Digging in the vaults for a trio of François Kevorkian remixes, all available on compilations and EPs via Bandcamp for a steal, in my opinion.
As with Les Disques Du Crépuscule yesterday, Harmless Records have made a ton of their top notch compilations available digitally for seven quid, including the excellent Disco Discharge series* Originally issued as 2CD sets between 2009 and 2012, there are 18 themed collections to choose from.
My pick, fronted by a live performance from 1983, is François Kevorkian's 12" mix of Keep On by D-Train, which appears on the Disco Boogie collection, along with Average White Band, Sharon Redd, Skyy and Nick Straker Band. Great stuff.
* [31st May 2025] It seems that Disco Discharge now has a standalone Bandcamp page, It's currently offering up 16 of the compilations, each split into two parts and either ¢5.00 a pop, a bargain in itself, or as a name your price purchase.
Originally issued in France only as a single in 1993, Tout Est Bleu by Âme Strong got a wider release in 1997 with remixes by Attaboy, 16B (Omid Nourizadeh) and François Kevorkian. You can also find the latter on the Airtight In Session: Volume 1 compilation from 2009.
In 2003, Zapology aka Delroy Clarke lent his vocals to Midnight Bustling by 3 Generations Walking, furnished with an epic remix by François Kevorkian. In 2009, New York-based Lion1 Records released the 12-track Believe EP/remix album, containing reworks of the title track, Her Song and four mixes of Midnight Bustling, including vocal and dub rinses by Monsieur K.
