"In just a couple of months, thanks to explosive live shows, radical remixes for Daft Punk, Trabant, Teki Latex and most recently Bloc Party, Para One turned from pioneer of the so-called New French Sound to rising dance star. His debut album Epiphanie is starting to come up in 'Best of 2006' lists and the first single off the album, 'Dudun-Dun,' was clearly one of the biggest indie dance hits of the year. After the massive electro onslaught of 'Dudun-Dun,' this second single showcases a somewhat softer side. 'Midnight Swim' is almost a song, it's a hymn to some strange, elegiac version of Ibiza, shuffling in silicon sand. It's Balearic, affecting; it swells and engulfs. We know somebody who used it as a wedding song and it makes perfect sense." Includes remixes by Riton, Surkin and Beckett & Taylor.
