T&K’s ‘On Your Hands’ video

Here’s the video for T&K’s ‘On Your Hands’, we checked out their album earlier in the week and were pretty damn impressed.

The clip was directed by monsieurFrancois from the animations of Akinori Oishi, the whole thing is pretty damn cute, if a little surreal.

T&K’s album is out 24th October on On The Fruit Records, until then check them out on SoundCloud.

Mjolnir reMixed by Camara

Mjolnir

Fresh out of  being part of yesterday’s amazing Shiny Disco Club release, Millennium Disco Volume 2, Indonesian ElectroPop crew Mjolnir have dropped us Brazilian producer Camara’s reMix of ‘Just A Boy’.

We featured ‘Just A Boy’ in our first ever post on Mjolnir way back when and we loved it’s ‘80’s epicness. Camara bring a deep House groove to the table with a nice ‘90’s piano line to break-up the rolling bassline. The reMix works well with the retro vocals and gives a whole new perspective on the track.

Meridian reMix Monarchy

monarchy

As more and more reMixes of Monarchy and Britt Love new single ‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ it becomes harder to stand out from the pack. Let’s see if this official mix from Meridian does the job.

It’s actually a pretty straight-up dance mix, which is a good thing as there hasn’t been one yet. It drags the song into the big room for some peak of the night euphoric gold. There’s no surprises here, nothing new, but it has a job to do and does it well. Big sounds, filter sweeps, emotional piano, all present and working together like an oiled dancefloor machine.

Monarchy (Feat. Britt Love) – You Don’t Want To Dance With Me (Meridian reMix)

‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ originally comes from the ‘Around The Sun’ album, out now, the single comes out this month.

Jordan F’s ‘Last Night’

jordan f

One of the things I love about producers interacting with listeners on social media is they are always offering incentives for followers or likes, and in that situation everyone wins!

So, one of out favourite Aussie synth wizards Jordan F has offered up this track in celebration of hitting the 550 fans mark on Facebook. Surely the man deserves more than this? Jordan makes those synths sing. As a producer he’s definitely finding the right balance between emotive and atmospheric, and dancefloor as his tunes both conjure up and emotional resonance but are also a stomping good time.
