Freak You reMixes Goldroom

goldroom

Drewamwave originator (literally) Goldroom and Australian vocalist Chella’s ‘Fifteen’ saw a stunning return to what Dreamwave was supposed to be about, nostalgic good times and emotional resonance with a good groove. the track has made quite a stir since it dropped early last month, so much so that Josh, under pressure from admirers, released the acapella to the public.

Luckily for us it was picked up by On The Fruit Records main man and all round top DiscoElectroPop producer Freak You. Freak You washed the track ain layers and layers of right tones and lush pads. So much so that the track is actually borderline Chillwave. More Chillwave with a proper Disco beat. The swirling masses of starlight arpeggios forming a wall of melody that weaves in and out of the reverb washed vocals to create something quite magical. Like a Disco dream, it’s all beats and soft-focus.

Lissi Dancefloor Disaster & Le Prix

Lissi Dancefloor Disaster

We took a look at Swedish ElectroPoppers Lissi Dancefloor Disaster’s video for their new single, ‘Singing My Heart Out’ earlier in the week, so now is as good a time as any to get involved with the single and a stunning reMix from one of our faves, Le Prix.

If you checked the video you’ll already know what ‘Singing My Heart Out’ is all about. It’s a rich, beautiful ElectroPop track that gets it’s serious Disco groove on. Deep rushing synths and marching drums create something instantly recognisable as Scandinavian but with just the right amount of groove in there too. It’s a rousing and involving slick of alternative SacndiPop. the main reMix, alongside a Glichty Lo-Fi version from Den Svenska Björnstammen), comes from Le Prix, who provides a laid back synthy track chock full of Le Prix’s trademark SynthWave atmospherics that compliments the impassioned vocals really well. Lissi have been around for while, but we think this is their best work to date, and hopefully the single that gains them some of the attention the so readily deserve.

Aimes’ ‘Somewhere In Space We Hang Suspended’

Aimes

Hot on the heels of his new single, ‘Step Away’, Brooklyn based Chilly-Synthwaver Aimes is already planning the release of his new EP for TEEEL’s Synthemesc imprint. The ‘Beautiful Decay’ EP is out later this month but we can check out the lead track right now.

‘Somewhere In Space We Hang Suspended’ is a beautiful, atmospheric peice that brings as cosmic, and quite lonely vibe to the table. Spacious and multi-layered, this is a tune that sparks the imagination. From it’s undulating, intertwining arpeggios, to it’s distant leads and haunting vocals, this track really is somewhere in space hanging suspended, and it takes you there.  A nice mix of ElectroPop, Indie-Electro and Chillwave Aimes’ EP should be something to look forward to.

Purity Ring’s ‘Belispeak’ video

We first featured Purity Ring’s third single ‘Belispeak’ in august of last year. Now, with the imbuement release of their début album on (4AD no less!), they’ve put together a video for the track.

The 808 beats and warping synths mixed with Megan James’ epic vocal performance always needed is video with a large scale and this clip directed by BREWER, with some swampy cinematics has done the trick.

Purity Ring’s debut album ‘Shrines’ is in stores 24th July.

Camouflage Lodge

camouflagelodge

Camouflage Lodge is a new one-man project from the keyboard player from one of our favourite Indie-electro acts, Tubetops. Kevin Bendis has taken on the Camouflage Lodge moniker to put together some really sweet summer ElectroPop tunes and has just released his début EP, for free. Check it out.

The ‘Old Haunts’ EP hold four tracks of hazy, blissed out synthesizer IndiePop with a chilled beach theme running through it. From the opening track, ‘Séance On The Beach’, the EP conjures feelings of nostalgia  through the liberal sprinkling of Indie guitar amongst the Dreamwavey synths. Admittedly sometimes the EP does veer into slightly Indie dirge territory, but when Camouflage Lodge hits the good weather, good times, retro Pop vibe, he hits it perfectly. Definitely one for the coming good weather.

♫ Camouflage Lodge – Sub Cult Shore

The ‘Old Haunts’ EP is out now, for free.
