Joe Goddard reMixes Tyson

Hot Chip man Joe Goddard is on a roll this year, and surely the busiest guy in UK Electro. From Hot Chip, to 2Bears, to his solo stuff he just continually churns out to quality electronics.

Electro Quirk-Popster  Tyson is the recipient of Mr. Goddard’s latest work. The original is transformed into a deep, abstract, slice of Pop House with just the right amount of Disco to keep it funky while Tyson warbles over the top.

Chairlift’s new track

Chairlift

Chairlift didn’t used to be this funky did they?

The Brooklyn (now) duo get into a mid-‘80’s boogie frame of mind in their new track ‘Peculiar Paradise’ , oh it’s got all the hallmarks of Chairlift’s introspective electronic Indie but with added New Jack Swing. The result is a weird, but pretty awesome, mixing bowl full of experimental Pop, Indie-Electro and ‘80’s electronic Soul with a shoulder moving bassline, hints of sax & Labyrinth-esque chimes and a surprisingly catchy vocal hook.

Chairlift – Peculiar Paradise

Chairlift’s new album should be out early 2012.

The Golden Filter premières ‘Syndromes’

The Golden Filter have premièred their ‘Syndromes’ short film on the Future Shorts YouTube channel.

I won’t give away any spoilers ‘cos it’s embedded just below and only ten minutes long, so you should watch it. I don’t know of The Golden Filter or director Kristoffer Borgli would thank me for calling it a post-modern superhero movie, but I’m going to anyway.

The soundtrack is amazing!

The movie is officially released along with the New York avant-Disco duo’s soundtrack on the 10th.

A whole host of Strange Talk reMixes

strange talk

Usually when so many tracks or reMixes arrive in the inbox over the a few weeks the artist has got something new to sell.

Not so with Strange Talk. You’ve already heard the EP, you’ve seen the videos, heard the reMixes, you already bounced around all summer to ‘Climbing Walls’, no here is some new reMixes just to let you know that the guys are still here, touring Australia right now, and will be back soonish with a new single. That’s it, just like “Hello, we’re still here, have a some reMixes from Van She and Tim Fuchs. Laters”. So enjoy a welcome return from Van She Tech and their bassy Disco mix, Strange Talk’s own analog ‘80’s ElectroPop workout and Mr. Fuchs’ Deep House take on ‘Eskimo Boy’ and remember, Strange Talk aren’t dead.

Strange Talk – Climbing Walls (Van She Tech reMix)

Strange Talk – Climbing Walls (Strange Talk reMix)

Strange Talk – Eskimo Boy (Tim Fuchs reMix)

Their new single ‘Sexual Lifestyle’ should be coming out soon.

T&K’s début album

t&k

T&K are a French ElectroPop duo who are gearing up for the late October release of their début album on On The Fruit Records.

Having had a few tracks floating around for the last few years this album represents everything the pair have been building over their career. Both he tracks ‘Line Of Light’ and ‘On Your hands’ are doing the blog rounds right now and both are very good examples of the type of ElectroPop to be found on the record. T&K’s sound is, confusingly, 50% really French, but also, strangely,50% really English. Their sound is deeply rooted in early British SynthPop, both in attitude & approach and sound but is given such a distinct French twist it’s unmissable. Much of the album sounds, to me, like a purely electronic, female fronted version of The Teenagers, the tracks have a similar structure, with a hint of Saint Etienne. This is easily one of the purest SynthPop albums to be released this year. With it’s intricate attention to melody and it’s quirky French leanings I’d say this record is pretty recommended.

♫ T&K – Unique Key

♫ T&K – Line Of Light

♫ T&K – Little Cloud

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

Queen Of Hearts’ ‘Shoot The Bullet’ video

Boom! It’s the video for Queen Of Hearts’ ‘shoot The Bullet’ which, having a video, we presume is the lead track from her ‘Arrival EP’.

The The Sound Of Arrows produced track less catchy dancefloor, more sweeping SynthPop epic and might just possible be my favourite Queen track so far. Gotta’ love a bit of majesty in your Pop, and ‘Shoot The Bullet’ is huge and powerful.

The Arrival EP’ was released yesterday, but it now. Really. Do it.
