Lenno reMixes The Knocks & Fred Falke

the-knocks-fred-falke1

Finnish producer Lenno is definitely one of our favourite producers working right now. His big room Nu-Disco sound, from a club point of view, is absolutely killer. When we heard he would be reMixing The Knocks & Fred Falke’s Geronimo, easily one of the tracks of the year, we were more than interested, and the track lived up to our expectation, being our favourite of the reMixes.

It’s up on Lenno’s SoundCloud now, so if you’re somehow one of the few stragglers who haven’t picked up the single at Beatport, this’ll convince you. Lenno brings his big sound to an already massive tune and the result is dancefloor genius. I hate comparing Lenno to Madeon, but if Madeon is fucking off to join his new Brostep friends, then Lenno is the man who’s name should be on your lips. No-one drops huge, complex Disco House like Lenno. I can’t wait to play this track out, a slice of funky euphoria.

Geronimo is out now on Beatport and available everywhere else on 23rd July.

Shiny Toy Guns’ ‘Waiting Alone’ video

There lot’s of running, specifically from Carah Faye, a bit of waiting and some angry. Oh, and a Shyamalan twist at the end. The clip was directed by Luke Ebrel & Edgar Morias.

Voyager’s new single

voyager

Voyager are one of the best outfits to come out of the recent explosion of Russian Electro. This new single, released on Kiez Beat in August is a track we heard a few months ago and have been eagerly awaiting the release since.

Edge Of The Universe is deep , cosmic ElectroPop. A track that looks to the stars with it’s mood and works a little house piano and a sweeping SynthWave tone to it’s Electro sound. the track actually has much in common with space age FuturePop such as Code 64, but with more of a musical slant, as evidenced by the soaring solos, and more of a dancefloor friendly groove. The reMixes are actually a little disappointing,  the standouts both coming from fellow Russians The Frost and Folano, who rock ChipTune Disco and Italo sounds respectively. It’s a cool single though, the attention to detail in Edge Of The Universe is impressive, with little musical flourishes and atmospheres that interlock with the track. Cosmic ElectroPop? A new thing? We hope so.

New tune from Bon Accord

bonaccord1

Bon Accord, London based producer  Michael Wright, featured on electronic rumors last year with his instrumental DreamPop EP True Delusion. He’s been a bit quiet since but this week stopped by the ol’ inbox to drop of his latest creation, more blissful electronics in the form of Pleasure.

It’s a track that lives up to it’s name, bouncy and diverting but with a warm mood of fantasy. Still working with a sound that lives at the intersection of BedroomPop and Chillwave, Bon Accord adds a slight Disco groove to his rich pallet of vintage synth sounds, letting his sparking melodies and buzzing pads fill our minds while the rhythm section moves our feet.

Goldroom ‘Fifteen’ video

Goldroom’s summer anthem Fifteen now has a nice visual element in the form of this new official video.

Directed by Jacob Gibson, the video is very Goldroom, in the sense that it’s very Dreamwave, almost a spiritual successor to Josh’s NightWaves Sweet Carrie video, slightly more grown up, slightly more adventures, no less full of wonder.

Goldroom’s EP is out now.

F3’s new single

F3

Silhouette Music are fast becoming one of the Dreamwave/Nu-Disco labels to watch. All of their recent released have been right on the money. Not only that but they have been giving support to some top up and coming artists. In the case of their next single it’s relative newcomer F3, two producers from Tel Aviv, Israel, who gets the labels support.

The single, Congo Bongo, is (despite the title) a slick, and pretty complex, Nu-Disco tune with enough Electro Boogie overtones to give it that slight edge. There’s  a really nice way the stomping, percussion fuelled, rhythm plays against the floaty vocal samples, the hard and soft of the track adding to the comfortable party groove. There’s a bunch of reMixes on the single, covering a few different styles, but we have to give a shout out to our boy Silenx, who completely flips the script on the track, morphing it into a deep, atmospheric Synthwave instrumental peice. A majestic dark future soundtrack which slowly builds to a melodic and optimistic finale, both to the track and the single as a whole. Every single or EP should end like that.

Shook’s new tune

Shook

Here’s the new one from Dutch musical Disco master Shook. Hot on the heels of his recent, Ronika featuring, Distorted Love/Love For You double A-side single comes this new tune, Garota ’92. These days Shook has been purveying a more laid back sound and this track carried on in that direction.

Garota ’92 is loaded with Shook’s trademark funk bass and synth slides and with this new tune he fold a little Tropical vibe into his sound. Bringing the beach Disco with this one Shook transports us to warmer climes and good times. Working the vibe with big retro synths and a slight steel drum feel into the mix, this track is like the cocktails it conjures the mood of. Ain’t nothing wrong goin’ on round here.

MiGHty mOUse reMixes Hervé & Ronika

Ronika

Hervé & Ronika’s old school Rave anthem How Can I Live Without You? (Make It Right) was finally released yesterday, revealing the most eagerly awaited (as far as we were concerned) of the reMixes. From the moment we heard both the original, and that London’s Disco don MiGHty mOUse was contributing a reMix, for us, that was the one to hear.

And it lives up to expectations, easily positioning itself as the standout of the package. Driven by a deep galactic funk, MiGHty mOUse takes us, and Ronika, out beyond the solar system with some of the most cosmic Disco you’ll hear in a while. A booming robo bassline is perfectly complimented by electro toms popping and pewing like laser fire off the starboard bow. This is the kind of jam they danced to in late 70’s Sci-Fi shows, when the did dance, especially in Buck Rodgers. Like the musical equivalent of a shiny silver jumpsuit, one worn by Madonna Of The Midlands™ Ronika. Which, thinking about it, she’d probably love. Addictive space funk, get involved.
