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!

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.

Curxes new track

Hello, did someone order a heavyweight slab of ElectroPop with a side order of rapid fire Industrial percussion? Curxes will be over shortly with your order.

Curxes latest offering , ‘Haunted Gold’, is like a big ol’ slab of Post-Punk without all that tedious mucking around with guitars. Kicking off with a true Einstürzende Neubauten style riff on the bass washing machine, the track is dominated by a jump-up beat, if jump-up beats were made by tank drivers, and Roberta’s finest Siouxsie intensity. Industrial, real Industrial, is quite a feat, production wise, but Curxes have pretty much nailed it with ‘Haunted Gold’ and produced an vivid and haunting track that is only sweetened but some awesome little synth riffs and a really nice ‘80’s drop.

World Tour’s new EP

World Tour

April will see the release of Sweedish three peice eclectic outfit World Tour’s third EP, ‘Believe’, on the home of all things Chilly, Wavey, Interestingy and Left-Field Poppy, Cascine.

This new EP is comprised of four tracks worth of chilled beats and slow-mo Piano House riffs and impassioned wailing from the tundra. An intricately crafted mix of introspective Indie and synth happy electronica, the ‘Believe’ EP is geared toward those times when you need to just stop and take everything in, this isn’t music for those in a hurry. The title track of the EP mixes up wrong speed House and a slightly oriental slant for an end result that makes everything go a bit hazy.

Lovefoxxx & Steve Aoki

OK, so I’m really not a fan of Steve Aoki, I find his music mostly pretty tedious. Derivative and simplistic I have no idea how he got famous, it seems generally from ‘knowing people’ rather than ‘being good at music or DJing’. However, I flippin’ love Lovefoxx and thankfully Mr Aoki hasn’t made something completely terrible in ‘Heartbreaker’, their collaboration.

It’s a surprisingly good, pretty funky, Electro Disco tune that’s actually catchy as hell which I’m loving more each time I listen to it. It comes with an ace video too! You’ve earned yourself a temporary reprieve Mr. Aoki, but we’re watching you.

‘Heartbreaker’ is taken from Steve Aoki’s album, ‘Wonderland’, out now.

The Penelopes reMixed by The Flight (& Edwin Van Cleef)

The Penelopes

Quirky French ElectroPop duo The Penelopes release their new single at the beginning of next month. ‘Sally In The Galaxy’ is an uplifting, catchy track with a package that comes loaded with ace reMixes.

Producers of the original version, The Flight, who apparently have zero web-presence, drop their ‘Galactic’ reMix and it’s a fittingly title slab of Cosmic Disco. Weighing in heavy with their vocoders and sweet soaring synths The Flight, who still apparently have zero web-presence, strip the gangly Indie side of the track out, layer on their own Sci-Fi funk and what remains is a smooth beach Disco track fit for chilling on the Shores of Orion. It’s a nice contrast to the original’s fuzzy French Indie/Disco soundclash Pop sound. Both are equally infectious.
