And N'to, Worakls, Danger, Justice, French79, Kavinsky, Jean-Michel Jarre, Air, Birdy Nam Nam, Gesaffelstein, Perturbator, SebastiAn, ... French electro is doing well.

A lot of the Ed Banger crew don't appear to be releasing music anymore as far as I'm aware.

Not quite sure why you answer that to my message since the only Ed Banger in my list are Justice (last release in 2019) and sebastiAn (2019 too). The others I listed aren't part of that group.

Not quite sure why you couldn't have just said, great news, Justice and SebastiAn have recent releases. I'm obviously a little behind :)

wow great collection of names to checkout!

This live set is just a delight all the way through: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikRvoa9p-SQ

I'm envious of both his gear and the talent to use it so well.

Ooh. Thanks for this! RAM is my favourite, and this really appeals to me. May I recommend back; Betamaxx has a wonderful 80s nostalgic sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MB5mRTkJmFA

Is Air still around? Still probably have my copy of Moon Safari somewhere.

Random Access Memories sounds more like Air than Daft Punk imo. People should definitely give their discography a listen if you liked that sound.

Nothing released for a while. Nicolas Godin is releasing some solo stuff

Add Etienne de Crecy, Phoenix, Cassius (though Zdar died not long ago), Justice, Mr oiso and Sebastian to that list

Justice

if you like Carpenter Brut, I recommend Perturbator, especially the album The Uncanny Valley.

New Model is severely underrated. His best, in my opinion.

Don't worry the relève is here : https://youtu.be/CpdKWPrGxpk

Justice were seen as the heirs to follow in Daft Punk's footsteps after their debut. They kinda lost it after that though, IMO.

I strongly suspect that they just chose a different creative direction, somewhat more ballad-y. But their latest live-esq album "Woman Worldwide" (styled "WWW") from 2018 shows that they still can make incredible dance/disco electronic music of the same caliber and energy as 2007's 'Cross', but they chose to pursue gentler sounds in their studio albums.

It makes me suspect that their live shows are much more true to their 2007 energy than their studio albums might lead you to believe.

I went to a festival in recent years with Justice closing saturday night and can absolutely attest to this.

Justice live is a blast, they album really lives with their lighting and the way they are mixing.
