“Blonde” is such a stunner, used to great effect in “The Pillow Book”. I’ve used it in a chill set…. Someone made a comment on YouTube that it’s a bit derivative of Hector Zazou but I’ve never been able to find the track it supposedly rips off.

A relic from my youth. They had such a wonderful grasp of melody, which makes sense when you consider their roots in the folk tradition.

I’ve always been a big fan of this from Leon…Eric Serra again

Does this count?

Ahhh, this. I picked up the 7" a while back, expecting this track. But it’s not on it. Pretty certain the YT video has been mistitled and this track is actually the B side of the 12".
