Dance Remixes

Background, writing and release

This album was made to make the fans wait until the following album, postponed because of the Giorgino 's shooting.

However, rather than a simple compilation, the album contains two CDs in its French version, including the remixes of fifteen songs on the singer. These remixes, all made by Laurent Boutonnat and Thierry Rogen (for the latter, it was his last collaboration), have mostly been published previously as vinyl's B-sides of Mylène Farmer's singles, except "We'll Never Die" (Techno Remix) and "Libertine" (Carnal Sins Remix), made for the occasion, as the "Extended Dance Remix" of the new song "Que mon cœur lâche". This song, whose video was directed by Luc Besson, was the only single released to promote the album, and the last vinyl of the singer.

"We'll Never Die" is the only song available on this album that was never released as a single.

An international version of the album was also released. It contains only ten remixes, including the remix of "My Soul Is Slashed", the English version of "Que mon cœur lâche". Apart from the number of titles, the two covers also are distinguished by the color of the cover (black for the French version, white for the International).

The booklet's pictures, made by Marianne Rosenstiehl, show Mylène Farmer training in a gym.

There were two singles from this album: "Que mon cœur lâche", and its English-language version "My Soul Is Slashed" (only available on the European CD album).

The album peaked at #3 on the French Compilations Chart on December 9, 1992. It was re-issued in 2005 in a digipack version and was therefore charted on the Albums Charts, reaching #108 on April 9, 2005 and stayed in the top 200 for four weeks.
