Classic Brothers reMixed by Rimer London

We’re quite the fans of Rimer London (Le Le’s Rimeroni Vumani) here at electronic rumors towers.

His latest work is a reMix of dance duo Classic Brothers’ ‘Munchies’ which is amazing in that way Vumani is able to produce Disco tunes that sound like the inner working of an overload computer form the future. Analog and electronic, Rimmer London’s music is Nu-Disco from an alternate dimension where traditional instruments were never invented. This is pure, and awesome, computer Disco!

Diamond Cut take Cullen to new heights

OK, this is something pretty special. Well, it’s a Diamond Cut reMix so it’s bound to be!

It’s a reMix of Cullen’s new single, ‘Crazy Enough’. We’ve featured Cullen before, he’s a kinda’ BedroomPop act from Down Under who has dropped some nice tunes in the past. Fellow Aussies Diamond Cut work their magic on his new single and what emerges is a huge, sweeping, 80’s sounding, DiscoPop track. Subtle guitar licks echo hauntingly in the background while Cullen’s impassioned vocals and DC’s soaring synth lines power the track on and on.

Great stuff!

Cullen’s ‘Crazy Enough’ single is out soon.

Tesla Boy’s ‘Rebecca’ drops today

From today you can pick yourself up the new EP by Russia ElectroPop kings Tesla Boy on Mullet Records.

Over the past two years tesla Boy have shown themselves to be right at the top of the Dreamwave sounding ElectroPop game and last years ‘Modern Thrills’ was one of our top 20 albums of the 2010.

Taken from that album, ‘Rebecca’ is a fantastic choice of a single and perfectly showcases Tesla Boy’s emotional take on Nu-Disco.

Check the video:

The ‘Rebecca’ EP is out right now as a Juno exclusive and hits other retailers 7th February.

Starsmith reMixes Gypsy And The Cat

A few weeks ago ElectroPop producer extraordinaire Starsmith did a streaming video studio chat thing. While most of the airtime seemed to be Fin realising it was a bad idea ‘cos he was trying to get on with some work while the internet was shouting at him, the actual track he was working on was very interesting. It was a reMix of Gypsy And The Cat, now quite old, track ‘Jona Vark’. And here it is!

The appearance of this mix and rumors of some other pretty cool reMixers seems to confirm the track is getting a re-release, with this mix at the forefront this tune could go huge. Starsmith walks the line between ElectroPopping up the actual song and getting some deep Moog Disco going. There is so much going on in this song that is really is a credit to Starsmith’s mixing skills that it all sits together so well.

♫ Gypsy And The Cat – Jona Vark (Starsmith reMix)

No idea when the ‘Jona Vark’ single is out but it’s still available on Gypsy And The Cat’s album ‘Gilgamesh’

Toro Y Moi gets reMixed by Fiero

The Fiero boys are back and more 80s than ever!

With a bassline that’s got more bounce than a rubber ball and some synth horns straight from a mid 80s episodes of Top Of The Pops their reMix of Chillwave dude Toro Y Moi’s ‘Still Sound’ is like a dream of the decade of FM synthesis. It’s like dry ice and flashing neon in audio form. But this isn’t some cheesy 80s pastiche I’m chatting about here, this doesn’t try to sound retro at all, it just does, aided all the more by the wailing guitar into that leads into a B-Boy beat and some shimmering soul synths.

Is it wrong to thing Toro Y Moi should always sound like this?

♫ Toro Y Moi – Still Sound (Fiero reMix)

Y’know, those horns are one step away from orchestral stabs, and someone needs to bring orchestral stabs back right now!

‘Still Sound’ is taken from Toro Y Moi’s album ‘Underneath The Pine’

Cinnamon Chasers new album, ‘Science’

Cinnamon Chasers released his second full length album, ‘Science’ this week and I know It’s only January but I guarantee that this record will be in my top 20 of 2011!

I loved CC’s last album but this one really ups the ante. Smooth beats, Disco basslines and sweeping, epic, tracks is what this album is all about. Throughout the nine tracks heartfelt vocals and shifting vocoders intertwine with soaring synth leads to power the tunes along. Like the best Dreamwave with a slightly UK House vibe. As soon as the year gets warmer comes this is going to be my go to CD of those summer nights. Check the opening track, ‘Rocker’, it’ll leave you wanting more!”

♫ Cinnamon Chasers – Rocker

‘Science’ is out now, and as far as electronic rumors is concerned it is not only recommended, but essential!

Druma Kina

Druma Kina is the musical alter-ego of producer Simonski, from São Paulo, Brazil, who has just teamed up with new label Teenage Gang Records to drop his latest EP.

The sample heavy Disco found of the EP is complimented by an amazing collection of reMixers. The lead track on the EP ‘Walking Away’ is a funky, cut-up Nu-Disco jam with layer upon layer of Disco samples and some sweet, soulful, vocals supplied by Shell Heaven Lee. The awesome Cosmonaut Grechko take it to the next level with a Dreamwave reMix that blends seamlessly with the original track and will leave you wanting more. Cavaliers Of Fun drop their brand of quirky DiscoPop with their take on the song which evolves into an epic call and response Electro tune with added vocals and Sci-Fi solos.

Dato’s new tracks

It’s been a while since we featured Denmark’s Dato, in the inbetween time the duo have got funkier as the Disco influence on their ElectroPop sound has become more prominent.

Their latest productions show a definite one-ness with the funk, whereas their earlier tracks were more ElectroPop based. ‘Hard To Find’ is reminiscant of early Dirty Vegas with haunting vocals over a strong House groove. ‘My Life Is Perfect Now’ sees them joined, once again, by Jannie Linnebæk for a slab bass and retro synth workout that is bordering on Dreamwave. Mixing up their chilled Danish ElectroPop with a Nu-Disco vibe a makes for a really interesting laid back take on both sounds.

autoKratz get reMixed by North Lights

London’s noisy ElectroPop kings autoKratz’s new single is pretty eagerly awaited round these parts, everything we hear from it is sounding awesome.

Like this reMix from North Lights, which is Junior Thibaut, ex-one third of Disco trio Perseus, who turn in an awesome Dreamwavey Nu-Disco take on the track. Pumping up both the Electro and the Pop aspects of the track with a big slice of Disco in the breakdown. This was actually the last track that Perseus, as a trio, produced together before going their separate ways. I’m sure we can expect great things from both Perseus (as it is now) and North Lights.

Gemini Club reMixes Chilly Gonzales

Chicago’s Gemini Club are going from strength to strength, their latest production, a reMix of Electro Piano-man Chilly Gonzales forthcoming single ‘You Can Dance’, is pure gold.

Taking on a Gonzales track must be pretty daunting, the mans ‘Ivory Tower’ album is an incredible piece of work, but Gemini Club have risen to the challenge in a laid back Disco style. Interweaving electric piano with synth burbling the trio make the track slightly more urgent and include the best drop and build I’ve heard all year that kicks back into a screaming synth solo.

♫ Chilly Gonzales – You Can Dance (Gemini Club reMix)

‘You Can Dance’ will be available from 1st March with a reMix package including work from Robotaki, Max Tundra, Shadow Dancer, Edwin Van Cleef and Popular Computer.
