Keenhouse’s new reMix for Christian Strobe

christianstrobe

A man who’s always been a bit ahead of the game when it comes to retro synths dance music, Keenhouse, provides one of the reMixes for Christian Strobe’s début single.

Christian Strobe is the brand new solo-project of Christian Schnall, fifty percent of Disco Trash Music and Spruce, who’s ‘Midnight Call’ is a deep Housey ElectroPop track that Keenhouse gives a summery piano led sheen. Bringing a slightly Balearic vibe to his work Keenhouse combines the sunrise beats with a massive 90’s House riff and Nu-Disco production that uplifts the vocals into a euphoric anthem that seems to keep adding layer upon layer of emotional sounds.

♫ Christian Strobe – Midnight Call (Keenhouse reMix)

♫ Christian Strobe – Midnight Call (Radio Edit)

‘Midnight Call’ is out now on 12” and drops on the 22nd July digitally.

Syncdrifters

Syncdrifters

Syncdrifters are a slick Electro-Funk-Pop outfit from Warsaw who, after a run of reMixes have dropped a spanking new tune ‘Just A Game’

Featuring the vocals of Ela Stasiuk, ‘Just A Game’ is a totally infectious track with equal helpings of Funk, Disco and ElectroPop. Densely packed synth bass and Disco leads pack out this massive tune, topped of with catchy vocals. Hold tight for the guitar solo, it’s brings the 80’s crashing into a song which you’re probably going to be hearing a lot of in the coming months.

Masters Of The Radio’s new track

Masters Of The Radio

Cheshire SynthPoppers Masters Of The Radio are back with a brand new track.

Their first new tune for a few months, ‘Easy Now’ show they haven’t been sitting on their hands this past while. The production on ‘Easy Now’ is a lot slicker than previous offerings boding well for their forthcoming début EP ‘The Pleasure Age’. The song itself is more of Masters Of The Radio’s authentic sounding retro SynthPop. With their early Mute sound, the sound of vintage drum machines, analog drones and post-punk vocals. ‘Easy Now’ adds a catchy anthemic chorus to the mix that’ll get stuck in your head for days.

Chromeo & Hercules And Love Affair

Hercules And Love Affair are next up to reMix Chromeo’s next single, ‘When The Night Falls’.

Focusing on vintage synths, B-Boy Electro & House beats and Solange Knowles vocals H&LA’s reMix provides a nice contract to the funkin’ original and the super funkin’ Breakbot reMix. There’s even an element of Chiptune as the track progresses. If you are at all a fan of Chromeo and electronic music you’re going to love this. It’s a bit of a synth geek track, but in a way with groove.

♫ Chromeo – When The Night Falls (Hercules And Love Affair reMix)

Chromeo’s ‘When The Night Falls’ single is due to drop 25th July.

EarthMoonEarth reMix Mike Posner

MikePosner

I gotta’ be honest, I have no idea whatsoever who Mike Posner is. Is he big in the States? I had a quick listen and wasn’t impressed.

However, I do like this reMix of ‘Please Don’t Go’ from ElectroPop production outfit EarthMoonEarth. It’s got a rocking, huge, synth bass and all the flourishes in just the right places. EarthMoonEarth have got such a good grasp of both Pop and Electro Dance music and their particular combination works really well. I just wish they’d reMix something a bit less…wanky.

Penguin Prison reMixed by Goldroom & Disco Bloodbath

penguinprison

Disco Bloodbath take Penguin Prison on a trip to the deep side.

This low groove, almost progressive, reMix of Penguin Prison’s ‘Fair Warning Pt. 2’ is both hypnotic and engrossing. Utilising pitched down vocals just adds to the body shaking flow of this track with just the right side of too much cowbell. Binary and NightWaves man Josh Legg’s Goldroom project’s reMix has been getting some serious mixtape love, and deservedly too. It’s grabs the track and drags it straight to the beach for a party. Summery vibes and good times are on the cards with Goldroom’s mix, full of flying arpeggios and uplifting chords.

Edwin Van Cleef reMixes MiGHty mOUse

MiGHty mOUsebpas

Oh boy, been waiting for this one! We’ve been pretty enamoured with MiGHty mOUse’s ‘Between The Pavement And The Stars’ for a couple of months now, we love it’s Heaven 17 Disco vibe and ever since we were teased with Edwin Van Cleef’s reMix in his May mixtape it has been on out list of ‘things we really need to hear’.

So here it is, and it doesn’t disappoint. Cleefy brings it deep and smooth with an uplifting sunrise Disco version of Might Mouse’s first single as a full band.. There’s a nice amount of space in Edwin’s mix, it’s not cluttered or over layered, it’s got an infectious groove and gives the tune room to breathe. The distant guitar licks and and Tropical percussion conjure a relaxed vibe that presents the vocals in a new light. The whole song has a totally different, but complimentary, feel to the original.

♫ MiGHty mOUse – Between The Pavement And The Stars (Edwin Van Cleef reMix)

‘Between The Pavement And The Stars’ is released 18th July with a stellar line up of reMix talent including Mario Basanov, Edwin Van Cleef, Blamma! Blamma!, Tronik Youth, and Tareq.
