cancer on November 6, 2009 (excellent tribute <a href=\"http:\/\/www.guardian.co.uk\/music\/musicblog\/2009\/dec\/09\/remembering-jacno\">here<\/a>). Coincidentally, almost exactly two years earlier Fred Chichin of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ritamitsouko.com\/\">Rita Mitsouko<\/a> also passed away from cancer. <\/p>\n<p>Bonus!
