DESCRIPTION:
Ltd Edition 2x12" White Vinyl Repress of Debut Techno / Minimal LP From 2005.
OK Cowboy is the debut album of Vitalic, first released in 2005. After a year, the album was re-released . Sealed LP Techno & Minimal Techno Repressed
Vitalic has a certain playful mystique that goes beyond Pascal Arbez's invented back story of being a Ukrainian trubcka player and occasional gigolo from a family of sea otter fur traders. In fact, his inability to take anything too seriously, least of all the music he makes, may be the key to Vitalic's appeal. In an interview around the time that his full-length debut, OK Cowboy, was released, Arbez stated that he didn't listen to techno albums "because they are boring," something that can't be said of this witty, stylistically omnivorous album. Acid house, techno, electro, rock, Gypsy melodies, and marches are mixed together into a sound that is both distinctly French (Eastern European pretensions aside, the comparisons to Daft Punk and Air are undeniable) and distinctly Vitalic. OK Cowboy collects Arbez's key singles and EP tracks, including everything fr

Last FM Information on Vitalic

Vitalic (born as Pascal Arbez in 1976) is an electronic music artist. He was born in France and is of Italian descent. His first singles were released in 1996 and 1997, but were confined to the underground electronic music scene. He decided to make music when he heard Daft Punk's Rollin' & Scratchin' in a club in his hometown Dijon, France. He became good friends with Michel Amato, also known as The Hacker, whom he met in the Rex, the "techno temple" of Laurent Garnier. The Hacker suggested he send his new tracks to DJ Hell, head of Gigolo records in Munich. Pascal did so, and International DeeJay Gigolo Records, released the well known Poney EP in 2001, which was a huge success shortly after its release. With the track "La Rock 01", Vitalic created a club anthem which was a hit in the summer of 2001. The track was also included on many compilation albums, even rock compilations.
In 2005, Vitalic's debut album, OK Cowboy was released on Different / PIAS Recordings. Pascal states that all of the instruments used in the album are synthesized. His official website states that "the only thing he can't fake is the emotion that galvanizes his music."
His song "Trahison" from OK Cowboy was used in the trailer for the 2007 French film Naissance des Pieuvres. His song "Poney Part 1" was featured in the Pleix film Birds. It was announced by Festival Republic that Vitalic would be playing both the Reading and Leeds Festivals in the UK in August 2009.
Vitalic's second studio album Flashmob was released in 2009. The first single, "Your Disco Song" is available for streaming at Vitalic's MySpace page. He has spoken a great deal about the new disco influence on Flashmob. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
