Kid Machine

kidmachine

Here’s the new track from Mancunian producer of all things retro synth Kid Machine.

It’s called ‘’85’, fittingly as this track could have been rocking Top Of The Pop’s in the mid 80’s, all smoke machine and green flashing lights. Taking elements from Italo and SynthPop Kid Machine has created a track that sounds genuinely authentic, right down to the production style. From the post-Kraftwerk Italo beats to the Belgian New Beat-esque lead line ‘’85’ is a slice of nostalgia that also manages to be fresh as hell.

Louis La Roché takes on Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters

Nu-Disco wunderkind Louis La Roché’s latest reMix is a surprising one. surprisingly awesome! He’s taken Foo Fighters’ ‘Everlong’ and make the Rock smooth!

At fist you wonder whether the growling vocals work in a slick Disco setting, but the end up really doing just that. All credit to Louis, his track is brilliantly crafted around the vocals, created to work with them. Which leaves Dave Grohl’s guttural hollering sliding atop the Electro Disco like and angry, but incredibly funky, track that’s always meant to be there.

New Mille track!

There’s a new Mille track in town! There’s been more output for the Swedish producer recently and that makes me excited for a forthcoming release, and album would be awesome.

‘Crysteena’ immediately cemented Mille as one of my favourite artists of all time, just that one track, so any new output is eagerly awaited round these parts. ‘Roadwraith’ is a dark horror movie of a track that never fails to be bouncy and uplifting in that Mille soaring synth way. A contradiction? Not really, in that moody way that worked so well for Kavinsky on ‘Nightcall’ , Mille works in an 80’s horror kitsch atmosphere into a storming dance track. Growling vocals and ominous chords working in harmony with head nodding bass and cosmic lead lines.

More please!

Mz Longstrump’s mortal kombat continues, enter: Silenx

galaxyl

The battle to see who will reign supreme in Fear Of Tigers’ ‘The Adventures’ Of Pippi Longstrump’ reMix competition continues. Silenx bravely enters the arena early with his take on the tune.

Silenx is defiantly a contender with his laid back SynthWave version. The bright 80’s keys that dominate Silenx’s reMix keep it feel good and nostalgic, true to the emotion of the original. With Silenx unique night drive twist, of course. This competition is going to produce some fantastic results, and it;s gonna’ be very hard to win, Silenex, and digitalfoxglove two days ago, have set the bar so high. The biggest winner here will be us, as fans of electronic music.

If you’ve read this post before, don’t panic, you’re not stuck in a time loop. For some reason the original post disappeared. From the site, from Feedburner and from Window Live Writer (the writing tool I use). Just like that. the only evidence it ever existed was it got autoposted to Twitter and Facebook. Luckily Facebook has all the text so I can just recreate it. I’m keeping an eye on this tricky bastard though!

Poolside Vs. Goldroom

Josh Legg’s Goldroom project just keeps going from strength to strength.

He’s just dropped this reMix of Poolside’s ‘Do You Believe’?’  and it’s another storming track full of those chilled Goldroom vibes. With a slightly Tropical feel to the melody and percussion and some smooth music DNA running through this reMix is a head on collision between Disco and Yacht Rock. Perfect for lazy summer evenings.

Jordan F’s new EP

jordanf

Here we have two new tracks from Jordan F’s forthcoming EP.

The Syndey producer is soon to be treating us to a full EP of his slick retro synth epics. ‘Outrun’ is the EP’s lead track, straight-up Dreamwave electro it has all the elements you want. Driven by a punchy digital bass ‘Outrun’ is an extravagant homage to all things 80s and action packed with an upbeat hook, a sweet breakdown and a training montage of a middle eight. The EP continues with ‘Night Pursuit’  which is more of the same but with a moodier, more introspective, vibe. The 80’s bass and leads really shine through in this track. Both track nicely mix up nostalgic melodies and retro synths with solid beats and a Disco flavour. The EP will be defiantly something you should check out.

♫ Jordan F – Outrun

♫ Jordan F – Night Pursuit

Jordan F’s EP is out soon.
