Com Truise’s new EP

This week deep Electro Disco dude Com Truise released his new EP, ‘Fairlight’ on Ghostly International.

‘Polyhurt’ is taken from that EP, it’s a spaced-out, blissed-out jam loaded with analog synth Disco goodness and a smooth night time groove. This guy’s really leading the pack in the field of synthesizer funk. With some epic playing that would make Jarre proud, a rolling bass, and some seriously cosmic lead lines this track is retro futuristic gold!

♫ Com Truise – Polyhurt

The ‘Fairlight’ EP is out now with Com’s début LP, ‘Galactic Melt’ following on 5th July.

The album will be titled ‘Within And Without’ and if ‘Eyes Be Closed’ it will be a dreamlike, reverb fuelled, soundscape.

You gotta’ be in the mood for it, but if you are it’s almost perfect.

Ride The Universe’s reMix of Chromeo’s ‘Hot Mess’

Y’all can stop making reMixes of Chromeo’s ‘Hot Mess’ now! Ride The Universe are in the house!

This is what Chromeo mixes should sound like. Like someone drove a dump truck full of synth Funk up to your house and deposited it’s cargo on your doorstep. Just listen to that talkbox riff, pure, addictive, genius! This track’s got everything you want to get the party started. Driving arpeggios to keep the energy up, the aforementioned talkbox riff, sweet 80’s chords and a wailing guitar to keep you inspired (take the Chromeo vocal track off the mix and it would make a very cool training montage track!). It feels like digitalfoxglove and the Fiero boys have really found their sound now and are really to step up to the plate and pate their place amongst the big hitters of Disco (was that two Baseball metaphors in one sentence? I’m English, I don’t even know what Baseball is!), melding 80’s soundtrack epicness with solid Disco grooves RTU are gonna’ be a force to be reckoned with. Like a sexy 80’s cop show theme with aspirations of tearing up the dancefloor this track this tune has something for everyone.

Now that track is going to rock your summer!

Aeroplane reMixed by Rex The Dog

So many good songs are just kicking my ass today! Rex The Dog’s blistering reMix of ‘My Enemy’ by Aeroplane is just one of them.

Featured on Aeroplane’s April Mixtape Rex’s version is a hypnotic storm of retro synth work that boarders on New Beat in some places and lifts you up into Cosmic Disco territory in others. Taken from Aeroplanes album, ‘We Can’t Fly’, ‘My Enemy’ is due to be Vito’s next single and if Rex’s epic synthesiser journey is anything to go by the reMix package should be awesome.

Shelby Grey’s ‘Echoes, Dimensions & Waves’

Shelby Grey (A.K.A. Victor Palomo) releases new single ‘Echoes, Dimensions & Waves’ tomorrow.

Featuring the vocal talent’s of Ricco Vitali, the voice of Futurecop!’s ‘Venice Beach’ and the man behind Cavaliers Of Fun, ‘‘Echoes, Dimensions & Waves’ is a hypnotic ElectroPop track with an almost Balearic Nu-Disco groove. This is a real laid back tune, best suited for those sunset moments when the world is full of opportunity and promise, where it provide the prefect soundtrack. With that digital slap bass and smooth vocals this is the track I’d want to hear after a long night.

♫ Shelby Grey (Feat. Ricco Vitali) – Echoes, Dimensions & Waves

Not always sunrise? Don’t worry, this amazing reMix package holds a track for every mood. Beaumont is first up, with another downtempo electro track. The man could quite easily carve a solid niche for himself with track like this. Completely enveloping synth atmospherics with a solid beat. Clancy’s tracks just keep getting stronger and stronger and his mix here is a full on Dreamwave floorfiller to get lost in. Speaking of Dreamwave, One of the pioneers of the sound, Valerie’s Stephen Falken drops a reMix of soundtracky, sweeping retro Electro that get’s it’s synth groove on in a massive build whilst Worship’s contribution is an awesome analog synth Disco odyssey that appeals to the synth geek in me in ways I cannot express!

MiGHty mOUse’s new single

This is the first single from the new improved MiGHty mOUse, as a band.

‘Between The Pavement And The Stars’ is a smooth upbeat DiscoPop (heavy on the Disco) track with a bit of an original Heaven 17 feel to it. With Natalie Lewis huge voice and the electronic funk (and mention of the word ‘pavement’) I can’t help but think of H17’s ‘Penthouse And Pavement’, not that MM’s new single sounds anything like it, it’s got a sweet sound of it’s own. I’m defiantly liking everything I’ve heard from the new ‘proper band’ MiGHty mOUse’s so far, defiantly looking forward to their new EP in June.

♫ MiGHty mOUse – Between The Pavement And The Stars

There are reMixes of the track from the likes of Mario Basanov, Edwin Van Cleef, Blamma! Blamma!, Cosmonauts, Tronik Youth, Matt Van Schie and more to come.
