[MP3] DiscoSocks’ ‘1000% Horse’

It’s meat you can eat with no fear of surprises. London’s DiscoSocks is proudly proclaiming his latest creation to be 1000% Horse. Which means no beef whatsoever, just pure, tasty, thoroughbred Disco and crazy amounts of DiscoSocks insane slap bass skills.

1000% Horse is the prefect platform for showing off DiscoSocks bass talents, his grimy, funky as hell playing is the heart and soul of this tune. A mid-pace jam that would churn up even the most lifeless of dancefloors. A solid, cowbell infused, groove full of pop, wicked little licks and vocal snatches, gives the track a laid pack party vibe, but really, it’s all about the infectious bass. There’s even a bass solo, which is odd as I thought the whole track was a bass solo!

[Audio] MiGHty mOUse’s ‘Love Is Gonna Lift You Up’ reMixes

We heard the Sunrise Mix of London Disco juggernaut MiGHty mOUse’s new single Love Is Gonna Lift You Up, last week. Now with the release imminent we get to have a sneaky preview of the remaining version of the track. The mOUse’s ode to Bobby Womack’s Love Is Gonna Lift You Up, from his recent The Bravest Man In The Universe album, the reMixes add a new vocal and take the song is groovy new directions.

Whereas the Sunrise Mix is shiny, shuffling Disco with bright House overtones, the Sunset Mix takes a deeper, funkier synth Disco approach. Dare we say it, a more MiGHty mOUse approach? The moody, but infectious, burbling bassline that rolls through the track is this mix’s heart. Sounding a little Acidic at times, the bassline has the prefect amount balance Funk and Cosmic for some Sci-Fi Disco, letting the tracks optimistic percussion, swelling strings and the vocal flow, over it like water. Add in a somewhat Tropical breakdown and you’re looking at the releases highlight. If you’re not so keen on the vocal, there’s a dub version of this galactic oddessy too. Deep Cosmic Disco not deep enough for you? The Church Mix delivers a Spartan Deep House vibe mixed with a swinging Disco beat and a big organ riff that landed the reMixing it’s name. The Church Mix may have just invented Sci-Fi-Gospel Disco-House with it’s Southern US mood and Chicago groove. All-in-all, a stunning new single from MiGHty mOUse, but we expected no less.

♫ MiGHty mOUse – Love Is Gonna Lift You Up (Sunset Mix)

[MP3] Lovegang Presents Kathy Diamond

The mighty Lovegang out of Hamburg have lined up a sweet new single from Kathy Diamond. Kathy, also the voice of The KDMs, sounds amazing as ever on this new track, Let There Be Love. Originally written for Lovegang Eau De Parfum, which is the smell the Lovegang dance collective smells like, I guess the tune serves up classic House sounds and a euphoric vocal.

The EP comes equipped with numerous versions, there Day and Night flipsides of the original, providing a Discoy ElectroPoppy and Deep Chicago House versions respectively. Spanish producer Simøne’s take on the tune channels early 80s SynthPop with a toytown Disco twist and rounding out the package is French House artist Heko. Heko’s remix walks the line between groove Acid and retro Disco House. Working nostalgic synth stabs against burbling Acid lines is a unique combination, but one that works really well, providing a nice backdrop of snatches of Diamond’s vocals. An awesome package that comes pretty highly recommended.

[Audio] Billie Ray Martin covers Cabaret Voltaire

Back in January 2010 we wrote about Billie Ray Martin’s Cabaret Voltaire cover versions, which was pretty exciting for us as we’re big Billie Ray fans, and The Cabs are one of our favourite acts of all time, and have been for as long as we can remember. Now the whole collection of reMixes of Billie’s versions of Crackdown and Just Fascination, two of our very favourite Cabs songs, are being released under the title The Crackdown Project. Out next month on digital and deluxe double CD digipack, The Crackdown Project: Volumes 1 & 2 ropes in a whole heap of top electronic talent for an amazing tribute.

Crackdown itself sees Billie Ray teaming up with Berlin Tech-House duo Märtini Brös and none other than the voice of Cabaret Voltaire, Stephen Mallinder. Deep synth Disco with powerful vocals is the result. Billie’s smokey vocals pierce through deep, robotic, soundtrack as if curling out from the corner of a dimly lit Berlin nightclub. Pairing Ms. Martin’s soulful voice with Mallinder’s instantly recognisable hushed drawl is a genius move. The two styles are amazingly complimentary and seem to weave in and out of the pulsating electronic backing. Just Fascination turns up the groove a little. Nang recording artist Lusty Zanzibar contributes to their track resulting in a little 80s Boogie working it’s way into the tune. The more dancefloor oriented of the two, Just Fascination is a stomping synth march that allows Bille Ray to really let loose with her massive vocal. reMixes in the package are supplied by, amongst others, Oicho, Celebrity Murder Party, Copycat, Divide and Create, Dunproofin, Flying White Dots, Phil RetroSpector and Year Zero. That’s quite a line up, and an awesome release.

[Audio] Zimmer and Xinobi reMix Kamp!

We’ve been looking forward to the single release of Polish ElectroPoppers Kamp!’s Melt for a while now, eager to hear the reMixes. Discotexas dropped the package at the end of last week and the release, with reworks from Zimmer, Xinobi and Midnight Magic, has lived up to our expectations.

The original of Melt is a deep slice of retro Pop, laden with waves of dreamy synths and infectious piano, which Parisian producer Zimmer builds on with style. Grabbing the Houser elements with both hands, Zimmer folds in a little of his own brand of Tropical Disco, which he called Horizontal Disco, to create a blissful laid back track, full of popping percussion and a pool party groove. Xinobi’s mix take the track in more of a House direction, providing a deep vibe, bass heavy and playing with that piano hook. There’s a gorgeous breakdown and build in this one too. The single has a mix for every occasion, if those occasions involve good times.
