We posted about Cavaliers Of Fun a while back, including the track ‘Secret Galaxies’. We were pretty impressed with the mashing up of Space-Synth, Dreamwave and Chiptune and some good solid songs.
‘Secret Galaxies’ has been given a banging work over by Canada’s ¡borracho! which kinda’ holds on to the ElectroPop feel but introduces some hardcore dancefloor elements.

‘Nibiru’ is the title track of the forthcoming second EP by French dreamy ElectroPoppers Château Marmont.
The track sounds like a mash-up between current Dreamwave sounds and 80’s B-Boy Electro, spacey retro synths and arpeggios share the space with 808 claps and robo vocodering creating a fantastic hybrid!

‘Nibiru’ is out soon on Institubes.
Silver Columns, slightly less of a mystery than last time we featured them, also slightly less French! LOL Turns out to be Scots Adem and The Pictish Trail (who we had heard rumors it was) making some really interesting ElectroPop.
Their forthcoming single, ‘Cavalier’ has, here, been given a version by The Time And Space Machine, also known as Richard Norris from Beyond The Wizard’s Sleeve, who provide a spaced out, prog Electro take on the tune balancing otherworldly synths with a down to earth piano line. Good stuff!

You can buy the previous single, ‘Yes, And Dance’ , now at Boomkat.
Russ Chimes is back again to wreck shop! This time he turns his attention to Australian Electro-Indie outfit Cassette Kids and looks set to stop a hole in music blogland once again!
Just how the man manages to keep up the pace of pushing out huge mix after huge mix is a mystery. The width of the reMix is immense with layer upon layer of vocals and soaring synths tied together with Russ’ trademark Disco beats and basslines. Big House reMix is a pretty apt description!"

Cassette Kids forthcoming album ‘Nothing On TV’ has been produced by Van She’s Michael DiFrancesco! the ‘Spin’ single is out 8th March and also features reMixes from Bang Gang, Cassian, Cassette Club and The Vanish!!!
Just released by Destined Records is the new 12” by producer Matt Schwartz A.K.A. Dada. The track, ‘Majestic 12′ (Feat. The Other) gets this superb French house workout by Londoners Super Mal, a duo known for keeping it straight to the dancefloor.
Rolling basslines an gorgeous synth chords push this track along it’s dreamy course!

You can pick the single up now on Beatport.
You won’t be surprised to hear that new Electro act Euphorie hail from France!
With most of the attention of Electro lovers out there being put upon Dreamwave recently it’s nice to hear some straight up bangers still being produced, and ‘My Lipids’ certainly is that! It’s a 100% Electro party track that would slay on any dancefloor! ‘Bots Attack’, on the other hand, is a relentless, Industrial, robotic Electro noise attack. Slow and methodical, it’s chainsaw synths will burn your brain!

Simon from THISISNOTANEXIT records dropped this track over on his Twitter feed, it’s an amazing reMix of ‘Wave Haze’ by Night Plane from his ‘Chinese Shadows’ 12”.
Hypnotic and atmospheric, it’s a smooth, almost BladeRunner-esq, soundtrack to the city at night. A crazy, chilled, mash up of Dreamwave, SynthPop and Electro Jazz that’s just made for staring out the car window at the street lights rushing past.

The ‘Chinese Shadows’ 12” is available from the THISISNOTANEXIT store.
Critically acclaimed Techno act L-Vis 1990 have reMixed, Indie-Electro band of the moment, Delphic’s forthcoming single ‘Halcyon’.
It’s given the a signature L-Vis 1990 grimy Techno/House sound with it’s huge cut up beats and heavy, heavy bass. This track just doesn’t quit!

‘Halcyon’ will drop 15th March, Delphic’s album ‘Acolyte’ is out now:
Fabian’s ‘Heatwave’ was originally featured on Binary’s excellent Dreamwave/SynthPop compilation ‘Binary Presents: LA Lights’, one of the standout tracks of the album, it was pure 80’s movie party scene montage soundtrack and created quite a bit of blog hype last year.
Now, not only are Binary dropping a superb reMix package but the track has been given the TNUC video treatment. TUNC is a video creator/editor, sometime reMixer, blogger from the 80’s(?) and all round purveyor of good taste, you can check the visuals he came up with for the track here.
The almighty, blog destroying, Russ Chimes contributes to the reMix line up and really excels himself with the bassline and soaring synth work he lays down. Also along for this night drive are Werewolf By Night, one of my personal favourite Dreamwave artists with an uplifting, ringing, feelgood take and Short Circuit who bring things straight back to the dancefloor with their cut up electro.
