Powerglove’s ‘Crypt’

Powerglove

Never one to miss out on the opportunity some ‘80’s straight-to-video horror theme Electro Powerglove enters the party, bringing with him a slice of creepy cool SynthWave.

‘Crypt’ drops some unsettling baroque elements over pumping sidechained Electro, the a hypnotic and otherworldly harpsichord refrain setting the scene for all manner of synthesizer horror. And when the sweeping retro synths kick in, you know you’re not getting out alive!

Young Digerati cover Werewolves Of London

The last of Young Digerati’s trilogy of Halloween cover versions finds them attacking cover of Warren Zevon’s ‘Werewolves Of London’.

Beautifully turning the 70’s glam rock track into some slick ‘80’s DiscoPop, I can’t help but think that the track works better like this. This is easily mid-‘80’s horror-comedy soundtrack fare, probably featuring a bratpacker and out just in time for the holidays.

Sam Padrul reMixes Ghosthouse

ghosthouse

Ghosthouse are a Chicago duo who make ElectroPop tracks with a massive dose of Funk. their latest track ‘9.2.5’ has been given the reMix treatment by Sam Padrul.

I was going to try to write this without mentioning Chromeo, but it was too much like hard work, because Ghosthouse are defiantly traveling the same road, with some added Prince-like qualities and pulsing electronics to make their sound their own. Sam Padrul takes the track and gives it a laid back beach Nu-Disco workout full of bouncing synths and a slick little guitar lick the roll the track along.

VanGuard Vs. Fred Falke

fred falke

The kings of Welsh Disco VanGuard drop a giant sized slab of funk with their reMix of Fred Falke’ Wait For Love’

‘Wait For Love’ is a track that had been knocking around, in one form or another, for a few years now and VanGuard give it that kick it needs to bring it to the dancefloors of 2011, in their hands the track, admittedly a French Touch classic, sounds bigger, stronger, and funkier.

Pyramid’s new tune

Pyramid

Here’s a nice Sunday Electro jam from Pyramid.

Dropped in thanks for hitting 1500 ‘likes’ on Facebook, ‘On A Walk’ is an instrumental analog synth balled with a Sci-Fi feel. We’re still loving the way Pyramid combines Italo style basses with more raw, live sounding elements along with his beautiful melodies and atmospheres.
