Edwin Van Cleef is Overtaken

He’s dropped some killer remixes in recent times and it’s finally time for UK Dreamwave producer Edwin Van Cleef to release his début EP, ‘Overtaken’ and it’s already getting some Radio1 love!

‘Overtaken’ is a pumping House tune washed with soaring 80’s synth. With the mainstream radio play maybe Edwin is finally bringing the Dreamwave/Valerie-esq sound to the masses!

The reMix is provided by Mille who, already this month, wowed us with his mix of Marina And The Diamonds’ ‘Mowgli’s Road’. Here his work doesn’t drop the ball, quality-wise and his name defiantly goes on the “I’ll probably like reMixes by…” pile!

He even drops some C64/SID sounds toward the end for some massive 8-bit disco!

New Atomizer album out today!

Atomizer, being ex-Specimen keyboardist Johnny Slut and his DJ partner Fil OK, spearheaded the London electro scene in the early 2000’s with their legendary club night Nag Nag Nag, and arguably helped kick-off the Electro resurgence we are enjoying today.

Today they drop their second full length studio album after a run of fantastic EPs, titled ‘Cult Of Europa’ and it’s the sleazy, twisted, noisy SynthPop affair you would expect from these two, with a healthy dose of Acid burbling.

Check these tracks from the album:

Gatekeeper

If the Valerie crew are obsessed with 80’s teen and Sci-Fi movies then Chicago’s Gatekeeper must feel similarly about 80’s horror flicks.

50% hypnotic Electro-House and 50% John Carpenter-esq horror themes, Gatekeeper are the dark side of Dreamwave. The tracks have a sense of a mid 80’s industrial influence to them as well, kinda’ like an instrumental Skinny Puppy reMixed by Russ Chimes!

Whether your a fan of 80’s movie themes, dark Electronic music or the current crop of 80’s influenced Electro-House there is defiantly something for you here.
