The Golden Filter have been teasing us with various flash animations and movies, over at their official website, in preparation for the release of their début album, ‘Voluspa’ including this video:
The album drops 26th April, until the keep an eye on http://www.thegoldenfilter.com/.
This broke over at the Daft World fansite, apparently this is a leaked demo of one of the tracks from Daft Punk’s Tron Legacy soundtrack:

Real? We don’t know. It does sound like what you’d expect a Daft Punk Tron soundtrack to sound like. Whatever it is, fake or not, it’s actually pretty good and if it is from the soundtrack then it’s probably even better in the context of whatever scene it accompanies.
What do you think?
–UPDATE–: Thomas Bangalter has confirmed it’s a fake. Hardly surprising really, I doubt we’ll hear any of the soundtrack until it come’s out. Still think it’s a cool little piece of music though!
We gave you the low down on Danger’s next EP right here, the time is nearly upon us when the Electro-House master shows everyone just how it’s done!
He’s dropped another new little teaser video, again with the oh-so-cool 16-bit stylee graphics. I would love him to do a mini-movie in this style, maybe when (if) he releases a full length album he will!
Danger’s 3rd EP, ‘09/17 2007’, will be released on 25th January an vinyl and 1st February digitally.
French duo Curry & Coco make some real raw, analog, ElectroPop. The partnership of Thomas and Sylvain strip down the Electro sound and add a bucket of nervous energy.
They are about to release their EP “Sex Is Fashion’ which features the lead tracks ‘Who’s Next’ and ‘Sex is Fashion’ and they have just dropped the video for ‘Who’s Next’:
The EP also features reMixes of ‘Sex Is Fashion’ from The Emperor Machine and We Are Enfant Terrible. I’m lovin’ the The Emperor Machine reMix with it’s big funk bass and huge synths and, er, bongo solo!

Curry & Coco release the EP this months ahead of their album ‘We Are Beauty’ at Peermusic.
Dug up by the Valerie crew’s blog is this upcoming French producer Jacques L. Dorsey. A Man of mystery with a brand new MySpace the word on the street is that he has some involvement in Daft Punk’s soundtrack for the forthcoming Tron sequel, Tron Legacy.
He’s got that 80’s nightdrive vibe down pat with this mid-tempo synth jam. Steady bass, Simmons toms a lead line to ride through the city streets!

All I need now is a Ferrari, something to brood about and a time machine! Go hit up JLD’s MySpace!

Well, we kinda’ expected a flood of reMixes of Marina And The Diamonds forthcoming single, ‘Hollywood’, and y’know what? that’s no bad thing. Especially when they are of the standard set by Monarchy here!
I’m loving the heavily modulated synth bass, it’s got a really retro, really ‘harsh & warm at the same time’ tone. When the song kicks in proper it takes on a different flavour, all arpeggiated basslines and syncopated leads. Actually, it sounds like a heavily sidechained 80’s TV theme song!
Keep ‘em coming!

‘Hollywood’ is released 1st February 1st followed by Marina’s début album, ‘The Family Jewels’, which drops on 15th February.

Hehe, The KiWi’s, what’s that all about then, eh? don’t even try to wrap your head around what you are hearing here! OK, so we start off with plucked stings and chimes with an almost oriental soundtrack feel, but then, what’s this? Enter some serious synth axe work and marching drums…and is that children playing I hear in the background?
It’s beyond description really, but you know what? I like it! Give it a few listens (‘cos it’s pretty short) and I guarantee it will draw you in, although I can’t guarantee you’ll ever get out!

Their EP ‘14 years Old’ is out on On The Fruit Records on 30th January, until then show these guys some MySpace love:
Chicago’s Love Concept are a weird one, they sound kinda’ like a garage SynthPop band. The songs themselves are very 80’s, in line with the current crop of Dreamwave or Chillwave bands, but there’s something really raw about the recording that sets them apart from the crowd. Like a real synth jam session, it’s a refreshing sound.

Go give Love Concept some props over on their MySpace:
Hey! Ellie Goulding has finally dropped a real video for ‘Starry Eyed’! The song’s been around for a while but it’s finally getting a single release.
So, here’s the clip:
‘Starry Eyed’ will be released on 22ng February, followed by Ellie’s album ‘Lights’ on 1st March
So, what happens when you mix prolific Electro artist and reMixer Drop The Lime with Cutting Crew’s 80’s power balled ‘(I Just) Dies In Your Arms)?
This does:
♫ Cutting Crew – (I Just) Died In Your Arms (Drop The Lime reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire)
All cut up vocals and warp bass, it’s got a real Breakdance feel but has an appropriately huge breakdown!
It’s getting late, I don’t think I can cope! 😉
