Say what you want about the movies by french film maker Luc Besson. But one thing is sure – he´s great when it comes to combine great music with visually great action. We all remember when he had the french Hip Hop master producer IAM to produce and choose the music for the first of the Taxi movies. Any flaws regarding casting, script, performances etc. (do not forget the fact that now Acadamy Award Winner, Marion Cotillard, has a smoking hot part, though.) is simply compensated by a great soundtrack. The same thing could be said about Luc Bessons other trilogy, Transporter. In this third one he made the great decision to use some fresh Electro instead of just Hip Hop – and simply by that action Luc Besson steps up in rank, at least in my book.
So, on this soundtrack there´s two really great tracks. First the track from french Electro outfit, Birdy Nam Nam. From their EP “Worried” comes the track “Trans Boulogne Express“. This is some fresh Electro in that typical intense french way. Distorted sounds, drum machines and a very electro-ish Rock N Roll feeling.

Next track from this soundtrack is the track “Texas” by Benjamin Theves and remixed by Sebastian. This is some quite dirty Electro, not very unsimilar to the sound of Justice and other typical and influential french acts.
