00:03Today we're in Paris and it's the premiere of a movie produced by Byrne.
00:10It's called Nothing But The Beat, which is also the name of my album.
00:14We're going to premiere the movie in the biggest cinema in Europe.
00:19Here is the cinema and under the cinema there's a club called The Rex,
00:24which is the place where I started to make my parties years and years ago
00:30and this place is now the number one techno club in Paris.
00:35So it's kind of crazy because it happened by accident.
00:38So it means a lot to me and yes, I'm going to see myself on a cinema screen. It's crazy.
00:53This is the premiere of the Nothing But The Beat film,
00:57which is a film that tells a story of how electronic and house music have entered popular culture.
01:04And one man has been a main artisan in that journey, which is David Guetta.
01:10And he is, for that reason and many others, the ambassador of the Byrne brand.
01:18I'm very glad that they could capture some of the emotions that I can feel like before going on stage,
01:28for example.
01:29I think this is probably even more important than to see me on stage because people saw me on stage
01:35before.
01:39It's very difficult to break the U.S. if you're not from the U.S.
01:47But if you're not even from the U.K., it's almost impossible.
01:50What was so crazy two years ago when I came with that concept, you know, to mix the best of
01:58both worlds, like urban and electro, it became the new standard of pop music.
02:06I don't know what makes a successful hit. I have no idea. I don't have a recipe. I wish I
02:11had a recipe. I can just feel it.
02:15The film really tells that untold story of how electronic music and dance music broke into popular culture.
02:23It's going to be exciting to see in the next month, you know, this movie premiering in 22 countries.
02:30And it's going to be in cinemas, on TV, and then we're going to have a launch on Facebook for,
02:38you know, people following the Facebook from Byrne or from David Guilla.
02:43And they're going to be able to see the movie before anybody else.
02:47If you go to facebook.com slash Byrne, you get an invitation and then you join the worldwide premiere.
02:53But the fear.
