Our friends over at Stoney Roads got themselves the killer scoop on this new reMix from Sydney House master Cassian. He’s served up a bouncy-as-hell reMix of the forthcoming new single from Mr. Alex Metric; Heart Weighs A Ton. The track, of course, features the vocal stylings of the one and only Stefan Storm from The Sound Of Arrows, which just means there is so much pedigree, and so much to like, about this track from the offset.
Cassian pulls out the springiest of rubbery basses for this one. Deep and booming yet bouncing all over the track, the bassline fires itself across razor sharp drums with Cassian grabs snatches of Stefan’s uplifting vocal and drops them here and there. Enter the piano hook to tie the track together and elevate it to a place of dancefloor madness. Time to get your head down and keep dancing.

Released this week via Nurvous Records is the new double A-side single from the king of the Sydney scene Cassian. The man has been dropping a succession of badass EP’s recently such as the Love Cuts EP and the 8 Voices EP and now he’s ready to top it all off by teaming up with the New York label for two storming House tracks. Find Out and Could I Do.
Find Out is first up and hits the ground running. layering choppy synths over a skippy Garage beat. Bring in the subs and the droning pads and you’ve got some excitement building. When the track kicks in you;re treated to haunting samples and a nod to Chicago with a hammering piano hook. The whole thing is a tough, relentless floorfiller with nothing but the dancefloor on it’s mind. Could I Do is a slightly smoother affair. Slightly. Rolling on a big, robotic boom of a bassline, the track builds up a frantic, but strangely chilled, groove, before serving up Rave samples and breakbeats that come from nowhere to whip the tune into a frenzy. Two massive crowd pleasers right here!

The king of the Sydney scene, Cassian, is back with a new release. The 8 Voices EP is out this week and we’ve already has a taste of what to expect from it. Our favourite track so far is the gloriously energetic and sun-kissed The Ninth. Pure summer dance grooves.
Leading with a deep and soulful bassline over a solid House beat, The Ninth builds itself in waves of lush synths and atmospheric vocal snatches. Skippy purcussion and as nod to Deep House keep the track dancefloor interesting while your head can be occupied by the onslaught of rich retro synths in the tunes second half. Euphoric as hell.

Released next month is Australian singer Owl Eyes’ Nightmixes EP. As part of the collection fellow Australian and purveyor of all thing Funky and Housey Cassian has taken Owl Eyes’ Hurricane and turned it into a poolside Disco monster. Enjoy,
There’s so much space in this track. It’s just six minutes of laid back, carefree Nu-Disco and classic House with loads of room for it to breathe. Spread out over the six minutes are punchy digital basslines with a Chicago feel, twisted up vocal snatches, slightly Tropical leads, lush pads and an overall adherence to a lazy groove. Cassian never fails to deliver, and this floorfilling reMix is no different. One for hot summer nights.

Sydney producer Cassian has been laying low for a few months, since the summer, but he’s re-entering our consciousness in style with a brand new that that is not only hot as hell, but free too! This one’s perfect for getting you in the mood for a weekend’s partying.

Next month Nürvous Records will be releasing the new double A-side single from Cassian, one of Australia’s funkiest producers. It’s been all about the reMixes and DJ sets for Cassian recently, but by the sounds of the two tracks contained in ‘Love Cuts’ he’s bot been sitting on his production laurels.
Made up of ‘I Love It’ and ‘Reach For Love’, the EP presents two instant classic Disco tinged House tracks. ‘I Love It’ is the track that instantly grabbed us, it’s built around a killer deep bassline. Raw and analog, it’s totally hypnotic and has both a Rough Disco and a Chicago vibe to it, the whole track plays out like the best things about House music with some searing early ‘90’s Bleep House synths in the mix too. The A-side, ‘Reach For Love’ is a really nostalgic slice of House. Bouncy, rounded bassline and soulful vocal in tow. It’s very hands-in-the-air peak time House, and one of the best examples of it we’ve seen in a while.

This huge reMix of, one of my favourite bands, Bag Raiders’ ‘Snake Charmer’ has been a staple of Cassian’s DJ sets for almost a year now, so it’s pretty exciting that he’s just been given the go-ahead to release it to the world.
This mix plays around with the tracks lead riff, then goes crazy with the percussion. It’s a track that strikes me as a big summer festival tune that would go down a storm with 20,000 other people in a muddy field. Maybe this summer we’ll see just such a happening.
