The Frost’s ‘That’s Life’ EP

the frost

We first came across Russia’s The Frost reMixing Voyagers ‘Lovers’ track, they have now dropped their own EP, and it;s three tracks of synthy Disco goodness.

‘That’s Life’ is a gorgeous, full Nu-Disco tune that takes a laid back approach to things. With some of the best use of sound I have heard in a while the track plays with sonics to create, almost eerie, atmospheres that haunt, what is, a seriously smooth groove. reMix duties come manned by Serj V, a producer we’re definitely keeping an eye on, who makes thing a tad more synthetic with his future Italo mix which mixes the ghostly Funk of the original with a Disco bass, and Sergey Spell, who opts for a Tropical approach and brings things straight to the beach part. ‘that’s Life’ is a pretty killer début EP. Russia is doing it right now!

Teen Daze’s new single

Teen Daze

Here’s the third single from Canadian Chillwave guru Teen Daze’s forthcoming new album, ‘All Of Us’.

‘The Future’ is a hazy slice of synthesizer and percussion beauty. Haunting, distant vocals, awash with reverb, gently skim over the top of a chilled out Dreamwave score. Teen Daze’s album should be one of the albums of the summer. No necessarily the ‘going for it’ part of the summer, but the more blissful sunset moments. It’s those times that are going to be soundtracked by Teen Daze in 2012.

‘All Of Us’ is out 22nd May.

Human Life’s ‘Don’t Fade Away’ reMix

humanlife

Just a day after the release of their new single on Vulture Music, California ElectroPoppers Human Life have dropped a new remix of the track.

Human Life shrug off the catchy Pop of the original here, in favour of some deep House vibes. The pitched down vocals actually do impart a mysterious, soulful, quality to the performance which suits the moody ‘90’s House sound well. taking the track in a completely different direction to the Shook or Kartell reMixes, the ‘E-Returns’ reMix is pure late night dancefloor stuff, for those early hours when you can totally loose yourself.

Keith Masters’ new album

Keith Masters

If you are at all a fan of retro Electro you’ll have probably, possible unknowingly, got down to Mr. Keith Masters before. He’s the provider of rhymes on Futurecop!’s track, including the amazing ‘Tonite’s Hero’. This week the man drops his new album, ‘Electromajic: The Remixtape’ on Keiz Beats.

The album, and Keith’s music in general, is a strange beast. It’s genre destroying, that’s a phrase I absolutely hate but in this case it’s actually true. There’s a lot of ways you could describe Keith’s style, but when it comes down to it what you’ve got here is SynthWave and Nu-Disco Hip Hop. And it works, it works so well. There’s two really great elements to what’s on offer here; the music is real slick retro ElectroPop, mixed up with the occasional Hip Hop beat amongst the soaring synths and Keith’s rhymes are so involving. Littered with pop cultural references, hipster commentary and geek Easter eggs alongside the expected raps, all delivered with a laid back flow that suits the music in an unexpectedly perfect way. if you’re looking for something a little different, you could do a lot worse than check out Keith Masters’ ‘Electromajic: The Remixtape’.

Goin’ Old School: Jan Hammer, Dorine Hollier & Julia Claire

Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia:

First up is the atmospheric keytar master, Jan Hammer with 1986’s ‘Crockett’s Theme’ from Miami Vice.

Dorine Hollier’s Tonight…Crazy Night’ from198 is as epic a slice of Italo as you’ll ever hear!

From 1987 it’s Julia Claire’s ‘Cat In Disguise’, pure post-Italo EuroPop cheese. Awesome!
