Plastic Plates reMix All The Lights

Check out Plastic Plates’ new reMix of All The Lights forthcoming single ‘Chasing Colours’.

‘Chasing Colours’ is a huge, euphoric, vocal club tune with echoes of MoS style Pop/Trance but with more of a nod to Indie-Electro and Disco. Overall it’s a pretty quality slice of Balearic ElectroPop. The Plastic Plates reMix, however, is where this really excel. Fresh from their reMix of The Human League’s new single, PP keep the momentum going with the beautiful Disco tinged ElectroPop mix. Upbeat and exciting without ever getting hectic, Plastic Plates have sound a solid groove which works so well and allows for some creative synth flourishes.

Moonbootica’s ‘Battle No. 1’

Moonbootica’s video for their Funkin’ new single ‘Battle No. 1’ is an Old School flashback supreme.

There a bit of everything in there. Wild Style, Breakin’, old Bambaata footage, Rock Steady Crew. It’s uprockin’ and spraycanin’ goodness. The songs pretty tight too, a banger with groove. Could have done without the “whoop”s though.

Fabian’s ‘Last Flight’ EP

fabian

Hold the press, the man Fabian is in the house with a brand new single and had brought a ton of funk with him.

The magic music man behind LexiconDon’s solo output has, in the past, swung between straight up Dreamwave and Electro-House but with ‘Last Flight’ Fabian has got the groove like never before. Smooth summery vocal Nu-Disco guaranteed to get the party started and keep it going. It’s a huge track, pretty anthemic too, that’ll have you reaching for the starts. The EP is backed with reMixes from French Horn Rebellion, NightWaves, Reset!, Justin Faust, Lancelot, Douze and Robots For Rayguns. Justin Faust and fellow Binary crew NightWaves, particularly, bring it home with real emotional slices of retro synth while French Horn Rebellion’s reMix introduces an Disco Funk flavour. Reset! works his slammin’ Electro-House sound into the tune and for something a bit smoother Lancelot lays down an awesome synthesizer Disco vibe. More a more SynthPop sound, check out Robots With Rayguns version. There’s something for everybody of this EP. If I hadn’t already heard the EP I would defiantly be waiting in anticipation to hear it, so you really should be!

♫ Fabian – Last Flight

‘Last Flight’ is released 22nd August on Binary Entertainment with Fabian’s début album in September. Keep it locked to electronic rumors for a review of the album later in the week.

Alpha Boy’s new EP

alphaboy

German producer of 80’s inspired electronic music Alpha Boy is back with a brand new EP, his third. It’s free too!

The ‘Fresh’ EP is four tracks of his particular mix of melodic synthesizer dance, Nu-Disco and ChipTune. The EP kicks off with ‘Chip Child’ and almost oriental arpeggio workout that leads into ‘Falkor’, a sweeping 80’s theme tune of a song. This is RoboPop heaven, deep machine basses underpin soaring cosmic lead lines in a track that is uplifting electro gold. ‘The Fresh Tape’ is more of a slow jam that is followed with ‘Walking On Light’, the EPs finale. ‘Walking On Light’ sends you off on a high combining retro electronics, Disco strings and a baroque feel in a track both banging and emotional.

OhYeah!’s new tune

ohyeah

German producer OhYeah!’s new track, ‘Be Tough,’ is described by himself as “80s flavoured skateboard Italo disco”. Intrigued? I am.

‘Be Tough’ defiantly roughs up the Italo and sends it into overdrive. With a relentless bassline powering the song along, OhYeah! drops layer after layer of samples, vocoding, and thick, thick retro synth sounds. More in-your-face than the Disco track you’d expect from OhYeah! this is the kind of track to drop at peak time and watch the dancefloor explode.

Starsmith: and on to the B-side

Starsmith

The last few days have been Starsmithtastic! New single, new video and now the flip side to ‘Lesson One’, ‘Champion’.

I sat flip side ‘cos the release will be a double A-side. Alan Braxe, who’s Vulture Music will be putting out the single, recently dropped a teaser of this track at Social Club in Paris and the resultant YouTube video has us all in a frenzy. ‘Campion’ sees Starsmith layering up the smooth electronic Funk of ‘Lesson One’ with a more synthesized feel. The lead lines alone are worth buying this release for, behind a couple of tires of synths and a mixing desk Starsmith really is at the top of his game. Keeping the  Hopefully Starsmith finding a home at Vulture will mean his album gets to see the light of day.

Chromeo & Lifelike; together again

chromeo

Lifelike’s reMix of Chromeo’s ‘Needy Girl’ was one of the musical highlights of 2008, now the meeting of minds is happening once more with Lifelike’s new reMix of Chromeo’s forthcoming ‘when The Night Falls’ single.

Featuring Solange of the Knowles clan, ‘When The Night Falls’ will be the last single from Chromeo’s amazing ‘Business Casual’ album. Lifelike add a nice sheen of Frenchness to the track with his trademark digital bass and a solid understanding of the Disco dancefloor. It’s the little touches, stabs and sound effects that really make this reMix a bit rad, keeping things energetic and bombastic.

Chromeo’s ‘When The Night Falls’ single is due to drop 25th July.

Shook reMixes Kimbra

_kimbra

Kimbra’s ‘Cameo Lover’ tend to burrow itself into your brain whenever you hear it. Unfortunately we have now found a reason to start listening to it all over again, but fortunately that reason is a brand new reMix from Shook.

Shook brings the Funk big time, with deep bass and flourishing Moog lines running throughout. Stripping it original of it’s 60’s leanings Shook takes that ‘Puppet On A String’-esque, infections, chorus and re-moulds it into a summertime Disco anthem. Shook has a new EP in the pipeline, keep an eye out for that one.

Neon Workout Vs. Clancy

panther

Here is a mashup by Aduno So Tanie of Neon Workout’s ‘Running In the Night’ and, mostly, Clancy’s ‘Panther’.

I don’t know much about the guy who put this together but it’s pretty slick, still not really sure if it improves at all on the originals, it’s more like an interesting take on ‘Panther’ using bits of ‘Running Through The Night’. It does work though and it’s well put together and if you want something to jam out to this Friday afternoon then this could be it.
