Here’s another new video from Binary cohorts SolarSolar.
‘This time it’s ‘Pilot’ album track ‘Monsters’ that gets the visual treatment. Directed and animated by Robert Waldeck there’s always something interesting to look at in this clip. And it;s relaxing, like the tune, too.
‘Pilot’ is out now,

OK, so I’m really not a fan of Steve Aoki, I find his music mostly pretty tedious. Derivative and simplistic I have no idea how he got famous, it seems generally from ‘knowing people’ rather than ‘being good at music or DJing’. However, I flippin’ love Lovefoxx and thankfully Mr Aoki hasn’t made something completely terrible in ‘Heartbreaker’, their collaboration.
It’s a surprisingly good, pretty funky, Electro Disco tune that’s actually catchy as hell which I’m loving more each time I listen to it. It comes with an ace video too! You’ve earned yourself a temporary reprieve Mr. Aoki, but we’re watching you.
‘Heartbreaker’ is taken from Steve Aoki’s album, ‘Wonderland’, out now.

The biggest tragedy we’ve had to report on here on electronic rumors was the premature passing away of Où Est Le Swimming Pool singer Charlie Haddon, it was a shocking time for ElectroPop fans and I imagine a tough time for his bandmates.
Où Est keyboard player Alex is gaining a bit of attention with his new project, The Ghosts, who are just about to release their second single, ‘Ghosts’. A wonderfully catchy slice of Indie-Electro that shares some obvious Où Est DNA but carves out a sound of it’s own. With it’s heavy synths played against some distant gangly Indie guitar it strikes exactly the right balance for success. Check out the Alex Kyrou directed video which is nicely spooky and tongue in cheek.
‘Ghosts’ is released 8th April on Pocket Records with The Ghosts’ début album released the following week.

Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia:
This week on Goin’ Old School we’re going back to one of my first love B-Boy Electro, Electro Funk, Electro Boogie or whatever you want to call it. The Problem is most of the classic cuts from back them don’t have videos, but luckily we can kick off with the quintessential Electro jam, Afrika Bambaataa & Soul Sonic Force’s ‘Planet Rock’ from 1982
We love some Mantronix round these parts, I think ‘Bassline’ from 1986 is the only classic Mantronix video we haven’t featured yet.
It’s a pity there aren’t more old Egyptian Lover videos. 1986’s Electro Funk fueled ‘Freak-A-Holic’ seems to be the only video he made back then

Here’s another new track from Chromatics’ forthcoming second album, ‘Kill For Love’, titled ‘Candy’.
Who know’s when the album will finally be release, but Chromatic have vowed to keep releasing video teasers of the album, track by track. ‘Candy’ was again shot by Alberto Rossini and is a deep and beautiful electronic lament.
‘Lady’ is taken from Chromatics’ forthcoming second Italians Do It Better album, ‘Kill For Love’.

We haven’t heard from Australian ElectroPopsters Radio INK since last years ‘Rocket’ single, but they’re back with a brand new track, the first off of their forthcoming début album, and a shiny new video.
‘Who We Are Tonight’ is the kind of massive electronic Pop that we’ve come to expect from this Antepodean troupe with a massive chorus. Not too sure what’s going on in the Jefferton James directed video, but it looks nice.
Radio INK are going on tour in Oz with Aqua of all people! Details on their website.

Sometimes I get the feeling people don’t really know what to do with an artist like Little Jinder.
Take her forthcoming single, the big bass and little voiced ‘Keep On Dreaming’, I wouldn’t be trying to sell this to the UK Funky or Dubstep crowd, I’d shop this to the eclectic Indie-Electro listeners. It’s a really good track that might not get the recognition it deserves if it’s stuck in a pigeon hole.
‘Keep On Dreaming’ is out 13th March on Trouble & Bass.
