Goldroom reMixes Alpine

Alpine

Binary head honcho Josh Legg, A.K.A. Goldroom has been excitedly touting his latest reMix. Apparently reMixing one of his favourite new bands, Alpine,’s ‘Hands’ was tons of fun.

The original version of ‘Hands’ is a chilled out slice of IndiePop which, in Goldroom’s hands becomes a smooth piece of marina Disco. The rolling rhythm and House piano riff really make this track giving the track a kinetic feel that works as part of it’s laid back beach Disco vibe rather than against it. So you get a smooth Tropical jam that constant feels like it’s moving forward. Presented in this way the vocals from the original seem to take on an otherworldly characteristic, almost like icy Scandinavian ElectroPop but more woven into the warmth of Goldroom’s track.

♫ Alpine – Hands (Goldroom reMix)

‘Hands’ is  the first single from Alpine’s upcoming début album, due early 2012 on Ivy League Records.

Goldroom reMixed by Follow Me

goldroom

The mysterious Follow Me is back once again, so soon after the sweet ‘A Mission Nocturnal’ they follow up with this late night reMix of Goldroom’s ‘Angeles’.

Apparently the conditions for this smooth Disco reMix was that it was “Made with all analog gear on our spaceship 37,000 years in the Ancient Future Past, hovering over the Post-Apocalyptic Californian Islands.”. Frankly, how they made something so smooth under such harsh conditions is amazing. The guys drops a slick, laid back, bass groove and then just let Josh’s hazy vocals wash over the beat while they layer on blankets of dreamlike synths, undulating in and out of the track. Follow Me are definitely shaping up to be a name to keep a serious eye on.

Sébastien Tellier’s new track

Sébastien Tellier

This is pretty awesome, the second new track from Sébastien Tellier’s eagerly awaited forthcoming album ‘My God Is Blue’.

After the atmospheric majesty of the first single ‘Pépito Bleu’, ‘Cochon Ville’ sees Sébastien getting some French Electro Funk back into his ElectroPop. Produced by produced by Ed Banger’s Mr. Flash the track is some sweet synthesizer Disco you can’t help but move to made all the more smooth by Tellier’s crooning. Vintage Disco at it’s finest. The single will come supported by reMixes from The Magician and Dimitri From Paris amongst others. It should be stellar!

♫ Sébastien Tellier – Cochon Ville

‘My God Is Blue’ is released 16th April via Record Makers.

80s Stallone’s ‘Out Of The Water’

80s Stallone

Here’s some atmospheric and nostalgic synthesizer work from retro synth genius 80s Stallone in the form of his latest track ‘Out Of The Water’.

We’re loving the vintage drum machine sounds in this one, the provide a nice robotic Yazoo-esque SynthPop backing for a track full of mystery. Mr. Stallone lets dreamlike riffs weave in and out of each other and swirl around an Italo bassline making beautiful, rich layers of sound. It’s quite understatedly majestic too, like the soundtrack to the shimmering city lights of a dystopian metropolis.

Mr. Mæn’s new tune

Mr. Mæn

Norway’s Mr. Mæn is back with a brand new tune, one again proving that this guy is a dark horse, underestimated, watch out for Mr. Mæn, he’s suddenly going to be huge.

‘Handiclap’ is a smooth slice of SynthWavey Cosmic Disco that grounds you with a solid Moog Funk groove and a Disco beat, but soon sends you into orbit with some luscious retro synths and jazzy solos. There’s a little Jean-Michel Jarre in there too with it’s thick Sci-Fi atmosphere. Mr. Mæn has been quietly pushing out amazing reMixes and originals for months now, it might be time for him to step into the spotlight soon.
