MMMatthias reMixes Yeasayer

New York rockers Yeasayer seem to get quite a few mentions in the electronic music press, not only did singer Chris Keating appear on Simian Mobile Disco’s ‘Audacity of Huge’ but they seem to be reMix fodder supreme!

German reMix factory MMMatthias completely warps their single ‘ONE’ into a cut-up Electro banger that must have taken days hunched over a sampler, twisting guitar riffs into Electro lead lines.

Ocelot & Calvertron

Ocelot03

More reMixes are coming in of Ocelot’s forthcoming single ‘Our Time’.

Calvertron’s take on the track is all bleeps and bass. Stripping out most the vocals and replacing them with a heavy bassline and chaotic synths completely juxtaposed by a beautifully 80’s breakdown!

‘Our Time’ drops soon on Wall Of Sound.

Rimer London

RimerLondon

Rimeroni Vumani A.K.A. Rimer London is one third of Dutch ElectroPoppers Le Le, and while Le Le go for the sleazy, dirty Electro side of things Rimmer London has one foot squarely in Italo Disco and the other in Chiptune.

Creating Moroder-esq grooves with 8-Bit sounds and warm analog basses these two tracks from his début EP are infections as hell!

Love that picture of him imitating Giorgio Moroder’s famous studio shot too!

Rimer London’s ‘Intercity EP’ is released 25th January on Magnetron, until the give the man some MySpace love:

Marina And The Diamonds; Hollywood reMixes

Marina03

Here at electronic rumors we love Marina And The Diamonds, we can’t help it, it’s just the way it is! If we ever need a break from the hardcore Electronics, Marina is our ‘go to’ gal.

So great news then that Marina’s forthcoming single ‘Hollywood’ (which we featured here) has some great reMix talent backing it up. UK boys Fenech-Soler serve up a storming French style Electro-House mix that really drives and makes fantastic use of the “Oh my god!” line! DFA’s resident Housemeisters The Juan MacLean bring the piano and string stabs for their Dirty House version.

Mille Vs. Fear Of Tigers

What a day for wicked collaborations!

We’ve raved about both Mille and Fear Of Tigers numerous times in the past few months and are exited that Mille has been snapped up by Neon Gold, who apparently, have the best taste in the world. A couple of days ago they dropped Mille’s first 12” ‘Crysteena’.

Combining the best elements of Nu-disco and Dreamwave with massive distorted 8-bit melodies, this track is huge! Fear Of Tigers magic touch beefs up the dancefloor factor so that when those 8-bit leas kick in you just soar away with them.

Tesla Boy reMix Anoraak

Valerie collective staple Anoraak and Russia’s Tesla Boy are both electronic rumors favourites, so the idea of one reMix the other seems just to good to be true, but here it is!

Anoraak’s ‘Nightdrive With You’ hasn’t left my MP3 player since it was released last year, alone with it’s multitude of reMixes, here Tesla Boy do something a bit different, bringing some funky guitars and more of a classic Disco Funk vibe to the ElectroPop tune.

Compare it to the original, those opening keys still send shivers up my spine!

Cagedbaby reMixes Editors

I never really got Editors, I’m not adverse to a bit of Indie, but they always struck me as really dull. As material from their next album filers out though it seems they may be taking a dark ElectroPop slant which, so far, is sounding, at least, interesting.

This time last week we posted the Boys Noize reMix of the forthcoming single ‘You Don’t Know Love’ and now we bring you the Cagedbaby reMix. I love a bit of Cagedbaby and he works his dancey ElectroPop magic here whilst keeping the sombre, dramatic tone.

‘You Don’t Know Love’ will be out 25th January.

Catch the MEN

JD Samson of Le Tigre’s band MEN are finally heading for the UK for a bunch of shown in London and to drum up a little bit extra interest they’ve dropped a couple of reMixes of their ballad ‘Simultaneously’.

New Brooklyn based outfit Tête-À-Tête really do a good job, turning the tune into a full-on ElectroPop floorfiller complete with House piano and Soaring lead lines. Hipster DJ Lauren Flax chills things out more with a deep spacey mix.

Ocelot’s new single

I’m quite exited to hear Ocelot’s début album ‘No Requests’ when it is released, they’ve done some storming reMixes in recent years such as Kap10Kurt , Robyn, Muse, The Killers & Røyksopp, all of them top notch.

Before the album comes the single ‘Our Time’, a anthem for a electronic generation, featuring reMixes by the likes of Kap10Kurt, Calvertron and this one by Bird Petierson who take the vocodered vocals and hits the danceflor running!

♫ Ocelot – Our Time (Bird Peterson reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire)

‘Our Time’ is out soon on Wall Of Sound.
