New Simian Mobile Disco!!!

Electro dance superstars Simian Mobile Disco are now starting the approach phase for the release of their second album, ‘Temporary Pleasure’, which is due out August 17th and will feature guest appearances by the likes of Beth Ditto, Jamie Lidell, Alexis Taylor & Telepathe.

It looks like this track, ‘Audacity Of Huge’, graced with the vocals of Yeasayer’s Chris Keating, will be the lead in single. Give it a listen, it’s a pretty fantastic mix of SMD’s hypnotic Electro-House and 80’s rock style vocals.

The week in Bangers: 24:05:09

The week in Bangers: While electronic rumors isn’t strictly an Electro-House blog, we do cover a lot of Electro-House that crosses over in to our realm. So many good club tunes and reMixes surface each week we can’t (and wouldn’t) cover them all, so this is a round up of some of the best from the week that we didn’t have time to dedicate individual posts to…

Here comes the bangers! This week we start off with French Indie gods Phoenix, as reMixed by the amazing Yuksek. One of my favourite bands, The Faint, get the treatment from Hot Pink Delorean & Knowlton Walsh and the similarly great Sneaky Sound System are talked by Stuart Price A.K.A. Thin White Duke. The Shoes reMix Golden Silvers and Alex Braxe takes on Fenech-Soler. there a new reMix of Little Boots’ ‘Stuck On Repeat’ by DJ Adamix & Oli Freke whilst Hervé goes crazy on Depeche Mode’s next single. We end as we started with Phoenix, this time reMixed by Holy Ghost!. The circle is now complete!

Frankmusik gets the Don Diablo treatment

Don Diablo is a reMix machine! The man must work 24 hours a day, he churns out quality reMix after quality reMix. His newest subject is Frankmusik, with a reMix of his forthcoming single ‘Confusion Girl’

A departure from Don’s usual bangers this reMix is a groovin’ epic that will have your head nodding and toes tapping with some interesting use of guitars on top of the synth work as Mr. Diablo plays fast and loose with Vincent’s vocals.

A perfect summer evening track.

The ‘Confusion Girl’ single drops July 6th.

Beaumont

We really liked Beaumont’s reMix of Ladyhawke that we posted here so when an email full of the man’s tunes landed in the electronic rumors Inbox we were more than interested.

Beaumont has a cool sound; a Valerie-esq retro Electro flavour with an infusion of 8-bit video game noises. What more could you ask for?

We’ve got three of his tracks here, all of them top quality Nu-Disco, with sharp FM lead lines, fat analog basses and that slight 80’s soundtrack feel that always works so well.

Beaumont’s use of bit crunched beeps and blips definitely set him apart from the pack.

♫ Beaumont – Last Night (zShare) (MediaFire)

♫ Beaumont – Recital (zShare) (MediaFire)

Beaumont also dropped his reMix of Empire Of The Sun’s ‘We Are The People’, a chord driven retro epic.

Røyksopp & Robyn’s Robot Released

I had absolutely no doubt that Røyksopp and Robyn’s ‘The girl And The Robot’ would be the next single off their fantastic album ‘Junior’.

It’s easily one of my favourite tracks of this year so far, everything an ElectroPop track should be. ‘Cos it’s so good we have a treat for you here in the shape of four of the reMixes from the forthcoming single. Kris Menace, Joakim, Château Marmont & Ocelot all bring various strains of Nu-Disco and Electro to their versions, each one a gem in it’s own right.

Damn Arms get the SexWax treatment

Ozzie reMix factory DJ SexWax has done it again with this reMix of Damn Arms’ hit ‘Destination’.

Much like his previous, this reMix is a top notch job. What we have here is a monster Disco stormer full of vocoders and screaming synth solos. The beat is infectious like swine flu!

It appears Empire Of The Sun are SexWax’s next target! Keep ‘em coming!

The ‘Destination’ single is available now on Bang Gang Records

Lily Allen; ‘Not Fair’ reMix

Here’s another track that landed in the electronic rumors Inbox during our week off.

New Zealand producer Justin Sane and his production partner Kyle Bourke have knocked out this reMix of Lily Allen’s latest single ‘Not Fair’ and it sends the track straight to the dancefloor whilst keeping the song’s pop sensibilities.

Apparently, this is tearing up the floors down NZ way!

Enjoy:
