Housse De Racket reMixed by Robotaki
Parisian Indie-ElectroPopsters Housse De Racket’s ‘Roman’ has been knocking around for a while now, with q few reMixes to it’s name. Is there room for one more? There is if it comes from the Canadian who’s name is on every-blog-body’s lips, Robotaki.
Robotaki goes big with this mix, as he tends to do. There’s some really fat sounds lurking around here, both in bass and chords, spacing out the track. With a touch of Funk, a touch of the epic Indie vibe of the original and a touch of dancefloor smash worming their way into Robotaki’s full ElectroPop sound, the whole kinda’ lifts the track, bringing out the emotion, and the groove, of the song.

Robotaki is in the process of finishing up his début EP due out in 2012.

New video from Canyons
Canyons new video for their ‘See Blind Through’ is as much of an early ‘90’s house affair as the song itself! The track features a splash of Nite Jewel’s Ramona Gonzalez.
Director Daniel Brereton must have been studying videos from everyone from Orbital to Soul II Soul!
‘See Blind Through’ is released 14 November on Modular Recordings.

Metronomy’s new single
Indie-ElectroPop darlings Metronomy’s new single ‘Everything Goes My Way’ come complete with a hold host of pretty awesome reMixes.
the single was released at the start of this week and features Veronica Fall’s Roxanne Clifford helping out with the vocals. the headliner reMix comes from Ewan Pearson, who’s deeply electronic reMix combines a retro synth bassline with the kind of intricate programming that makes me think of the first Simian Mobile Disco album, but with more of a Disco vibe. It’s great, involving, Electro stuff. Psychemagik go for a more early ‘90’s House flavour with a post-Chicago deepness (despite “post-Chicago deepness” being a dick thing to say, it does kinda’ sound like that) and just the right amount of M1 piano and airy pads.

Walter Sobcek’s ‘Miami’
Here it is, the long, long, long awaited new single from French Dreamwave/ElectroPop outfit Walter Sobcek.
‘Miami’ may have been released just as Summer is drawing to a close but within the first minute you’re put straight back into a long summer nights frame of mind. ‘Miami’ is pure, smooth, ElectroPop which leans a surprising amount on acoustic guitar, but this just adds to the hazy nostalgia of the track. Pharao Black Magic are amongst the reMix contributors. their effort brings more of a solid synthesizer Disco vibe to the tune and makes for a nice dancefloor compliment to the originals beach groove.

M83, ‘Midnight City’ the video
I’m resonably sure M83’s amazing ‘Midnight City’ already had a video, or maybe it was this one leaked weeks ago? I don’t know.
Whatever, here is the ‘new’ video for ‘Midnight City’. It’s actually a really good (it had better be, for a song as good as that) and slightly creepy Sci-Fi epic.
M83’s highly recommended album , ‘hurry Up, We’re Dreaming’ is just out.

Monsieur Adi X Visitor
Well this is certainly an unexpected treat, it’s like X-mas! The awesome Visitor reMixing the awesome Monsieur Adi! One of the best ElectroPop acts in the world reMixing one of the best Nu-Disco producers in the world. What can go wrong?
Nothing is the answer. Absolutely nothing. Visitor gently nude the amazing original into their slick ElectroPop style, never heavy handed with it, this sounds like a real meeting of minds where visitor took the core of the track and ran with it, rather than ran over it. Visitor have been buried away in their studio for so long you forget how talented they are, I just wish they’d hurry up with their album.

Nyteowl & Hyboid
Nyteowl are a Minneapolis outfit that mixes up ElectroPop styles in a thick Deep House groove on their new single ‘Love Of Mine’.
With a slight R&B slant to the vocals and a smooth synthesizer Funk leaning to the synths the track breaks out from he confines of the Detroit bassline to embrace everything that comprises it. It’s mid-temp Pop groove sitting surprisingly well with classic House bassline. The 12” is out soon on Juno Records new label Love Interest and features a reMix by our friends Hyboid who bring in a nice ‘80’s quality to the track, rolling arpeggiated basslines and electro toms bring up the energy from the laid back original and plant to squarely on the dancefloor that reaches it’s peak when the shimmering, chime solo come in and sends the track skyrocketing.
