The Scientists Of Modern Music & VanGuard

The Scientists Of Modern Music

Welsh Nu-Disco boys VanGuard have reMixed The Scientists Of Modern Music’s latest ElectroPop offering.

The single ‘Because If I die’ has been around for a couple of months now but VanGuard give it a new lease of life with their brand of twisted bass Disco. A touch of 80’s, a touch of LA Funk and loads of some of the most meticulously programmed Nu-Disco around with a feel for the dancefloor. That’s how VanGuard roll, add that to The Scientists Of Modern Music’s ElectroPop anthem and you’re onto a winner.

♫ The Scientists Of Modern Music – Because If I Die (VanGuard reMix)

‘Because If I Die’ is the first single from the album ‘A Personal Universe’, out now.

Moustache Machine reMixes Justice

justice

Hey! I’m writing a post about Justice and Uffie! It’s like it’s 2007 all over again!

The reason for this blast from the (recent) past is one of our favourite up-and-coming producers, Moustache Machine, has reMixed Justice’s Uffie featuring track ‘Tthhee Ppaarrttyy’, giving it a modern retro gloss. All digital bass and stratospheric lead lines Moustach Machine has made the track fresh again.

Justice’s new album, ‘Audio, Video, Disco’ is out soon on Ed Banger.

Ace Attack

ace attack

Ace Attack is a French producer who had just dropped his first EP of Retro inspired Electro tunes.

Drawing from a range of modern Electro influences Ace Attack’s music spans everything from soaring Dreamwave solos to gritty Danger style bit-crushed riffs. But it’s the melodies and musicianship here that really impress, these are real instrumental pieces, the kind produced by Jarre, Hammer or Hancock. Imagine Jarre laying down an awesome melodic peice over Kavinsky dropping some rough Electro, that’s kinda’ close. Check it out:

♫ Ace Attack – Alone

♫ Ace Attack – But I’ve Got The Funk

You can download the whole EP for free for the price of a Facebook ‘like’ here.

Popskarr’s new single

popskarr

South African reMix and production duo Popskarr have just dropped their new single ‘Tonight’ for free.

‘Tonight’ is a song of two levels. On one hand it’s got a stomping modern Electro beat and a touch of Electro-House about it, but on top of that the chords and vocals are really melancholic 80’s. It’s an interesting combination that really works and as the track builds toward it;’s finale there is a real sense of drama about the track. reMixes are supplied by, amongst others, Show Your Shoe and King Of Town. SYS show us a different side to his work with a chilled, almost ambient tune. Rolling, glitchy, drums and broken synths are used to their fullest effect to create a really involving atmospheric electronic peice. King Of Town go all out with a dancefloor oriented ElectroPop stomper, heavy on the sweeping.

♫ Popskarr – Tonight (Original)

♫ Popskarr – Tonight (Show Your Shoe reMix)

♫ Popskarr – Tonight (King Of Town’s Destroy The Brain Or Remove The Head reMix)

Fabian X Reset!

fabian

We dropped our review of Fabian’ new single ‘Last Flight’ last month, so as the single is released this week we can treat you to the Electro rockin’ Reset! reMix.

The original is such smooth Dreamwave that the Reset! reMix really stands out in contrast. It’s totally a tune to drive the crowd mental, chopping up snatched of the original and throwing them into a pit of funky chainsaw synths. Guaranteed to get you moving..

♫ Fabian – Last Flight (Reset! reMix)

‘Last Flight’ is released this week on Binary Entertainment.

Arnaud Rebotini covers ‘I Feel Love’

arnaud-rebotini

The Black Strobe man Arnaud Rebotini has just dropped this impressive cover of Donna Summer’s (well, Giorgio Moroder’s really) ‘I Feel Love’.

It’s an epic eight minutes of analog synth awesomeness. Everything from the drums to the instantly recognisable arpeggio is pitch perfect. This is no mere carbon copy, Rebotini makes it very much his own handling the vocals with use of a vocoder, but the vocals take a back seat throughout much of the track, the focus being more on a Rebotini knob twiddling Disco workout.

Marina And The Diamonds; Electra Heart Part 2, ‘Radioactive’

Marina And The Diamonds has débuted the next instalment of her ‘Electra Heart’ series of films.

‘Radioactive’ is also slated to be her next single and it’s a proper dancefloor track, more-so that we’d expect from Marina, what with it being full of big late 90’s trace sounds. It’s a good song though, can’t wait for the reMixes.

‘Radioactive’ is released 3rd October’
