The Golden Filter’s new single!

TheGoldenFilter04

While we are waiting (and quite literally can’t wait any longer!) for The Golden Filter’s début long player, ‘Voluspa’, to drop on 26th April we can present here a taste of things to come in the form of the first single from the album.

‘Hide Me’ comes out just before the album release and a is a great choice for lead track. Slightly more upbeat that the previous singles. Still undeniably The Golden Filter’s New York Electro Disco but with a hint if Goldfrapp poppyness.

‘Hide Me’ is released on 19th April followed by the album on the 26th.

Monsieur Adi reMixes Ellie Goulding

EllieGoulding05

As the flood of reMix of Ellie Goulding’s excellent ‘Starry Eyed’ continues, one we have been particularly looking forward to is this one from Monsieur Adi.

Rome’s Adi has produced some fine reMixes of late and this complete recreation of Ellie’s track is the best I’ve heard from him. He rebuilds the track from the ground up into a totally different song, a huge orchestral, emotive, electro journey!

♫ Ellie Goulding – Starry Eyed (Monsieur Adi reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire)

Ellie’s ‘Starry Eyed’ is released properly on 22nd February.

Monarchy

Mystery men Monarchy have been busy with some high profile reMixes of late and we are glad to report that their track ‘Gold In The Fire’, which has been hyped for a while now, is finally getting an official release thanks to Neon Gold.

We Have Band, Flak Attack and Hidden Cat chip in with the reMix work that spans WHB’s almost tribal chilled Electro, Flak Attack’s pure dance jam and Hidden Cat’s psychedelic space Disco trip.

Polygon Palace

PolygonPalace

Melbourne based Polygon Palace, Australia’s latest weapon in their bit to talk over the ElectroPop world, have dropped this awesome track about a time machine being built in Tokyo city. Sounding a little like some of the UK LaptopPop acts but with a bigger sound, ‘Tokyo Getaway’ is SynthPop with a garage sound.

The track is completely turned around into a slap bass heavy banger by Cryptonites while fellow Aussies Cassian rebuild the original track times 100 adding a sprinkling of Disco flavour.

Priors reMixed

Priors

The track ‘What You Need’ (or at least the demo version of it) by Raw Man’s project, Priors, has been knocking ‘round the internet for a few months now. Finally it is getting a full reMix package release courtesy of Eye Industries and the smooth Nu-Disco ElectroPop jam some pretty sweet reworkings.

Grum just goes from strength to strength. His reMix here is more chilled than his usual production but it shows a laidback side to his work and is a solid slick of 80’s-esq electronic Funk. Hey Champ!’s take on the tune is more of a cut-up roller-Disco monster. Finally Allen Walker gives us the most straight-up dancefloor version

I Am Noxious

IAmNoxious

I Am Noxious is another one of those gems I’ve been meaning to write about for some time and seeing as how it’s been a quite day and the next few days really won’t be I thought now would be a nice time to write some words. Also, the man of mystery himself has just dropped a new tune ‘Stranded On Love’.

The British purveyor of quirky, left field, ElectroPop really manages to convey feeling in his tunes in the kind of way that makes you think the song came first, before the electronics.

There’s a really easy comparison to Hot Chip here, but that’s not really lazy writing, fans of The Chip will defiantly dig I Am Noxious’ heartfelt lyrics and honest vocal style just as fans if intricate Electronica will dig the beats.

Goldfrapp’s Rocket reMixes

Goldfrapp

Goldfrapp’s forthcoming comeback single (yes, I’m calling it a ‘comeback single’, what?) ‘Rocket’ has been given a couple of sweet reMix treatments.

Prolific Leeds reMixer Grum’s French House version is just the perfect style of mix for this track, all disco beats and retro synths, it’s like Goldfrapp turned up to 11! The next take is provided by, none other than, Richard X, who’s stripped down, minimal, analog synth jam is just as club friendly:

Still lovin’ the original too!

‘Rocket’ will be the first single from the album ‘Head First’.
