Database’s ‘New Disco’ EP

database

Totally forgot to post this in my crazy couple of weeks but I couldn’t let it sit here un-exposed.

Database’s ‘New Disco’ EP for Kitsuné is out today, and it’s a storming three tracks of synthesized Disco aural gold.  As a taster of what to expect, check out this growling edit of the title track. Heavy bass, electronic squelches and a Disco voice of doom. What more do you need to get you out of your seat? The track has some quite hardcore old school EBM and Italo leanings, being slightly more aggressive than your average analog Disco with a hint of the harder Yuksek stuff.

Louis La Roché X Shook

louis-la-roche1

And once again Shook rock it. reMixing Louis La Roché’s new tune ‘The Wall’ his laid back DiscoPop slides effortlessly into your brain.

One again Shook employs the Funk style Electric Piano with his beats to produce this smooth, chilled, late 70’s groove that works so well with his Disco basslines. It really is Shook’s playing that is the star of this reMix, I could easily listen to a whole album of his tinkling the ivories.

Louis La Roché – The Wall (Shook reMix)

The ‘Gimme Gimme’/‘The Wall’ single is out 19th September on Ever After Records.

The Golden Filter: Syndromes

We knew The Golden Filter were up to something!

It seems the have been colluding with Scandinavian filmmaker Kristoffer Borgli on a short movie called ‘Syndromes’. All involved would probably devastated to hear me call it a superhero flick, but to me that’s not an insult. It appears to be a move about a girl with an ‘ability’ and the people who exploit that ability. Check the trailer.

the Golden Filet have also soundtracks the short, here’s the Ladytron-esque title track, Mother’.

Gigamesh reMixes Katy B

Gigamesh goes old school Electro with added Miami Bass for this new reMix of Katy B & Ms. Dynamite’s ‘Lights On’

Rocking a Planet Rock beat Gigamesh keeps it low and synthetic, very different to what we are used to from the man but a welcome sound. The addition of just a subtle amount of House piano make it seem all the more fresh. Gigamesh isn’t just a one trick pony it seems.

Katy B (Feat. Ms. Dynamite) – Lights On (Gigamesh reMix)

Katy B’s album, ‘On A Mission’, is out now.
