Here we have another sneak peek at Fan Death’s forthcoming, eagerly anticipate, EP ‘A Coin In The Well’!
‘Cannibal’ has got more of the strings 7 disco vibe that ‘Veronica’s Veil’ had compared to ‘Reunited’, the last track we heard. I couldn’t pick between the two for lead track though, I honestly can’t wait to hear the rest!

The ‘A Coin For The Well’ EP is out soon on The Pharmacy Recording Co. .
Ellie Goulding’s ‘Under the Sheets’ dropped yesterday and is destined for major success, the music blogosphere is awash with reMixes.
Here’s some of the best that have landed in the electronic rumors inbox. Baby Monster’s mix is making waves and it’s a pounding retro styled pop affair while The Knocks produce a Electro jam with a wicked big synth bassline. Pariah’s spacey Dubstep builds to an almost garage beat for it’s finale.

Sarah McIntosh A.K.A. The Good Natured is currently making tiny ripples amongst the UK music press having been championed by, amongst others, The NME, The Guardian and PopJustice. Tiny ripples that are sure to grow into ElectroPop waves!
Beats that range from laidback grooves to more dancefloor and Drum & Bass tinged patterns provide the backdrop for cheap synths and Sarah’s heartfelt vocals.
Sounding a lot more raw and exiting than many of her contemporary female singer/songwriters, The Good Natured is a UK female fronted ElectroPop act who are headed for dark, dingy clubs rather than her peer’s glossy retro discos!

You can pick up The Good Natured ‘s ‘Your Body Is A Machine’ EP from either their MySpace or from Rough Trade records.

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:

This time he’s tackling (possible split) London Indie darlings The XX’s anthem ‘shelter’ and delivers his usual quality churning the tune into a huge, soulful, Electro-House banger!

LA Experimental Electronica artist Daedelus is taking our Little Boots is strange new directions!
Industrial percussion and droning synths shouldn’t really work with Victoria’s Pop ditty, but you know what? It does!
It’s like The Little Boots Of The Apocalypse has come to crush us all!

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.

The reMix works really well, DTL’s heavy warp bass actually complimenting the vocals, and you can’t go wrong with…er…arpeggiated steal drums!!!

What a day! Kicking off with new Shy Child and rounding up with the new single from The Golden Filter!
‘Thunderbird’ is their second single after the fantastic début ‘Sold Gold’ earlier this year and it doesn’t fail to live up to the high expectations that were set. It’s got that Golden Filter bass, those Disco drums and the floaty vocals that ‘Solid Gold’ had but manages to be a completely different sounding song, with a different atmosphere, more edgy.
If you loved ‘Solid Gold’, you’ll love this. End of.

The ‘Thunderbird’ 12” comes out on November 16th.
