Lebatman latest track is a Sci-Fi, Electro Disco slice of brilliance that is over far to quickly.
Deep, moody and atmospheric as a Sci-Fi animé cityscape yet with an added layer if funk aimed squarely at the dancefloor Lebatman brings in just over two minutes of edgy cyber-Disco brilliance.

PNAU and Ladyhawke’s ‘Embrace’ was a true anthem for 2008, there were hands in the air at every Electro club you visited, and just as it might have started to sound dated along comes German superproducer digitalfoxglove to bring it kicking and screaming in to 2011.
DFG just seems to have this amazing way with percussion and lead lines that seems to make his tracks soar. Listening to his Nu-Disco magic coupled with Pip’s vocals makes me think how much I’d love to hear him working with vocals more. digitalfoxglove has taken a euphoric ElectroPop anthem and turned it into a sexy dancefloor groover.

Edwin Van Cleef doesn’t release nearly enough music, it seems like years since his last EP, although maybe he takes his time to make things perfect, ‘cos his new EP, ‘Never Be Alone At Night’ completely nails it.
Hitting up Tom Gavin from Chicago’s awesome Gemini Club for vocals is an inspired move the title track is amazingly slick vocal Nu-Disco track that’s backed up by two more original tracks, ‘Triton’ a Tropical-Sci-Fi-Acid-Disco jam and the retro night drive that is ‘I Feel You’. the reMix talent that contributes to the EP is nothing to be scoffed at either. Blue Satellite deliver a beautiful mid-tempo chilled take on the title tune with loads of synthesizer soul with Ugly Kids bring us the straight-up good time Disco version that injects the EP with some added Funk. Pharao Black Magic take on ‘Triton’ and create a head on collision between Moog Funk and the track Acid roots.
All in all this EP is highly recommended.

The two Olivers of Oliver give Sneaky Sound System’s new single ‘Big’ a Nu-Disco workout worthy of the tracks name. it’s big. Massive synth chords, a huge Electro-House riff and gargantuan drums. Yup, it’s all got a bit…er…bigger.

Right, a lot of backlog today to get through but there’s no way we can kick off without taking a moment to express our condolences to the friends and family of Mehdi Favéris-Essadi, better known as DJ Mehdi who tragically died yesterday at his home in Paris.
The man helped shape that Ed Banger sound we all love and invigorated any track he touched with an ear for the dancefloor and a twisted mind for sample abusing. His beats will be missed.
Strangely this past Saturday he was playing at Bestival alongside Riton as Carte Blanche for Annie Mac, who dropped ‘The Molecules’ as a download. Carte Blanche rocked that Big Top!

As Fear Of Tigers’ ‘The Adventures Of Pippi Longstrump’ reMix competition draws to a close here is our sixth and final round up of some of the better entries we have missed so far.
Four entries today. First up Portugal’s Cut Slack sets the bar pretty high with a storming Nu-Disco mix that swaps the euphoric riff for some smooth licks. Follow Me’s galactic rock jam is a power drum workout with a growling bassline that only occasionally gives way to some sweet Disco. Collins does a pretty good job of updating the original with an ear for ‘80’s synthesizer melody with epic and uplifting production while Cuica submit a laid back, Flute infused, beach Disco take on the track.

Yesterday saw the release of long time electronic rumors favourite Fabian’s début full length album hot of the back of the highly acclaimed ‘last Flight’ single and a storming reMix for The Magician’s new Kitsuné record.
The album, ‘Say Goodbye’ feels like a culmination of everything Fabian has learn in the past few years of solo productions, DJing, and as half of the founders of LexiconDon, during the emergence of Dreamwave and the LA ElectroPop scene. Alongside classic Fabian tunes like ‘Heatwave’, one of the tracks Dreamwave was built on and the latest single ‘Last Flight’ which has everyone in the know going crazy, ‘Say Goodbye’ hold a whole host of killer tunes that span Fabian’s range. From smooth ElectroPop to dancefloor shaking Electro to Funked up Disco tunes. The album is liberally sprinkled with shimmering synths, vocoders, and just about everything you want from and electronic album, there’s a track for every mood. Most of the time, though, your mood after slapping on this album will be ‘get up and dance’.

Better late than never Daze turns up to the ‘Hot Mess’ reMix party with his take on the Chromeo tune.
As well as bringing a bottle Daze comes loaded with thick 70’s synths and squelchy basslines. It’s pretty hard to stand out from the pack in the game that is reMixing ‘Hot Mess’ but Daze does his job by producing a Disco tune that is that tiny bit more retro than everyone else. This is a late night jam.
