Notes

‘Ô Signe des Temps (Iueke Dub Remix).’ In 1986, the Québécois artist Bernardino Femminielli put together a cover of Prince’s then-current “Sign of the Times.” Contemporary culture being what it is, 1986 isn’t the past in any strict sense—people now listen to old and new music, almost without discretion—and three years ago, the French electronic producer Iueke put together a dub remix, and it’s a Francophone brainwave par excellence.
