The Presets’ ‘Youth In Trouble’

You know what I thought when I went to bed last night? I thought ‘I hope there’s a new track from The Presets released when I wake up’, their first new track for four years’. Look what happened!

Youth In Trouble is finally out today. A hypnotic, undulating, acidic odyssey. Both abrasive and funky as hell. Yoshi Sodeoka directs the video effects hell video, an assault on the senses to match the track.

Youth In Trouble is out now with reMixes from Green Velvet, Alex Metric, and The Finger Prince & Light Year (although we can find it in any store that sells decent quality downloads yet, just iTunes).

The Presets new album Pacifica is out 14th September on Modular.

Rocco Raimundo’s ‘Do You Wanna’?’

Rocco Raimundo

The ‘90’s House sound has now infiltrated everything, not that that’s a bad thing but four years ago we wouldn’t have expected it to be the next big thing. Now it is however the nostalgia is really fun. Which comes as no shock as House in the late ‘80’s and early ‘90’s was all about the fun. Disco dons want in on the act too, normally renowned for his late night Disco boogie Mr. Rocco Raimundo’s latest SoundCloud drop is positively ‘90’s House.

Not surprising really, as his tune, Do You Wanna’? is based around Salt ‘N’ Pepa’s Do You Really Want Me, taking it’s main loop and vocal snatches Raimundo turns a Pop Rap track into deep Chicago House and makes it look effortless. Phasing in and out the smallest of vocal sample and letting the hook, with some added deep bass groove, do the work of pumping out a hypnotic jam. Whether Disco or House, Rocco Raimundo can work the dancefloor.

♫ Rocco Raimundo – Do You Wanna’?

Rocco Raimundo’s new single, This Is The Love, is out next month.

MiGHty mOUse reMixes Moonlight Matters

moonlight-matters

Moonlight Matters (Seba from Villa)’s Gustaph from Hercules And Love Affair featuring Come For Me is easily one of the tracks of the year so far, along with a handful of other release it’s really breaking that post Bomb The Bass late ‘90’s Pop sound that just so darn fun. What better to put the icing on the cake that a reMix from London’s dancefloor controller MiGHty mOUse.

The mOUse takes the Chicago House elements of the track and runs with them. It’s an epic song and MM really works that by bringing us down into a hypnotic groove for the verses and then sending us skyrocketing into a massive piano led, euphoric chorus. MM really works the diva nature of the vocals by building tension and adding layers to the verses as they build toward the chorus, where the tension breaks into pure uplifting anthem territory. It’s the attention to detail that really makes this mix shine, full of intricate details, from the percussion to the sampling, it’s impeccable produced, giving it something to rock dancefloors and something to rock your headphones. The track isn’t on the single, it’s an added bonus, so grab the download now.

♫ Moonlight Matters (Feat. Gustraph) – Come For Me (MiGHty mOUse reMix)

Moonlight Matters’ Come For Me EP is out now via Kitsuné Music.

Bit Funk’s new tune

Bit Funk

Brooklyn Disco don Bit Funk is back with a brand new tune, and one with such a summery groove that it’ll make the sun shine wherever you are. Even if you live in Alaska. Bit Funk seems to have been a bit quiet of late so this new track is a most welcome return.

It Ain’t Easy walks a tightrope, balanced between Nu-Disco and House. Taking in the funky little licks and laid back beats of Nu-Disco and coupling them with a solid House bassline and vocal snatches, Bit Funk has conjured up to perfect tune for late night dancefloors. That deep bassline is the real core of the track, giving it a nice nostalgic flavour.

Anna Lunoe & Friends

Anna Lunoe

Future Classic , this week, released the new single from Australian DJ and songstress Anna Lunoe. The single sees her teaming up with fellow Aussie producers to funky effect and is accurately billed under Anna Lunoe & Friends.

The two originals on the single, the A-Side Real Talk and its flip, I Met You see Anna Lounoe collaborating with Touch Sensitive and Flume respectively. Touch Sensitive is Michael Di Francesco of Van She, so you know to expect some Tropical vibes. You may no be prepared for just how Tropical it really is though. It’s like a Bounty advert and Chicago House had offspring. Chopped up vocal and a big piano hook sit nicely alongside the island percussion in a ‘90’s House track that you won’t be able to help your self smiling to. Flume’s team-up, I Met You, brings more of a laid back Disco infused ElectroPop vibe to the EP. Indescribably summery, the twisted Moog synth line and hollow bass making for some seriously chilled Disco vibes. Anna’s intimate vocal draws you in to a pure feel good tune, in fact the whole EP is just about chilled summer good times. Pure part soundtrack stuff. The master of the Disco edit Late Nite Tuff Guy gets in on the action too with a Dub of I Met You. He works his Nu-Disco magic and sends the track straight to the danceflor. Check the EP for a mix from DJ HMC for some jump up party house.

Digitalism’s ‘Encore’ reMixes

Digitalism

German Electro masters Digitalism are currently gearing up for the release of the eagerly awaited DJ-KICKS mix album, and reeling from an interview from us but still have time to drop new tracks. ‘Encore’ dos what it says on the tin, it’s a Beatport exclusive companion to their DJ-KICKS release featuring two reMixes from one of their new tracks.

First up is renowned German House producer Solomun, who’s deep mix is so analog and retro that is boarders on SynthWave. Sparse but groovy, Solomun really milks his robo Funk bassline and ‘80’s chords to maximum effect whist nodding to Digitalism’s Electro roots in the breakdown. Spiller teams up with 2 Guys In Venice produce exactly the kind of filtered Disco House that you would expect from names like these getting together. It’s funky as all hell, but a little meandering considering who’s involved.
