Aeroplane reMixes Erika Spring

Erika Spring

We’ve been diggin’ Au Revoir Simone’s Erika Spring’s solo work for the last couple of months now, but this is just the icing on the cake. Here next single for Cascine, Happy At Your Gate, reMixed by Mr. Vito Aeroplane. How’s that for a team-up?

Vito bring a touch of smooth to his electronic Disco with this reMix. it’s a slick combination of bouncy House bassline, Disco groove and vintage SynthPop lead lines. The mid-tempo pace of the track, and the steady, pulsing, dancefloor sound works perfectly with Erika’s hushed vocal. The drama in Erika’s performance is heightened as Aeroplane builds and builds toward the end of the track, increasing the tension, until it breaks for the finale. Additional production from Martin Dubka.

Happy At Your Gate is taken from Erika Spring’s self titled EP, out now on Cascine.

Nude Disco reMixes Stretch

Stretch

Stretch, the latest alter ego of Stretch & Vern/Sucker DJ’s main man Stretch Silvester, is about to release his début single on his brand new imprint Bring Back The Future. Enjoy What You Do heavily samples Wham!’s 1982 début single Wham Rap. The ever awesome Nude Disco have taken up the reMixing reins and turned in a heavy Disco-House version of the track.

Adding a much more pumping beat and a booming Italo bassline, Nude Disc beef up the track 200%, opening it up the sparse original to drilling lazergun synth hits and shimmering lead lines. Using the Wham! tracks chorus a lot more than the Original mix, both vocoded and not, Nude Disco blends the familiar refrain with some seriously uplifting solos. Pure dancefloor gold.

Todd Terje & Lindstrøm

Lindstrøm

A couple of weeks ago Norwegian Housemeister Todd Terje released a couple of extended edits of Lindstrøm’s recent A-Side Eg-Ged-Osis/Ra-Ako-St. Fellow Norwegian Lindstrøm had already roped Terje in to mix the tracks anyway, so whipping up a couple of Edits seems thing the thing to do. What results is some seriously epic, sweeping, atmospheric Disco.

Eg-Ged-Osis is the more hypnotic dancefloor trance inducer of the two. An undulating, repeating, Acidic groove runs through the track. It takes elements from Balearic and euphoric Trance, but works then in Disco, and strangely Scandinavian, ways. Building and building and building, whipping any dancefloor into a frenzy, Eg-Ged-Osis is relentless in it’s hands-in-the-air groove. Ra-Ako-St is more dramatic and majestic. Rooted in Cosmic Disco the track kicks off with a gritty Italo bassline that soon gives way to more House and Disco oriented tropes and a whole layer of Sci-Fi synths. It’s a space-age voyage through uncharted galaxies, cinematic, but funky as hell. This double A-side might just be the surprise hit of the year in certain dimly lit Disc haunts in the capital.

Bedmo Disco and Awon

Bedmo Disco

The Bedminster Disco collective Bedmo Disco recently released a new split EP with fellow Bristolian Awon, it’s four tracks of full on Boogie. Just in-case someone didn’t notice, the chaps are giving away a free new track, Take A Bow, to draw attention to the B-Funk EP.

Take A Bow is the result of a back and forth collaboration between Bedmo Disco and Awon. In their own words; “Said track was produced by Awon. It was re-edited by Bedmo Disco, then re-produced (after the original files got lost) by Awon. We’ve been playing it on and off in our sets for about six months and it always goes down well.”. It’s a big, undulating, slice of deep funk with a body shaking Disco bassline and some sweet, piercing retro synth work. The B-Funk EP itself hold four tracks of modern Electro Boogie flavoured Disco. The début original tunes from both Awon and Bedmo Disco, all four tracks are supremely confidently produced and the record is loaded with squelchy synth Funk basslines and stabbing nostalgic synths. The highlights have to be Awon’s, Startime, a track rolling in cosmic groove and wicked Disco licks, and Bemo Disco’s own Illusion. Illusion is a nice head-on collision between analog Disco and B-Boy Electro. Keeping it sexy on the dancefloor bit injecting it with just a little Electro-Funk flavour in the leads. Four track well worth your attention.

New music from Cinnamon Chasers

Cinnamon Chasers

What an awesome end to the week! Cinnamon Chasers, easily one of our favourite producers of the last few years, has announced the forthcoming release of his new album. As yet the record’s title hasn’t been revealed, but what has been revealed is one of the tracks from it. Dreams And Machines.

It’s the prefect title for the tune. Dreams And Machine perfectly encapsulates what this song is about, the two elements flowing alongside each other in total harmony. The Dreams side of the equation is covered by lush, otherwordly synths. Warm and swelling, the tonal palette Cinnamon Chasers puts to good use here is one of Sci-Fi landscapes, hazy imaginings and cosmic journeys. The Machines bit comes in to play with the pulsating Disco beat, and cut up, vocoded vocals. It’s a brilliant introduction to CC’s new material, and everything we could have asked for. A body shaking bassline and piercing leads, what more could we want. So stoked for this album, roll on September!

♫ Cinnamon Chasers – Dreams And Machines

You can download Dreams And Machines for the small price of a Tweet, right here.

Cinnamon Chasers’ new album is due out 17th September on Modus.

Good Night Keaton reMixes Gigamesh

gigamesh

Gigamesh’s Kitsuné released All My Life EP is still getting the spins round here, especially the funky as hell Don’t Stop. A confident slice of synthesizer Disco featuring the classic ‘70’s sounding vocals of Jana Nyberg. Here’s comes a bunch of fresh new funk for the tune from Good Night Keaton.

Good Night Keaton is Aaron Shanahan, skin basher for Indie-Dreamwave pioneers Miami Horror, and in his solo effort he lays down some serious groove. He’s making a bit of a name for himself with big tunes combining the best of classic Disco and dreamy Nu-Disco summer vibes. He drops both right here in this analog encrusted slab of mirrorball goodness. Just enjoy, warbling Moogy bass, popping toms and twisting lead lines. Disco bliss.

Hot Hot Hawk’s ‘Rise and Down’

Hot Hot Hawk

Russia’s Hot Hot Hawk is at it again! This time the Nu-Disco/SynthWave producer has brought along a vocalist, and the results are fresh as hell. Enlisting Ksenia Popova to land the track a little female charm, Hot Hot Hawk hits the ground running in this smooth slice of relaxed summer soul.

Popova vocals has a slight Russian twang to them, which no only gives the track an originality in the Nu-Disco pantheon, but also immediately endears the listener to the track. Add to that Hot Hot Hawks’ deep Disco grooves, loaded with stabbing synths , bouncing basslines and shuffling drums, and you have a track fit for the sexiest of beach parties. The combination of pulsating Disco and sharp floating melodies is a masterstroke.
