Complètement fou ("Completely crazy" in French) is the third studio album by French electropop group Yelle. It was released on 29 September 2014 in France, and worldwide on 2 October 2014 through Kemosabe Records. For this album, the group collaborated with American producers, with Dr. Luke, who is also the founder of Kemosabe Records, as the main producer. The album features a blend of their signature electropop sound and a pop sheen due to Dr. Luke's involvement in the recording process.
Complètement fou received generally positive reviews from critics upon its release. While some reviewers praised the songs' catchy melodies and the overall sonic diversity of the album, others found its new production style too polished and believed it could potentially alienate fans of their first two studio albums, Pop-Up (2007) and Safari Disco Club (2011).
The album would later be supplemented by a remix EP in 2015, which contained five remixes of three different songs from the album (namely "Complètement fou", 'Ba$$in" and "Moteur action"). These tracks were remixed by SOPHIE, A.G. Cook, Tepr (Tanguy Destable), Alexaert, 20Syl and Kool Kojak.
