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!

Flume
Jazzy, soulful, slightly Chillwavey with a hint of Disco and a touch of Glitch is how you might describe the title track from Flume’s first EP.
‘Sleepless’ (which features Anthony For Cleopatra) is a pretty stunning début for this Sydney based 19-year old producer. Chopped beats and cut-up vocals are pretty standard fare for Glitchy electronica but Flume layers these with a true understanding of Funk and a smooth groove that ties the track together and makes it more than it’s contemporaries.

The “Sleepless’ EP is out 22nd August on Future Classic.

Candy Apple Blue’s new single
Here’s the new single from Candy Apple Blue, continuing their mission to bring their DIY retro Pop to the masses.
Harkening back to classic male/female vocal call-and-response track of the 80’s, ‘Caught Up In To’ is nostalgic 80’s soundtrack pop reinvented for the BedroomPop era. The synth arrangement is particularly pleasing, intertwining analog melodies to keep every synthesizer fan happy. Candy Apple Blue unashamedly wear their influences on their sleeve, and while many exaggerate their 80’s roots or pepper them over contemporary tracks, Candy Apple Blue make authentic sounding 80’s hits. Every song from them could be an undiscovered one-hit-wonder from ‘85.

Darren Hayes reMixed by Fred Falke & Penguin Prison
Darren Hayes, luminary of electronic Pop music, has roped in some awesome talent to reMix his latest single ‘Talk Talk Talk’.
French Touch legend Fred Falke is up first and turns in a fantastic mix. Quite subdued but Falke has caught the mood of the song perfectly. Not going overboard this reMix is a subtle form of French Touch. Never in your face, more walking beside you, Falke’s reMix blends ElectroPop and Nu-Disco so smoothly you’ll feel like you’ve known the song forever. Penguin Prision get’s his more Indie-Disco styled hands on the track and brings his post-BedroomPop groove to the tune, giving it a live and stripped down synth feel and keeping it bouncy.

Ronika reMixes Oh My!
It’s kinda’ turning into Ronika week here at electronic rumors towers. Yesterday we dropped her atomic bomb of a new single and today we present her recent reMix for Pop duo Oh My!.
Oh My! have steadily releasing reMixes of their new single ‘Kicking And Screaming’ almost daily this month to promote the single release and here Ronika treats us to massive slab of her 80’s Pop/New York Disco clash. The girl defiantly knows her way around a synth and isn’t afraid of either Funk or Pop. From it’s B-Boy bassline to it’s Disco melodies the reMix displays, one again, Ronika’s unique, but instantly recognisable nostalgic, take on ElectroPop. No-one is doing it quite like her right now.

Monarchy’s ‘Maybe I’m Crazy’ video
The official video for Monarchy’s next single ‘Maybe I’m Crazy’ premiered today.
It’s strangely 80’s, not in it’s content or look or feel, but in it’s editing, effects. and photography. It’s also the most (non-comedy) Sci-Fi video they’ve done since The Phoenix Alive.
‘Maybe I’m Crazy’ is Monarchy’s next single. It’s taken from the amazing album ‘Around The Sun’, out now.

Mz Longstrump’s mortal kombat continues, enter: Silenx
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.
