Martin Dupont is not the name of a person, but rather a French coldwave group who released several crucial albums in the mid to late 80s, the strongest of which is their debut, 1984's "Just Because". The trio, comprised of Alain Seghir, Brigitte Balland and Beverley Jane Crew, have created an impeccable sound that is exemplary of all things coldwave, from the perfectly layered modular synths to the balanced interplay of gloomy-male and romantic-female voices. The arrangements and vocals on this album are nothing short of perfect, contributing to an overall sound that is simultaneously cold and alluring.
