Here is the brand new video from London duo AlunaGeorge, ‘Just A Touch’, which sees the duo spinning even more of an UK R&B sound into their experimental Indie-ElectroPop.
Laurence Matthew Blake & Matilda Finn directed the clip, which is more of a Pop video, for more of a Pop sound. All high contrast blacks and whites.

French ElectroPop duo T&K have been pretty quite since the release of their ‘Magic Tank’ album and it’s accompanying reMix EP on On The Fruit Records last year. So it was a surprise to see them dropping a brand new track on their SoundCloud. A nice surprise though.
‘Music Never Lies’ is a quiet little tune that is very much on T&Ks’s style. With a sound akin to Freezepop, but with more floaty vocals. A quaint, SynthPop tune who’s sound comes from Britain via Paris. Gently buzzy synths and vintage drums roll along with toytown electric piano riffs and despite it;s roots in late ‘80’s SynthPop, there a definite ‘70’s vibe to the track. Slightly more introspective than T&K album work, maybe they were just in a pensive mood?

The world of the producer is very much like the cruellest corners of the animal kingdom. Producers stalk the plains, solitary and silent, hunting for stems. Occasionally stopping to sniff the air in the hope of catching the scent of an acapella vocal. A producer must work with stems at least once every two weeks to survive, in times of drought competition can be fierce, and when a new herd of stems is noticed many producers can fall upon it in a feeding frenzy. Actually, in the case of Touch Tone’s Home Away From Home’ we can see why, the vocal is spectacularly epic, it must be hard for a producer to resist the temptation.
On The Fruit Records main man Freak You, just couldn’t resist. And for that we are glad. He turns in this wonderful, lush, ‘90’s House mix complete with 909 drums, piano hook and and a piercing square wave lead that just screams ‘90’s Dance Pop. More than anything Freak You’s reMix is fun fun fun and conjures up the best of times dancing your ass off in the ‘90’s. Freak You;’s reMix will keep a smile on my face all day!

Here it is! The first new track from Pet Shop Boys highly anticipated forthcoming new album, ‘Elysium’.
Put together by Brian Bress, Pet Shop Boys and Andrew Dawson, they call it a short film for the track. How that differes from amusic video I have no idea, but they are Pet SHop BOys, I’ll take their word for it. The track is blissful, haunting and pure PSB. Excited.
‘Elysium’ is due for release this summer.

Out this week is the new single from French SynthWave/Nu-Disco producer DiscoRazor, Golden Night’. Alongside reMixes from Judgement Dernier and Paul! you’ll find this tasty mix from the one and only Lueur Verte.
Lueur Verte brings his typical style of powerful, driven SynthWave to the track with a track worthy of soundtracking the most climactic of action sequences in the best of ‘80’s cinema. With a sense of urgency the track rolls forward, carried along by a punchy Italo bassline and some starlight synths. There’s a nice bit of digital guitar in there too to give the track some oomph, but ultimately the track wins out through Lueur Verte vintage sound and his attention to melody. The Frenchman keeps getting better and better.

Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia:
A-Ha with ‘The Living Daylights’ from 1987. Oh no, there’s no theme here…
From 10985, Duran Duran’s ‘A View To A Kill’. OK, maybe there is a theme going on…
In 1981, just coming out of the ‘70’s, Sheena Easton with ‘For Your Eyes Only’. Yeah, can;t really get away from the theme now.

In their latest release, Californian ElectroPoppers Capital Cities step up for reMix duties for Frenchman Ernest Saint Laurent and his Tatiana Heintz featuring track ‘Offering’. The result is some blissed out sunrise Pop.
Carried along on the vocals of Tatiana Heintz from Franco-German Folk duo Okou who creates an uplifting, deep mood that allows Capital Cities to get a little Ballieric as they mix things up. Throwing a bit of that beach vibe into the mix they churn up a deep, warm Housey, ElectroPop track that envelopes you like a comfortable blanket. Full of rich synth pads and a Funk fuelled arpeggiated bassline, Capital Cities capture the mood perfectly.

OK, this track has been kicking around in out Inbox for the better part of a month now, we’ve been um’ing and ah’ing about whether to post it or not, but in trying to make the decision we’ve listened to it so much that we’re pretty hooked on it now. So we’re posting it. It’s like a self-fulfilling prophesy, the mere act of considering posting it results in a post. That, and the tracks is bizarrely badass.
So here’s Brodinski’s third release on his new Bromance imprint. The single is actually a double A-Side with Club Cheval’s ‘Now U Realise’, a proper dark Rave track on one side and Brodinski’s own ‘Nobody Rules The Streets’ on the other. ‘Streets’ features, again, Louisahhh!!! on vocals and, for a moody, gritty, Rave tune is surprisingly Poppy. Catchy and rabble rousing, in that way early ‘90’s Indie sometimes was, complete with police sirens, ‘Nobody Rules The Streets’, has got a bit of a Simian Mobile Disco circa ADSR vibe to it, which I think is why we like it so much.
