Underhall

Underhall are a brand new production duo from the south of France.

Comprised of Lucas and Roger, Underhall cite amongst their influences Electro, early House music and the video game 8-bit sounds.

On The Fruit Records have picked the guys up and are releasing their début EP ,‘Digithall’, which features reMixes from the likes of Freak You, Bestrack and StereoHeroes and these three we can preview for you here. Bestrack bring a brilliant, absolutely huge Electro-House mix to the table, loaded with chainsaw synths. Freak You’s version is more epic sounding and Stereoheroes is a low down dirty Electro banger.

All three reMixes are top stuff!

Silver Columns

Silver Columns are one of those mystery bands, everyone will speculate it’s someone we’ve all heard of, but it probably won’t be! They’re French (maybe?) and their first single was reMixed by Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard, that’s about all we know.

Anyway, the music is what should be doing the talking and Silver Columns make some sweet ElectroPop, almost as enigmatic and mysterious sounding as the band’s persona. Their second single ‘Yes, And Dance’ was released this month and featured reMixes from Silver Columns themselves and Weirdo Police.

Check out the reMixes below, Silver Columns are defiantly a name to keep an eye on if your a fan of electronic dancey Pop

Delphic in Doubt

I’ve been meaning to drop some Delphic on you for a while now. This Manchester Indie Dance outfit are making some pretty big waves amongst both music fans and press with some even going so far as to call them the “New Order for the 21st century”. Their last single “This Momentary” on Kitsuné Music was a genre crushing tune the received some pretty great acclaim and they have been tearing it up live un and down the UK.

Delphic are about to drop their début album ‘Acolyte’ on their own label Chimeric and here we have a couple of reMixes of the first single from the album, ‘Doubt’ by Riton and Ramadanman. Riton’s mix has already been floating around for a while and is a work of cut-up genius.

Also, if you’re interested, Delphic are holding a reMix competition for ‘Doubt’ over at their official website, check it out!

Kap10Kurt takes on Ocelot

Top reMixers Ocelot drop their artist album on Wall Of Sound soon and in gearing up for the release have roped in talent to reMix for them. Dreamwave pioneers Kap10Kurt take on their track ‘Our Time’

We’ve not heard anything from Kap10Kurt for a while but this reMix makes up for it. Big 80’s synth stabs and vocoders work the hell out of this Nu-Disco madness.

♫ Ocelot – Our Time (Kap10Kurt reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire)

Ocelot’s album is due out next year.

Calling In Sick reMixes Bertie Blackman

I first fell in love with Calling In Sick’s music after I heard their storming reMix of Midfield General (Feat. ViLa)’s ‘Disco Sirens’.

The Aussie duo’s latest project is this rework of Bertie Blackman’s ‘Black Cats’ and it’s got that wicked digital slap bass and huge distorted synth riffs that I loved about Calling In Sick’s previous reMixes. This’ll tear up any electro dancefloor!

♫ Bertie Blackman – Black Cats (Calling In Sick reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire)

Bertie Blackman has just won ‘Breakthrough Independent Artist of the Year’ and ‘Best Independent Release’ at the Australian Independent Record Label Association Awards.

We Have Band Vs. Le Matos

We Have Band’s new single, ‘Honey Trap’, has been masterfully reMixed by Canadian synth heads Le Matos.

Rapid fire arpeggios fuel the track on top the steady disco beat. We Have Band and Le Matos is a pretty sweet pairing actually, the track works really well. Check out the driving ElectroPop tune here:
