Warp are chuffed to announce the signing of Jackson, the hotly-tipped 25-year-old Parisian producer whose extraordinary music has enchanted the electronic world for a few years now. Best known for 2003’s ‘Utopia’ single and his remix of M83’s ‘Run Into Flowers’, Jackson Fourgeaud is one of the most exciting and original new electronic talents to emerge from France since Daft Punk. He describes his wild, romantic electronic pop music as "antique futurism", a "style orgy" that sounds like nothing you’ve heard before.
Warp releases the eagerly awaited debut album ‘Smash’ by Jackson & His Computer Band this autumn, preceded by a single in the summer. Jackson recorded the album over four years at home and in various studios in Paris. Vocalists on the album include his mother, Paula Moore, a successful singer in the 80s, his young niece, and rap sage Mike Ladd. In the past, Jackson has remixed Air, Dead Combo, Vanessa Paradis, Freeform 5, and Pepe Braddock.
This year, Jackson has DJed at three parties in London and was invited by Luciano to spin at a Cadenza party in Berlin.
Jackson plays at the Vasarely Festival on June 4th in Aix en Provence.
He is currently working on a live show to be unveiled later this year.

As long as he doesn't sound like Daft Punk there's a chance of goodness.

oh no no, not at all. its just ive hear denough f french guys / bands to know that its majority of them that i was speakign about, you know. really, whole french culture is kinda "soft", so as music. it doesnt bother me as i dont listen to any french stuff anymore, but i will allways take my part in discussion, even if you think im prejudice, which im not as i said at start of my post, so i think i will just end my post right now.

I like both michael jackson AND daft punk. Please refrain from mentioning either of these two artists in a negative light, lest I have to track down your IP and kick your nose in.
(unless you are talking about michaels pedophelia, because that is true, not just some shity geeks opinion. Its also funny to talk about.)

Jackson is really crappy artist name, I think.
..Might as well call it Johnson, or Anderson, or Nelson, or Peterson or something like that.

'really, whole french culture is kinda "soft", so as music.'
You clearly haven't heard of dDamage or the French label Peace Off.
