...Girl designed the album to be loud, kaleidoscopic, and dizzying. Tracks such as “Future Lovers,” with its haunting repetition of “In the evidence of it, brilliance” and supersonic synthesizer beats, could cause an epiphonic seizure. He helps Madge narrow her creative focus to dance the night away. The disc is an amalgamation of the past 30 years in dance music.

Waly, a 32-year-old building cleaner, only got to know his father when he sneaked into France at 18 on a boat from Morocco; he now works legally in France. A large photograph hangs above Waly's narrow bed, of his 2-year-old daughter, whom he has never met. The migrant tradition has continued into the next generation, fueled by the same force that kept his father rooted in France for decades - the need to send money home. Similar stories swell the immigrant population in Paris...
