Chilly Gonzales reMixes by Walter Sobcek

Chilly Gonzales’ ‘You Can Dance’ is an amazing tune in it’s own right, but let awesome French ElectroPop producers Walter Sobcek get their hands on it for an official reMix and you’re on to something really special!

WS take the vocal hook and run with it into their own amazing SynthPop land. whereas the original was a cool piano led Disco tune that could get any dancefloor moving, Walter Sobcek’s mix is so awesomely 80’s epic that it would have kids dancing in the streets, on top of cars, postmen and cops too! You know what I’m saying!

French Horn Rebellion’s ‘This Moment’, as reMixed by Jacuzzihidive

”Post our remix of This Moment by our friends French Horn Rebellion! It’s fuckin’ hot!”

That was basically the entire content of the email we received from Jacuzzihidive, an as much as we hate to admit it, they’re right. Their reMix is fuckin’ hot.

French Horn Rebellion’s ‘This Moment’ gets a full on analog Disco workout. Bouncing analog bass and strings give the track a new lease of life by this Las Vegas based ElectroPop trio, throw in some Moroder-esq synths and you’ve got a track that won’t quit.

It’s fuckin’ hot!

Teenage Bad Girl Vs. Kartell

We dropped the new Teenage Bad Girl single on you a couple of weeks ago, well it’s out now and to celebrate Citizen Records are giving away this exclusive reMix of the track by Kartell, not featured on the EP!

Less heavy and noisy as the the original, Kartell takes the groove and the smooth vocoded vocals from the track and invited them down the Disco. Thrown into the mix are the occasional electro tom and hand clap just to remind you of where you are. The original track was an awesome buzzsaw noisy ElectroPop tune, this reMix is a more sophisticated beat altogether.

♫ Teenage Bad Girl – Keep Up With With You (Kartell reMix)

The ‘Keep Up With You’ EP is out this week on Citizen Records.

DMX Krew’s ‘The Game’ EP

EDMX A.K.A the almighty DMX Krew had to rank as one of my all time favourite artists, whether he is rocking his experimental tracks, his B-Boy Electro or his ElectroPop he always drops something pretty special.

His latest EP release, ‘The Game’ is a return to something a little more ElectroPoppy for DMX Krew, with a hint of Moog Disco thrown in for good measure. The title track is the kind of deep analog ElectroPop with the observational, and slight introverted lyrics that made us fall in love with DMX Krew in the first place. The best way to describe EDMX’s Pop tunes is if a quality BedroomPop artists had been brought up spinning on his back on some lino down the subway in the 80’s. With ‘Disco Theme’ he turns his talents to some solid electronic groove for three minutes of arpeggio driven 70’s synth funk. Pure genius, and a welcome return to the popper side of EDMX.
