'Moon Safari' is their best release by far and exploded onto the scene. My god was it really ten years ago? Although their music sails close to 'Muzak', 'Moon Safari' has held up extremely well. Their first release 'Premiers Symptômes' was a compilation of early E.P's if i'm not mistaken.
France has produced some great music over the past fifteen years and is eclectic to boot. My latest fave French band is 'Dub Incorporation'.
Others:
Gojira (one of the best metal bands of the last 10 years IMO)
Le Peuple De l'herbe ( I started a thread and posted a comp that went nowhere)
Cassius ( a great Deep House band)
Daft Punk (of course)
Dimitri From Paris (A producer/DJ specialising in world music)
Hotel Costes (series of compilations that take in everything from Jazz to funky beats).
