Futurecop! reMix Cobra Starship

cobra starship

Cobra Starship recently released their ‘Night Shades’ album, and if you picked it up on iTunes you would have been treated to this reMix of their single ‘You Make Me Feel’ by none other than Futurecop!.

Futurecop! put all their bounce into this reMix. This is strictly for the big room. Hands-in-the-air, almost Trance, ElectroPop massiveness with a big breakdown that kicks back in with a killer riff.

Fear Of Tigers’ ‘Pippi Longstrump’ reMix competition heats up.

tigers

Seconds out…round, er, what is it?, three?

Anyway, here’s out round up of some of the freshest entries in Fear Of Tigers’ ‘The Adventures Of Pippi Longstrump’ reMix competition. They’re coming in this and fast. Greek producer Kristine completely nails the 80’s teen movie vibe with her reMix. Heavy on electro toms and a wicked 80’s Pop guitar lick, Kristine has done something a little different here and stands out because of it. John Sawtooth goes for a real old school SynthPop sound with some amazing lead lines running throughout that really add a whole new level to the track. Lastly Melbourne’s Fighting Bison comes out swinging with a sweet ElectroPop mix with a little Disco flavour the leads into a earbending, soaring cosmic solo.

Keenhouse’s new EP

This September Disco/Funk/ElectroPop wizard Keenhouse released a brand new EP for Sunlinxx Records.

Keenhouse’s trademark had always been raw talent when his fingers meet the keys. A musician before a producer his ear for melody and riffs shines through in the four track ‘The Summer Society’ EP.  The four tracks give us a nice variety too. From the jazzed-up Nu-Disco of the title track and laid back beach Funk of  ‘Piu Electric’ to the Acid Tropical Cosmic Disco (yes!) of ‘Lost Constellation’ and the chilled ‘Homestill’ that eases you out of the EP with sweet tunes. Keenhouse releases are always welcome, sometimes it’s just nice to have someone playing keyboards at you.
