I’m absolutely loving Nero’s latest Dubstep offering ‘Me And You’!
The track, championed by Annie Mac, is like an 80’s action movie theme, Dubstep style! With extra helpings of video game goodness, the video is perfectly fitting too.
Nero drop ‘Me And You’ on 3rd January.
Here is the new video from T.E.E.D., also known as Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. It’s the title track from his ‘Household Goods’ EP.
The introverted, bleepy ElectroPop track with the chorus that is killing the Radio right now get a slick video with loads of early 90’s design elements and, er, silver foil hats. It’s a really cool song though that totally grows on you.
The ‘Household Goods’ EP is out now.

This fell into the electronic rumors Inbox, from who knows where, alongside a cryptic email that..well, read for yourself: “”life forms, remove the shackles of the bondage that they keep you in: GET FREE. This is your time to wake up from the heavy heavy sedation” The Arganoids are coming. No, they are already here. Eat. Work. Drink. Fuck. Sleep. GET FREE. IROK is the parallel. IROK is your escape. IROK is the Republic where we will meet in sweat, blood and joy.”.
So, I know nothing about the guys who make this track, I.R.O.K., and I’m not sure I want to ask, but the song’s very cool. It’s a real grower.
Titled ‘Oo Aa Oo’ (you’ll see why when you listen), it’s a weird mash up of ElectroPop styles that shouldn’t really work in one song, but really does. Starting off with a real 90’s Pop vibe, it quickly displays moments of 80’s SynthPop genius (including a wicked sax solo!) and throws you around between the Balearic and the Cosmic before the big 80’s soundtrack finale. It’s almost exhausting (in a good way)and shows a real confidence of songwriting and a lot of studio fun.
It’s an interesting début that defiantly earns I.R.O.K. the position of a band to keep an eye on.
The ‘Oo Aa Oo’ single is out now:
Frankmusik premiered the video for his forthcoming new single ‘The Fear Inside’ today. It’s a grainy, black & white, affair that sees Vincent Frank heading, well, somewhere, hot chick in tow. The silhouette shots in front the giant warehouse window are well 80’s!
Still lovin’ the sounds in this track!
‘The Fear Inside’ and Frankmusik’s new album, ‘Do It In The AM’ are due for release in 2011.
Projection Mapping is an awesome looking technique where images are projected onto a the flat surface of a building to make it appear 3D stuff is happening.
This technique has been put to it’s full use in a 9 minute Tron: Legacy show on the side of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in London set to Daft Punk’s stunning soundtrack.
Give it a watch!
The performance was created using 6x18k projectors with audio from an 8k D&B sound rig.
Tron: Legacy hit cinemas 17th December, seems like so long to wait! Daft Punk’s soundtrack is released tomorrow!
This weekend Annie Mac premiered one of the reMixes featuring on Fenech-Soler’s forthcoming single, ‘Demons’ on her show.
A reMix by none other than Yuksek, a man from whom we hear far to little. This new Yuksek production is just as badass as we remember him and takes an already incredible song and turns it into a deep Electro Disco epic.
Can’t wait for this to be released!
♫ Fenech-Soler – Demons (Yuksek reMix) (Radio Rip)
Fenech-Soler release the ‘Demons’ single in January and their self-titled album is out now.
Cassette Schwarzenegger…just take a moment to soak in that bandname.
Have you finished revelling in the awesomeness? Right, I’ll continue…
Hailing from Seoul, Korea, Cassette Schwarzenegger are labelmates with he hotly tipped StardonE and produce some of the smoothest DiscoPop we’ve heard in a while. Their new single, ‘Play’, is a pure party tune and accompanied by a wicked fun animated video by Studio Shelter.
Check it out:
We can present the single for you right here, along with a reMix be StardonE that really deserves your attention!

I don’t know much about Tennessee production duo EarthMoonEarth but the dropped this awesome reMix of Britney Spears’ ‘Toxic’ in the electronic rumors inbox that I had to share with you peeps.
Their gift to Britney on her 29th Birthday the track is top quality ElectroPop. The Multi-layered mix is full of nuanced riffs and lead lines that seemingly weave in and out of each other. Oh, and it’s a badass dancefloor tune with some killer dirty synth work and a slight Disco flavour.
Give it a test drive!

This coming week sees UK Disco-heads Mighty Mouse release their début artist album.
Titles ‘Song With No Words’ the album consists of ten ‘Movements’ ranging electronic Lounge Jazz to Cosmic Disco to pure smooth Funk. Meticulously crafted and staggeringly well produced the album is more of a journey through analog grooves, flowing from one track to the next, than ten straight songs and manages to sound almost cinematic at times.
Check out ‘Movement 5’, one of the jazzier tracks on the record, but who doesn’t like a little jazz in their lives every now and then?
♫ Mighty Mouse – Movement 5 (Radio Edit)
‘Song With No Words’ is released 6th December on History/Disco Circus Records.
Check out this collaboration between Electro-House universal dominator Deadmau5 and Pop newbie Neon Hitch.
The brand new track is a really interesting slice of electronic Pop and manages to sound very Deadmau5 without sounding like anything he’s ever done. It’s an odd one, the groove is really commercial yet the production is trademark Deadmau5. Odd, but good.
♫ Deadmau5 (Feat. Neon Hitch) – I Can’t Behave Myself
I reckon this will probably end up being Neon Hitch’s début single with Deadmauy5 on production credits.
