The Micronauts

The Micronauts are a Paris-based electronic dance music act founded in 1995. The group are part of the French dance music genre from the 1990s to 2000s dubbed, French Touch. The original Micronauts duo consisted of Christophe Monier and the Canadian-born, George Issakidis. Monier and Issakidis met whilst working at the Parisian music fanzine eDEN. The Micronauts' debut track “Get Funky Get Down" was originally released in 1995 on the London-based Phono label. “Get Funky Get Down" features the original version of the track along with a Daft Punk remix, the first ever made by the duo. A "Nature 1994 Cassette Version" recorded as its name implies in 1994 on a cassette tape was only included on a 2017 release on their own Micronautics label. The second release was a 12 inch called "The Jazz / The Jam" (1995). The duo continued to work throughout the 1990s, developing an acid techno style of their own. Their work attracted the attention of high-profile artists, such as The Chemical Brothers and Underworld. Indeed, their remix of Block Rockin' Beats appears on The Chemical Brothers' DJ mix album Brothers Gonna Work It Out. The Micronauts remix of Underworld's Bruce Lee was also widely distributed. In 1999, The Micronauts were signed to Science, a sub-label of Virgin UK, distributed in the US through Astralwerks. The Jag was released this same year. In 2000, the band released their debut EP, Bleep to Bleep. Group member, George Issakidis, left The Micronauts project shortly after. Monier continues to record, produce, tour, perform live and work under the name of The Micronauts. In 2003, he remixed Mirwais' "Miss You" and Madonna's "Hollywood". In 2004, Monier founded The Micronautics label. On 28 September 2007, he released a new album, Damaging Consent with a bonus ten track remix retrospective. In June 2018, Monier released the single Acid Party on his Micronautics label. The album Head Control Body Control followed in December.
