The M Machine

This track made the music blogosphere shit itself this weekend or something. I was out getting drunk. So it’s down to The M Machine to blow the cobwebs out of my head today.

You can see why everyone went ape over this track. These guys from San Francisco, previously of Pance Party, have put together six minutes of adrenaline Electro with a growling bassline and chainsaw leads that are designed to uplift you and get you lost in the music. The track comes from their forthcoming début album.

♫ The M Machine – Trafalgar

The M Machine’s album is out soon, until then check out their SoundCloud.

Mustang’s new cosmic tune

Mustang

Mustang bring the electronic Disco for a Friday night.

Their new tune ‘Nebula’ is coming soon on Gomma Dance Tracks. It’s a bouncy slow burner driven along by a gangly guitar hook and some cosmic Moog action. This is real Sci-Fi disco stuff, galactic synthesis, futuristic and otherworldly. Yet somehow brought back down to earth by the guitar riff.

♫ Mustang – Nebula

‘Nebula’ is out 5th August as part of Gomma Dance Tracks’ ‘E.P.4’.

Holy Ghost! and Michael McDonald!

Holy Ghost! forthcoming new single, ‘Some Children’ has got itself a cool minute long commercial courtesy of Ghoster Adam Fuchs, and Adult Swim.

Hopefully it will get expanded into a full video soon and the song well deserves it, a funky urban electronic groove featuring the voice of yacht legend Michael McDonald. The clip seems to be built around the sheep omnipotent power of McDonalds voice.

♫ Holy Ghost! (Feat. Michael McDonald) – Some Children

‘Some Children’ is out soon and taken from Holy Ghost!’s self titled début album, out now.

Bag Raiders reMixed by Eli Escobar

Bag Raiders new single, the third from their amazing self-titled début album, will be ‘Not Over’. Check the video here.

One of the more groovin’ tracks on the album get’s a deep club makeover from Eli Escobar. The House vibe runs throughout this reMix culminating with some big House piano for the finale. Couple that with some B-Boy beats and you have a killer tune.

♫ Bag Raiders – Not Over (Eli Escobar reMix)

Bag Raiders are currently touring the US with Ellie Goulding, which will be quite a show! ‘Not Over’ is out next month.

Justin Faust does it again

Justin-Faust

Justin Faust’s ‘Girl Talk’ EP is the gift that keeps on giving.

To celebrate the release, which is pretty damn awesome by the way, Justin and Discotexas are giving away a free bonus track, ‘Do It Again’. It’s a classic Dreamwave tune laden with soaring leads, big retro chords and a slight touch of the Italo. The track also has the most feelgood, cute, melody i have heard in a Nu-Disco track in a long time. Let this soundtrack your weekend.

Lo-Fi-Fnk reMixes Foster The People

fosterthepoeple

Foster The People’s summer anthem ‘Pumped Up Kicks’ had been giving a quirky ElectroPop treatment by Sweden’s super duo Lo-Fi-Fnk.

Dropping some breaks and some looping piano gives the track a cool 90’s Rave vibe underneath the big clubby ElectroPop. For all the chaotic meeting of styles here the end product is pretty slick and laidback giving Foster The People a Scandinavian summer sheen.

Cosmonaut Grechko reMixed by Monophonic.

cosmonautgrechko11

Cosmonaut Grechko and Joywave’s amazingly nuanced ‘Singin’’, from Grechko’s recent ‘Alaska 2100’ EP, has been given a fresh reMix from Ukrainian producer Monophonic.

The track gets the big room treatment, seriously, this is huge sounding. The big House bass dominates the track which gets layered thick with hands-in-the-air synths and the introspective Indie vocals tuned into a sunrise anthem. It’s packing a couple of sweet builds too.
