[Audio] Mr. Gonzo & Romuald’s ‘Gon Be A Thrill’

This week French producer Mr. Gonzo, who we haven;t heard from in quite a while, released his new single Gon Be a Thrill. The track is a collaboration with Parisian singer of just about everything Romuald, and the two of the together cook up a slick, laid back Disco experience that is just right to hold on to until the summer months.

Gon Be A Thrill is pure sunshine ecstasy. Deep bass grooves and silky smooth synths life the track with an easy, breezy, feeling. Carefree and relaxed, the track is give an Indie-Electro edge with Romuald’s anthemic vocals. This one is built for slow-motion dancing in the sun.

[MP3] Modern Machines’ ‘Trouble’

NYC’s Modern Machines return from a bout of touring with a storming new track. After a host of massive reMixes for the likes of The Knocks and CREEP the duo are set to deliver some killer original tunes, starting with Trouble.

Bringing to the forefront the Vera Hall sample that Moby rocked on Natural Blues, these guys take a completely different route with the vocals. Dropping them straight into an Electro Disco fire-pit of huge synth stabs, stomping beats and some madcap ChipTune wobbling. Big, uplifting hooks and a grinding bassline keep this track powering onward and destined straight for the big room.

[Audio] Embryonik’s new EP

Out today is the new EP from one of Greece’s finest exports, Electro producer Embryonik. Titled Nightflight the EP is a six track journey through a synthesized, apparent plane crash. A concept piece of work that tells a story, instrumentally, carrying the listener through optimism to tension and then finally the EP’s finale, and lead track, Heaven.

Heaven is a bright slice of Italo with a sinister undercurrent. With a classic Italo bassline and rich synth tones, Embryonik captures both an emotion and a groove in this piece. Although the track is based around an upbeat vibe and loaded with shimmering synth chimes, there is a certain air of melancholy to it. But like all the best 80s tune, and all the best Italo music, it balances the Mirrorball and the sadness perfectly.

♫ Embryonik – Heaven

Heaven is taken from Embryonik’s Nightflight EP, out today on Binalog Productions.

[Audio] Justice reMixes Boys Noize

Even if Boys Noize did turn in a half-hearted, pretty mediocre album last year, he still knows how to pick a reMixer. Following hot on the heels of Chromeo’s stunning reMix of What You Want come this version of the single Ich R U by the second members of the disappointing album last year committee, Justice with a track that redeems them both.

The Justice reMix of Ich R U is a grinding Electro workout that harkens back to Justice’s glory days. majestic and slowly gruelling, Justice’s mix delivers all the stuff we loves about them in the first place. Brooding, dramatic Electro-House that builds to a storming crescendo. Deep pulsating synths, hypnotic little licks, and that piercing, baroque, quality that Justice got so right on †. It’s just a pity this’ll likely be a one-off sound.

♫ Boys Noize – Ich R U (Justice reMix)

Ich R U is released, as Boysnoize Records 100th release, with reMixes from justice and The Chemical Brothers, on 18th March.

[Audio] Grafton Primary return

Well, this is an awesome mid-week surprise, we’d kinda’ given up on Grafton Primary to be honest. but they are, as you will know if you were grooving in 2008, are one of the finest Indie-Disco-ElectroPop acts around. hailing from Sydney, these guys rocked everyone in the years leading up to their 2008 Eon album, then the line when quite.

Now they’ve picked up music’s call and are gearing up for the release of their second album, the reasonably cleverly titled Neo (see what they did there?, I guess album three will be called One then?). The first hint of tune to break ground from the new album is One More Life, their new single. Released yesterday, One More Life is a massive sounding slice of Discoy ElectroPop. More mature that the bands previous work, this is a stronger, slicker Grafton Primary, and one with big enough, anthemic enough, and funky enough, tracks to take over the world.
