Empire Of The Sun Vs. The Golden Filter

EmpiteOfTheSun3

Empire Of The Sun are often reMixed, some good, some mediocre. When you have a name like The Golden Filter who have repeatedly dropped top quality Disco gems you know you’re in for one of the good ones.

The Golden Filter bring a little of their ‘Sold Gold’ magic to the table. Their dreamy Electro Disco seems a perfect fit with Empire Of The Sun’s track.

TMDP

TMDP are coming straight outta’ Toronto with some superbly crafted Nu-Disco that is seriously easy on the ears.

Jeffrey Addison and Gavin Rough have been at this for around ten years, and it shows. These are two guys who have honed their studio skills. Have a listen to these two tracks off their début, self titled, album and you’ll get warm basses, soaring leads, and smooth guitar riffs that will infect your brain for days.

Both these tunes have a real evolving quality, both are Disco journeys:

TMPD recently released the ‘TMDP’ album on YYZ Records.

The week in Bangers: 29:03:09

The week in Bangers: While electronic rumors isn’t strictly an Electro-House blog, we do cover a lot of Electro-House that crosses over in to our realm. So many good club tunes and reMixes surface each week we can’t (and wouldn’t) cover them all, so this is a round up of some of the best from the week that we didn’t have time to dedicate individual posts to…

DinoRoboGrafffiti

It’s a week or so old now but the Acid Girls remix of Mini Viva’s ‘I Left My heart In Tokyo’ is still doin’ it, as is FC Kahuna’s work on Noah And The Whale. Youth’s reMix of Elke’s ‘Blue Dream Lover’ is a smooth dancefloor groover in contrast to Esser & A1 Bassline’s noisy Electro/Dubstep flavoured jam. Moving into a more ElectroPop arena is Cinemax with ‘Smudged’, as reMixed be Melee Beats. Bringing things crashing back to the dancefloor is Bit Funk’s take on vitaminsforyou and this weeks big hype magnet, Warp 1.9 by The Bloody Beetroots teaming up with Steve Aoki to seriously rock the place. Finally Curtis Vodka gets made over, by electronic rumors favourites DMX Krew, into a 1988 Acid House trip.

The Twelves take on A-Ha

A-Ha

As part of a recent Norwegian promotion by Chrysler a few artists reMixed A-ha’s absolute classic ‘Take On Me’, including Brazil’s Nu-Disco demons The Twelves.

The Twelves have previously worked their reMix magic on the likes of New Young Pony Club, Groove Armada, Black Kids and, recently, La Roux.

This reMix keeps the pop structure of the original but injects it with some Electro, Disco magic.

A-Ha have announced a new album in September ‘09 and a return to the SynthPop Sound!

Frankmusik gets the funk

Frankmusik3

This tune hit the electronic rumors Inbox a few days ago buy I’ve only just got ‘round to listening to it.

Here we have Frankmusik’s latest single ‘Better Off as Two’ as reMixed by producer UtTeRs when he heaps on the 80’s synthesized funk. It’s got a Five Star thing goin’ on, pretty cheesy, but clocking in at just under three minutes it’s pretty fun also.

Get it on!

♫ Frankmusik – Better Off As Two (The Better Off With Uttermix) (zShare) (MediaFire)

Still waiting to hear the vocal version of the Fan Death reMix, though!

‘Better Off As Two’ is out April 2nd.

G.L.O.V.E.S. ‘Changes’ Van She

VanShe

Over on the ModBlog, those nice people at Modular Recordings have been in a generous mood and given away the reMix of ‘Changes’ by Aussie Indie-Electro stars Van She that they had G.L.O.V.E.S. (one half of Damn Arms) do.

♫ Van She – Changes (G.L.O.V.E.S. reMix) (zShare) (MediaFIre)

The reMix has been knocking around since late last year but it’s worth posting anyway, it’s a Disco funker with some great synth noodling, as is this old gem, one of my favourite Van She tracks mixed by one of my favourite reMixers, Lifelike:

♫ Van She – Kelly (Lifelike reMix) (zShare) (MediaFIre)

There’s four of them, they gotta’ eat, y’know! Buy stuff:

Burns: Fire In The Disko

burns1

‘Huge’ is the best way to describe ‘Disko’, the début single from London producer Burns.

Not without reason did Annie Mac name him as ‘one to watch in 2009’, Burns music is obviously influenced by Ed Banger Records and French House but pulls it in a UK party direction. ‘Disko’ is a Disco killer!

♫ Burns – Disko (Extended Version) (zShare) (MediaFire)

‘Disko’ is out soon on Breastfed. Until then check out the reMixes Burns has done for Empire Of The Sun and Late Of The Pier. The man has a knack for basslines!
