Bros reMixed by Drop Out Orchestra

Bros

By Bros we mean, as an short for brothers, not a large number of people you’d call bro. ‘Cos this is Bros of ‘When Will I Be Famous’ and ‘Drop The Boy’ ( Ooo Er) fame, being given a massive slice of Acid Disco by Drop Out Orchestra.

DOO take the trio’s breakthrough hit ‘When Will I Be Famous’ of 1987 and give it a burbling 303 makeover with a Disco beat. Ad some funk guitar in the mix and you’ve got a slick update to a song that everybody knows.

Douze’s new EP

douze1

Friday saw the release of French Discomeister Douze’s ‘Eternity’s Call Back’ EP from Discotexas.

the EP’s two original tracks ‘Eternity’s Call Back’ and ‘Forsaken’ are sweeping, cosmic slices of electronic Disco Funk, with ‘Forsaken’ even verging into space-age ElectroPop territory. To mark the release, check out these two reMixes of ’Forsaken’ from Freak You, who turns the track into a digital slap bass monster with a surprising, but wicked, electric piano lead line, and Publicist, whose deep analog synth Disco take is a smooth robotic dancefloor invasion.

Goin’ Old School (with Kid Machine!): Marzio Dance – You Can Do It

This week we are tuning over the Goin’ Old School reigns to Manchester’s Italo/SynthWave guru Kid Machine:

Marzio Dance – You Can Do It from 1984. “Looks like a proper disco, and he’s dressed for a proper disco (I’ve just found my new hairstyle for 2012′). Above all, the Marzio productions has been a great influence on me. Dark electronic slo-mo beats and ominous heavy, dusty basslines. Xenon ‘Adventure’ is my favourite but this live video is ace!”

Silenx reMixes R3set

R3set

Earlier this year R3set released his retro ElectroPop Disco bomb of an EP, ‘Runaway’, the lead track. particularly, being slick as hell soulful electronic goodness. Not it falls to on of our favourite producers, Silenx, to get us reacquainted with the track.

Silenx version drags the track into epic SynthWave territory with a fidgeting bassline, and a solid Italo beat providing grounding for some synth work that’s is as soulful as the originals vocals. this is just one more peice of genius from the man Silenx.

Young Empires reMixed by digitalfoxglove

Young Empires

Now this is what we’re talking about! Germanys unsung Dreamwave workhorse digitalfoxglove gives Young Empires’ ‘enter Through The Sun’ some of his sweet sweet Disco lovin’.

The results are like a beach party in your ears, and everyone’s invited! Cutting through the song with a bouncy bassline and some seriously soaring lead lines. Whether as digitalfoxglove, Nightdive or as a quater of Ride the Universe, DFG’s productions ate like a stamp of quality, he’s just got a certain clean, crisp and funky sound that is instantly recognisable and generally head and shoulders above his peers. It’s time the spotlight was tuned on digitalfoxglove for good.
