Darkdancer is the second studio album released by Les Rythmes Digitales. It was first released in 1999 but received little critical acclaim, albeit more than the band's first release, Libération. After British electronic musician Stuart Price, the sole member of Les Rythmes Digitales, began to gain notoriety for his collaboration with artists such as Madonna, Darkdancer was rereleased on November 24, 2005 in the UK as a dual CD/DVD set that included some unreleased songs, song remixes, and the videos for "[Hey You] What's That Sound?" and "Sometimes".
