There’s a new video for Washed Out’s ‘Amor Fati’.
Yoonha Park directs this is reasonably standard Chillwave stuff, soft focus, introspective, quaint and a bit dreamlike. It’s all good though and works really well with the track.
‘amor Fati’ come from Washed Out’s album, ‘Within And Without’, out now.

‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ is Monarchy’s new single. Rerecorded from the album version as a duet with Britt Love from Mini Viva.
It’s an odd choice of single, but once you get into it you see how inspired it is as a decision. Mid-tempo and quirky the track will show casual Monarchy listeners that there is more to them than the big, catchy, ElectroPop epics. ‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ is all rolling breakbeats and powerful, ominous, synths that provide a moody soundscape for Britt and Ra to trade vocal accusations.
♫ Monarchy (Feat. Britt Love) – You Don’t Want To Dance With Me
‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ originally comes from the ‘Around The Sun’ album, out now, the single comes out in October.

Tobtok may only be 18 but he’s been throwing out some seriously good tracks.
His latest release, the ‘I’ll Never Forget You’ single, is made up of two slightly older tracks released for free on SoundCloud and is pure joy to listen to. Sitting between synthetic Disco and French Touch the lead track is a big builder with a chord progression that is total euphoria. Everything cuts through the mix on this track, from the retro synth stabs to the driving arpeggio. Quality stuff. the flip side, ‘Pressure’ brings a more Nu-Disco vibe to the table. Slick and sexy, the track is peak time beach music.

So, buy now you know how awesome the Drive soundtrack is, featuring the likes of Kavinsky and College alongside Cliff Martinez’ electronic score.
It also features ‘Tack Of the Clock’ from Chromatics’ excellent album ‘Night Drive’. Edited down to fit the scene by Chromatics and Johnny Jewel the track wasn’t released independent of the album. So Johnny has uploaded it to SoundCloud saying this “A lot of people have been asking about the different version they are hearing in the film. The original “Night Drive” version is around 15 minutes long. Nat Walker (Chromatics / Desire) & i reconstructed it from the original tapes in order to make it heavier in the theatres & cut it to the picture. What we didn’t know was…the soundtrack people weren’t going to let people get it individually. They are trying to rope you into buying the whole album… But all the kids really want is Desire, Kavinsky, & College… So here it is for free. Pass it on. xo johnny jewel”.
Check out the atmospheric, tense, electronic throb of ‘Tick Of The Clock’:

Cyndi Seui latest release come straight from the forthcoming Kitsch Cat Vol.2 compilation and features Gramaphone Children to boot.
A Cover of Badly Drawn Boy’s ‘Silent Sigh’ the track sees Seui becoming even more of a force to be reckoned with as he effortlessly rides the thin line between Nu-Disco/Dreamwave and ElectroPop. Lush synthesizer Pop, multi layers and meticulously produced, that’s always kept funky with a slick Disco bassline is Seui’s trademark, and he deftly applies that to this cover version turning a reasonably dreary song into a beautiful synth powerhouse.
♫ Cyndi Seui (Feat. Gramaphone Children) – Silent Sigh (Bradley Drawn Boy Cover)
Kitsch Cat Vol.2 is out in November and features Cyndi Seui, Yuri’s Nominee, Gramaphone Children, Stargazer, Instant Science, Pelific, and Astrolabe.

Germany’s Final DJs have dropped a new tune intent on putting some funk in your soul.
Not nearly a full of soaring synths as their previous work, ‘Funk In Your Soul’ is a slow building Disco tune that owes as much to LA Nu-Funk a la DâM-FunK as it does to Dreamwave or Nu-Disco. The loose groove is quite a stark contrast to their regimented quantized tracks, and that of their contemporaries, but works really well for a late night summer jam.

Darius’ new tune for Shiny Disco Club is brings the tempo down and the sidechaining up.
In Daruis’ hand his samples become mid-tempo pulsating, hypnotic Disco brain worms. They’ll burrow into the pleasure centres of your brain and live there, funking to the thick synths and cut-up madness of ‘Falling In Love’.

Out next month on Different the highlights of the reMix package come from Mustang and Clubfeet. Both artists take the left-field ElectroPop of the Fighters and make it their own. Mustang give us something a little different from their norm with a big deep, pretty dark, analog groove fest that pulsates through your brain. Clubfeet provide the popiest of the reMixes with a summery Indie-Electro feel build upon layers of smooth synths and turns the vocal track into a lazy poolside sing-a-long.
