Review: Remarkably, Medhi Benjelloun had barely turned 17 when he released his first EP as Petit Biscuit. A year on, and with his 18th birthday fast approaching, the French Moroccoan starlet is ready to deliver his debut album. By anyone's standards, it's a hugely entertaining and well-produced affair, with Benjelloun effortlessly joining the dots between slick synth-soul, jazzy Balearica, toasty electronica, tactile pop, Dam Funk, the chopped and screwed future R&B of Hudson Mohawke and the kind of glistening, sun-kissed deep house that Southern French producers have become renowned for in recent years. That it's so assured and immaculately produced is testament to the French youngster's incredibly advanced studio skills, while the music itself is imaginative and attractive enough to appeal to both serious heads and more casual listeners.
