One of the few producers to pursue a real
fusion of jazz and house music, Frenchman Ludovic
Navarre began recording in the early '90s using various aliases (Subsystem,
Modus Vivendi, Deepside)
for a range of French imprints. St. Germain
debuted in 1994 for Laurent
Garnier's F Communications label and Navarre
released his first album, Boulevard, in
1996. Featuring trumpeter Pascal Ohse,
the album worked as a hybrid of American R&B and jazz with the
growing French house scene exemplified by Garnier, la Funk Mob,
and Dimitri
From Paris. Tourist
took the concept further with Navarre
working post-production on a fuller complement of musicians and earned
release on Blue Note. Navarre has
also remixed such varying artists as Björk, Pierre Henry,
and the
Suburban Knight.
