Sure,



Mirwais - I'd recommend his album 'Production'. And in particular the tracks 'Disco Science' and 'Paradise'. Listen to those as tasters to see if you like the album.



St Germain - All his stuff is worth getting. The albums 'Boulevard' and 'Tourist' do take a bit of getting used to. It's jazz house baby! So of course it'll take a while to get it. Like all good jazz, once you do it's like lots of lightbulbs going off in your head and you can't fathom why you never got it in the first place!



Grand Popo Football Club - I'd recommend the album 'Shampoo Victims'. 'C'est pas des mecs bien' is the best track on it. There is also the inferior english version of the same track titled 'Men Are Not Nice Guys'. The album takes the rip out of the Giorgio Moroder sampling electronica lovelies.



Vanessa Paradis - So cheesy it's good. Quality french pop of the highest order. Seek out the quintessential 'M & J' and 'Au Zenith' albums and swoon!

If you love electro type stuff check out M83.



Their sounds are quite diverse but if you like Visage they are sure to have something for you.



The Album Saturdays=Youth comes highly recommended.
