Clancy reMixes Robyn’s ‘None Of Dem’
We’ve been waiting for this one for a while. As unashamed lovers of Robyn we can’t think of anything better than Clancy, one of the UKs top Nu-Disco producers reMixing ‘None Of Dem’.
Clancy peppers his retro synth groove with a sweet ‘90’s House Piano riff running throughout. There’s also a nice Italo influence in the bassline too, in fact the reMix seems to be a melting pot of everything that’s good and great in dance music, wrapped up with Robyn’s left-field ElectroPop. That’s kinda’ what I like about Clancy, as well as having the production skills, he always seems keen to draw on different styles but never let’s them overrun what he’s doing. It makes for exciting synth music every time and, as displayed here, dancefloor gold.

Clancy’s ‘Panther EP’ is out now and comes highly recommended.

Robyn’s ‘Call Your Girlfriend’ video
The video for Robyn’s latest single ‘Call Your Girlfriend’ is here.
Simple, yet effective, just Robyn dancing like a nutter, as is her wont, in a hanger, one take.
Looks ace though.
‘Call Your Girlfriend’ is out now.

Robyn + A-Track!!!
Swedish queen of all things ElectroPop Robyn’s new single, ‘Indestructible’ (first heard in acoustic form on ‘Body Talk Pt.2’, then in dancefloor form on ‘Body Talk (Pt. 3)’) as reMixed by DJ prodigy, Chromeo brother and Producer/Label Boss extraordinairé A-Trak.
There’s not much more I can say….
Amazing!
♫ Robyn – Indestructible (A-Trak Radio Edit)
Body Talk (the third one) is out at the end of this month with the ‘Indestructible’ single dropping this week!
Starsmith reMixes Robyn’s ‘Hang With Me’
Robyn = Awesome. Starsmith = Awesome.
Robyn + Starsmith = Awesomer!
‘Hang With Me’ is the first single from Robyn’s ‘Body Talk Part 2’, we dropped the video last week. It’s a cute SynthPop ballad that is a good sign for the forthcoming album. That ElectroPop producer extraordinaire Starsmith is providing one of the single’s reMixes is just too good to be true!
And the track lives up to expectations. Pure uplifting electronic Pop goodness that makes expectations run high not just for Robyn’s second ‘Body Talk’ album but Starsmith’s soon-to-be-released EP too!
♫ Robyn – Hang With Me (Starsmith reMix) (Un-Mastered)
‘Hang With Me’ is taken from the ‘Body Talk Pt. 2’ album and is out 5th September.
Robyn’s new video
Oh look, Robyn’s doing something badass again!
Heh, the official video for the forthcoming ‘Hang With Me’ single has premiered, and although it’s pretty much just following Robyn and her crew around on promotional tours it’s really nicely shot and seems to work amazingly well with the song, which is a sweet, uplifting, SynthPop ballad.
‘Hang With Me’ is taken from the ‘Body Talk Pt. 2’ album and is out 5th September.
Robyn’s ‘Dancing On My Own’ video
We’re really digging Robyn’s forthcoming single ‘Dancing On My Own’, with its amazing reMix package, the Swedish ElectroPop bundle of insanity (need new Robyn based ‘madness’ adjectives!) has finally débuted the video clip for the track.
It’s Robyn meet’s mid-80’s clips in a head on collision, complete with big hair and not quite dance moves and I swear at one point she attempts the classic James Bond not-so-convincingly-pretending-to-be-making-out-with-someone-by-wrapping-my-arms-round-my-back-and-wobbling-my-head trick!
‘Dancing On My Own’ is an awesome single, be sure to pick it up when it drops.
Robyn reMixes
Scandinavian ElectroPop whirlwind Robyn’s forthcoming single ‘Dancing On My Own’, for her new album ‘Body Talk Pt. 1’ is shaping up to have an awesome reMix package supporting it.
Things in the Rex The Dog camp have been pretty quiet recently but he’s powering back with this amazing reMix, the trademark Rex The Dog style bassline really kicks the track up a notch, it’s really Poppy for RtD but may have place Roby (like last year) in our top 20 of 2010 already! Chew-Fu don’t do a bad job themselves, turning in a euphoric, hands-in-the-air slice of Electro-House with a really 80’s movie feel.

Head on over to Robyn’s SoundCloud to hear the Fred Falke reMix. ‘Dancing On My Own is out soon.
Now Robyn IS the robot!
The first ‘proper’ track from Robyn’s forthcoming album, ‘Body Talk’, has surfaced.
‘Fembot’ is a genius slice of Electro-Rap-R&B-Dancehall-Acid-Dub Pop. 303 basslines meet pop rap with a Robyn edge. With tracks produced by Diplo and Røyksopp it’s defiantly an album to get exited about.

Robyn will be dropping her Automatic Booty Applications later in the year.
Robyn covers Yelle
‘Ding!’ “Seconds out, Round two!”
Ducking and diving, it’s the mad Swede Robyn with an English take on Yelle’s ‘À Cause Des Garçons’, ‘Because Of Boys’.
Mixing it up ‘Cobrastyle’ Robyn’s tack is actually very cool, however the song itself doesn’t translate as well which is most evident in the chorus. What was once a big focal point to the track becomes almost apologetic in English.
It’s a pity as Robyn brought a brilliant ElectroPop tune to the ring.

I kinda’ prefer Yelle’s track, but in the end the we, the listeners, are the winners!
Yelle covers Robyn
As part of the iTunes Foreign Exchange series France and Sweden are going head-to-head in a clash of the ElectroPop nutcases.
Round One sees Parisian Electro queen Yelle covering Robyn’s ‘Who’s That Girl?’ in her native tongue and she comes out swinging with a brilliant upbeat Club-Pop take on the track that’s bristling with ‘crazy’.

‘Ding’!’ There’s the bell…
