[Audio] Kosheen DJs’ ‘Take Me’

Released this week is the new EP from Bristol legends Kosheen darker, more dancefloor oriented, wing Kosheen DJs. Three tracks of pounding and unrelenting electronic groove that is highlighted by the EP’s lead track Take Me. Strap in for some bass heavy vibes.

Drawing as much from their Drum & Bass roots as they do hypnotic Deep House, Kosheen DJs Mark and Darren deliver a track that is involving and intoxicating. Rolling on low, pulsating bass grumbles the tune offers up a pallet of House stabs, 70s Spy Thriller notes and echoing vocal snatches that bob and weave around the relentless bass and kick groove like a lifeboat lost at sea. A full-on tune to loose yourself in on the dancefloor.

[Audio] Bit Funk reMixes Nameless’ ‘7 Days In The Sun’

Here’s a new slice of tasty smoothness from New York producer Bit Funk. It’s a reMix of the new single from French rockers Nameless. 7 Days In The Sun is a stuttering Indie-Rock tune that is completely transformed in the hands of Bit Funk into sweeping Robo-Disco dancefloor silk.

Effortlessly cool, Bit Funk’s reMix of 7 Days In The Sun immediately wraps you in a blanket of warm synths and an easy Disco beat. Repurposing the original’s vocals as a modulated mantra, Bit Funk really does bring the sunshine to the song, spacing out groovy electric piano and a bouncy bassline along it;s six minute length. Evocative of hot summer nights and poolside parties, this reMix really hits the chilled, summery sweet spot.

[Audio] Miles Prower’s ‘Who Needs Real Life, Anyway?’

Bristol SynthWavers Miles Prower are back with another new tune. Taken from their forthcoming new EP, titled Virtually Reality, the new track is an Italo infused instrumental that goes by the name of Who Needs Real Life, Anyway? and we’re guessing it’s the euphoric high-point of the release.

Keeping things sparkly and shimmering, Miles Prower deliver three minutes of synthesizer love, awash with bright melodies and starlight keys that drift over a sea of rapid fire arpeggio basslines. Taking it’s time to build up to full steam, Who Needs Real Life, Anyway? eases you into it’s optimistic groove before launching into it’s high-octane SynthWave cavalcade. The EP should be a good ‘un.

[Audio] Monarchy’s ‘Living Without You’

It’s been a while since we had new material from London SynthPop duo Monarchy, over a year (not including their collaboration with MiGHty mOUse), but the boys are back in town with a brand new single. Ushering in a larger, and perhaps more mature, sound is Living Without You.

The inclusion of grinding chainsaw synths might seem out of place for Monarchy at first glace, but by the end of the track the cinematic lift of the track brings it all together in a way that makes sense. Andrew and Ra go full throttle with this one, with both huge, anthemic, vocals and enough sonic power to push this squarely into Big Room territory. Unsurprisingly the new single is released via Ultra Records, purveyors of largely mainstream Dance tracks, whether they can shoehorn Monarchy into the big Progressive House market will remain to be seen, but we’ll enjoy the fruits of the effort.

[Audio] SaiR’s ‘Wonderer’

Portuguese Dreamwave Disco-head SaiR is back with another low-down Funky jam for us. The bizarrely titled Wonderer is his second new tune this year, leading us to wonder if there a new EP in the making. Well wonder no more, the is. Whether or not this track will feature on the EP is not yet known, but it should give you a taste of what to expect.

Funky-as-all-hell is the best way to describe Wonderer. Piling a heavy bassline on thick, this laid back Disco monster weaves it#s way through cheeky guitars and squelchy Moog-esque leads amidst a sea of smooth, retro synths. It;s an absolute head-nodder, and definitely one for lazy summer afternoons. Check it out.

[Video] Florrie’s ‘Wanna’ Control Myself’

The latest track from Bristolian Xenomania skin basher Florrie’s Sirens EP to get the video treatment is the 90s DancePop powerhouse Wanna’ Control Myself.

It’s all 60’s drama with this clip, to match the chugging bass riff, of the track as classic British thriller mood meets Pop hipster style.
