♫ Jimmy Edgar – Turn You Inside Out (Minitel Rose reMix)

Minitel Rose reMix Jimmy Edgar

Ahead of the proper release of their album ‘Atlantique’ French Electro trio Minitel Rose, one of the best ElectroPop acts around and longtime member of the Valerie crew, have dropped this reMix of Warp Records artist Jimmy Edgar.

Edgar’s strange take on Jazzy Electronica and ElectroPop is an interesting subject for Minitel Rose’s reMix skills who grab the track by the horns and turn it into a rolling Dreamwave epic.

Minitel Rose’s ‘Atlantique’ is out 22nd November on K7! Records.

♫ Clock Opera – Once And For All (Little Loud reMix)

Clock Opera Vs. Little Loud

We’re fans of both Clock Opera and Little Loud here at electronic rumors, so when this little gem dropped in the Inbox excitement followed.

It’s quite a killer tune too. ‘Once And For All’ will be Clock Opera’s next single for Kitsuné Music and Little Loud’s take on the track is a pulsing and shimmering synth workout. Laidback and feel good the sparking lead lines have a pretty euphoric effect.

‘Once And For All’ is released 1st November on Kitsuné Music.

♫ The Smashing Pumpkins – 1979 (StardonE reMix)

StardonE reMixes The Smashing Pumpkins

After the whole StardonE are ace business of earlier this week I was disappointed to find that their reMix of The Smashing Pumpkins’ ‘1979’ had reached it’s download limit on SoundCloud, so I got straight onto StardonE to remedy the situation and to be able to share it with you guys.

The track itself reminds me so much of being younger so the fact that someone has done a nice Dreamwavey reMix of it pleases me no end. Taking the hypnotic nature of the original and adding some killer drums, arpeggios, and a sweet little riff is, frankly, pure genius.

Listen, and enjoy:

And don’t forget to give StardonE you MySpace lovin’!

♫ Saharan Gazelle Boy – Halfhair Girl

Saharan Gazelle Boy

I must admit, I’d never heard of Saharan Gazelle Boy before, apparently it’s a collaboration between Capybara’s Darin Seal and Sea Change. I’ve never heard of them either. Oh well.

I’m digging the music though, it’s nice and grungy and has an electronic post-punk vibe to it. An early 80’s Indie theme runs throughout but with enough electronics to keep it just the right side of SynthPop.

Check the video for their new single ‘Strange Teen Heart’.

And their previous record, ‘Halfhair Girl’, which is a little early New Order.

‘Strange Teen Heart’ is released next Tuesday.

♫ T.B.S. – Rock Your Body (T.B.S. AutoreMix)

T.B.S. – The Bloody Sisters

T.B.S. (A.K.A. The Bloody Sisters) are a Parisian duo who are bringing the fuck back to us after all this dark synth stuff! 😉

‘Rock Your Body (T.B.S. AutoreMix)’ features American singer Enois Scroggins and Frenchman Rpiz on the talkbox and is some severely groove laden French Touch to chill you out with a rolling bass you can’t resist! The Frenchmen have also reMixed Walter Sobcek’s awesome ‘Je Me Souviens’ layering the dreamy SynthPop with their own Disco style.

The prefect comedown to a stressful day!

♫ Detachments – Holiday Romance (T&A End Of The Pier reMix)

Detachments reMixed by T&A

We enthused about Detachments latest single ‘Holiday Romance’ and we’ve loves some of the reMixes that have come around so far.

Particularly likening this minimal mix by T&A which gives the track more of an electronic post-punk feel with bonus acid squelching and cowbell! Then, halfway though the track the bridge kicks in and the track turns into a really absorbing and listenable analog synth wig-out.

‘Holiday Romance is out now on THISISNOTANEXIT!

Daft Punk in Tron Legacy; official music and photo

So, after many false starts and fakes (although the last batch of leaked tracks I was sent seem to have turned out to be real) we finally have an officially released piece from Daft Punk’s Tron Legacy soundtrack and also a first look at how Guy and Thomas will look in their roles as ‘mp3 files’ (read DJs) in the movie.

SO exited for this, both soundtrack and movie. Tron: Legacy hit cinemas 17th December.
