Mlle Caro & Franck Garcia

Their minimalist beats, laid-back synths and melancholic vocals make Mlle Caro and Franck Garcia's debut album a no-brainer for Buzzin' Fly, owned by Ben Watt of Everything But the Girl: '80s electropop and '00s dance music are as at home together in the duo's work as they are in their boss' lengthy biography. The album is a delicious balancing act between taut indie-dance and pensive deep house. "Dead Souls" takes a page from New Order's playbook, slashing guitars and all; "Mon Ange" won't leave a dry eye in the house. Ewan Pearson wraps up the set with an unusually understated rework.
