I'm doing a project on modern French music for a French class, and I'm looking for a quick, easy reference for recommendations, interviews, etc. Like a Pitchfork or Stylus Francais, maybe?

A (very good) site loaded with interviews, dj-sets and gigs. And since most of it is written in French, it'll be a good exercise... If not, you'll be at least able to get a list of names.
