She might not have ever done a sexy-dance through security laser beams, but Pearl Cornioley is one bad mutha. After her death this past February, she was recently declassified and her contribution to the French Resistance against Nazis in World War II was revealed. Not only did she hide secret messages in the hem of her skirt as she was parachuted into France, but she led troops to interrupt the Paris-Bordeaux railway at least 800 times and was considered by her superiors to be the best shot yet, male or female. No wonder Hitler and his cronies issued a 1 million franc bounty over her head! And you thought the getaway scene in Sound of Music was a nail-biter!

2007 has been a big year for French music. Daft Punk, Ed Banger and crew, Uffie, and Justice all revitalized good ol’ house music in the U.S. crowding dance floors in clubs nationwide. And this “movement� shows no signs of stopping with the official stateside debut by French music/fashion/design collective Kitsune. Kitsune had already released 3 compilations of French electro dance music in Europe before releasing Maison 4 and Maison 5 this year in the U.S..
Kitsune 3, 4, and 5 are available now at Turntable Lab. Pick up a copy now and you are guaranteed to keep warm this winter with all the dancing you’ll be doing : )
