The French DJ, composer, producer, and musician Cerrone unveiled his new album Disco Symphony on Friday, February 21. The godfather of disco à la française, he laid the foundation for the French Touch movement in the 1990s. Having spun turntables at clubs and festivals for over 50 years, he remains an inspiration for generations of musicians. His hits were part of the soundtrack for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games last summer. He sat down with France 2 at the Philharmonie de Paris to tell us more.
