"In the Folies Bergeres when the women were dancing 'frou frou' was meant to be the sound of the swishing skirt..."

After month's of waiting Frou Frou's debut single is finally released on Monday 24 June. The single which is taken from the debut album 'Details' features The Watkins remix which has been tearing up the Club charts and counts Pete Tong amongst it's biggest fans. It also features the brilliant Aphrodite remix and a new track 'Close Up' as a b-side. There are video and audio streams below but first we thought we'd try and get their location:

Crud: Where are you now? What can you see?
Froufrou: In an Aeroplane - swirling clouds below, blue sky and sun above.

Crud: What was the first thing you ate today?
Froufrou: Papaya.

Crud: How much does your single "Breathe In" sum you up?
Froufrou: It's a good start - stay tuned.

Crud: What do you hate about each other?
Froufrou: We only love - no "haters" in Froufrou.

Crud: What was the last album you bought?
Froufrou: Twerk "Now I'm Rendered Useless".

Crud: What was the last movie you saw?
Froufrou: "Mulholland Drive" - a masterpiece.

Crud: What inspired you to become what you are today?
Froufrou: An inkling of what we could be.

Crud: Where or how do you feel most comfortable?
Froufrou: As outsiders - strangers in a strange land.

Crud: the 70s, 80s, 90s or now?
Froufrou: Now - if not sooner.

Crud: Pop Idol - good or bad?
Froufrou: Vile, life-denying, evil. Okay so we said no haters. But you had to go and mention Pop Idol, didn't you?

Crud: What are you most looking forward to right now?
Froufrou: The long-awaited release of our album.
