The Sanfernando Sound reMixes R3set

r3set

The Sanfernando Sound’s latest reMix is his entry into R3set’s ‘Runaway’ reMix competition, and it set’s the bar pretty damn high.

TSS bases his mix around an driving Italo, almost New Beat, bassline, which gives the floatier, more retro Poppy elements, room to weave in and out of each other creating textures and melodies. This reMix’s combination of ‘80’s elements gives the vocals a new, The Thompson Twins-esque, lease-of-life which makes this version of the track stand out from the others. There’s some lovely solo work in there too. It feels like we’ve been watching The Sanfernando Sound grow and mature as an artist over the past year, both in terms of production and musical ability. I’d say he was ready for his final exam.

Binalog Frequency’s new single

binalog

I make no secret of my overpowering love for early ‘80’s B-Boy Electro, so Binalog Frequency’s new single ‘Street Science (Drop Some DMX)’, is a song after my own heart.

Give me DMX beats, robot basslines and orchestral stabs and I’m happy, luckily ‘Street Science’ rocks all this and more. Add in some Sci-Fi synth effects and an ‘80’s melody and you’ve got a tune that takes me back to days of hurting myself on a sheet of lino down the underpass. Better days…

♫ Binalog Frequency – Street Science (Drop Some DMX)

“Street Science (Drop Some DMX)” is out now on Bandcamp, with the official release coming date 23rd January.

MiGHty mOUse take on Kate Bush’s ‘Cloudbusting’

kate bush

you’d have though by now if you’d heard one version of Kate Bush often reMixes ‘Cloudbusting’, you’d have heard them all. Well, thankfully along comes MiGHty mOUse to do something fresh and give the track a new lease of life.

Dropping a slow building slice of Moroder Disco with little hint’s of Dub was the prefect choice for this track and takes it to an ‘80’s lit dancefloor place it hasn’t been before. The percussion in the reMix is worth mentioning too, with a beautiful melodic quality to it, and the melodies have a percussive quality too which makes for some nice interaction. All-in-all though, if you’re looking for a version of this tune to drop, this is the one. Dancefloor destroying, I believe they call it.

♫ Kate Bush – Cloudbusting (MiGHty mOUse Re Work)

The third instalment of MiGHty mOUse’s ‘Disco Circus’ series will be released 10th March featuring the likes of The Magician,Gigamesh and Oliver.

Work Drugs reMixed by Selebrities & Southern Shores

Basic RGB

Cascine, doing it again! This time they present Work Drugs’ Ice Warf’ a song that joins the growing list of songs in the last three years written about places I used to live just around the corner from, in this case the Ice Warf in Camden. Not sure why you’d want to write a song about a Wetherspoon’s, but the track is generally about getting drunk in Camden and mentions a few other places anyway. No Dublin Castle though?

Anyhoo, Cascine have got two of their finest acts on reMix duties. Kicking off with Selebrities who’s lush ‘80’s Pop version is the stand out for me. Their dreamy synths and raw beats capture my interpretation of the song perfectly. Southern Shores go in a slightly more Balearic direction with an ‘90’s House meets Chillwave sound.

Labyrinth Ear’s new video

Labyrinth Ear’s Italo basslined deep SynthPop track ‘Humble Bones’ is now a visual treat too.

Minimal, but hypnotic, the video directed by Brendan Canty of Feel Good Lost is simple but very effective.

‘Humble Bones’ is taken from Labyrinth Ear’s forthcoming EP “Apparitions”, released on 7th February.

Meridian reMix Dirty South & Thomas Gold

Dirty South & Thomas Gold

Meridian is back with a new reMix of Dirty South & Thomas Gold (Feat. Kate Elsworth)’s ‘Alive’.

The 22 year old Belgian producer turns in a massive big room mix of the track led by lush pads and piano that sits just right in the mix. With an undercurrent Balearic flowing beneath the big Disco sound the track takes on a peak time summer vibe. No doubt this bodes well for Meridian’s forthcoming single release.

♫ Dirty South & Thomas Gold (Feat. Kate Elsworth) – Alive (Meridian reMix)

Meridian’s new single ‘Mallorca’/’Breakdown’,is out 6th February on Paranoiak, Dirty South & Thomas Gold’s ‘Alive’ is out now.

Kids On Bridges’ ‘Check Your Head’

kids on bridges

February sees the release of, North West of England based, Kids On Bridges’ new double A-side single ‘This Is Widescreen’/’Check Your Head’.

The first track ‘This Is Widescreen’, is a little bland and uninspired. The flip side, however, ‘Check Your Head’ is awesome! A bombastic chunk of filtered DiscoPop that draws from everything from Indie-Electro to French Touch and really works those Disco strings to their fullest effect. Part Electro-Rock part Nu-Disco, it’s a heady combination that also has a raw, live, anthemic quality to it. Hopefully the guys will push themselves with this side of the single.
