Ali Love; Love In Darkness

AliLove03

Courtesy of the fine folks at Big Stereo, check out this leak from Ali Love’s forthcoming album, ‘Love Harder’.

It’s an arpeggio fuelled, sleazy, lament with a serious mid ‘80’s lead line that just makes us exited for this album release even more. The injection of a 303 acid build around the 3m20s mark is both jarring and genius, the whole song has a vibe of the best/worst night of your life.

Gypsy And The Cat; SHAZAM reMix

GypsyAndTheCat02

We introduced you to Gypsy And The Cat a while back, including their summery anthem ‘Jona Vark’.

The track has now has a working over by fellow Aussie producer SHAZAM who takes the laidback vibe of the original, gives it steroids, and kicks it to the dancefloor with a hard kick drum, Disco strings and some of the best electro-tom work this side of the ‘70’s.

Gypsy And The Cat are planning to release their début album this year, and an initial single, ‘Time To Wonder’ is out 21st June via Young & Lost

Rox

Rox is a 22 year old half Jamaican, half Iranian singer/songwriter currently signed to Rough Trade and making waves on the live music scene.

Her forthcoming single ‘I Don’t Believe’ has had reMix treatments from the Electro-House and Dubstep ends of the electronic music spectrum by Don Diablo and Landlord respectively. Diablo’s take on the track builds, on top of the Roots elements, a 2-step Electro track that will have you groovin’ wherever you hear it while Landlord expertly crafts a deep, dark bass monster.

I gotta’ say, the Don Diablo mix is one of my favourite tracks of the week!

Rox’s début album, ‘Memoirs’ is out soon and her current single ‘My Baby Left Me’ is available now.

DMX Krew’s new album!

DMXKrew

DMX Krew are easily one of my favourite artists of all time. At one time or other Ed DMX has covered most of my personal preferences in electronic music, from Electro Hip-Hop to retro SynthPop, from Experimental to Space Synth.

it’s been a while since we’ve had and of DMX Krew’s Pop material, recent releases have been Experimental electronic odysseys and his latest album, ‘The March To the Stars’, builds upon this while adding a touch of an electronic soundtrack vibe. At times sounding like Jean-Michel Jarre by way of Kraftwerk this is a record that can take to away with it on a robotic journey.

It’s an odd comment for a website that deals with electronic music to make, but this album is just so damn electronic!

It’s good to have DMX Krew back!

Clock Opera

London’s Clock Opera have been dropping some stellar reMixes of late but it’s time to turn some attention to their own work.

Their second single, ‘A Piece Of String’ is released next month but you can preview it right here, right now. It’s a raw sounding collision between the Experimental and the Pop. A catchy, summery song built on a base of industrial percussion and found sounds. Not many could pull it off, Clock Opera do!

The single is released 7th June on Maman Records.

Robyn reMixes

robyn03

Scandinavian ElectroPop whirlwind Robyn’s forthcoming single ‘Dancing On My Own’, for her new album ‘Body Talk Pt. 1’ is shaping up to have an awesome reMix package supporting it.

Things in the Rex The Dog camp have been pretty quiet recently but he’s powering back with this amazing reMix, the trademark Rex The Dog style bassline really kicks the track up a notch, it’s really Poppy for RtD but may have place Roby (like last year) in our top 20 of 2010 already! Chew-Fu don’t do a bad job themselves, turning in a euphoric, hands-in-the-air slice of Electro-House with a really 80’s movie feel.

New track from ¡borracho!

borracho02

¡borracho! have stopped by the electronic rumors Inbox all the way from Canada to drop off their latest track.

Kicking off with an introductory build leaves you aching for the beat to kick in, you’re not disappointed when it does. It’s a mid-tempo, pretty psychedelic, Electro jam that let’s chainsaw synths sweep around over a hypnotic base riff.

Defiantly some fine listening for this Sunday!

Friends Electric

FriendsElectric

Friends Electric are no strangers to electronic rumors, we’ve featured a few of their awesome reMixes for the likes of Penguin Prison Bright Light Bright Light and Ellie Goulding (their reMix of ‘Under The Sheets’ made our top 20 songs of 2009) so about time some original material was posted.

The Welsh Indie-Electro/ElectroPop crew have already supported Frankmusik (who they share management with) on tour and scored some big name reMixes and are gearing up for the release of their début single ‘Wall Of Arms’ in July.

The track is a solid slice of Indie tinged electronic Pop, with stylistic nods to the Neon Gold stable (and associated acts), that shows the massive potential FE have for some really good epic, anthemic ElectroPop.

Boy 8-Bit reMixed by The Loose Cannons

Boy8-Bit

Boy 8-Bit deep Electro cut from the ‘Baltic Pine’ EP, ‘Wolfen’, has been giving a complete rework by The Loose Cannons and I’m finding it hard not to call it ‘funny’.

‘Cos it is, it’s a funny track. The Loose Cannons obviously has a lot of fun with this when reMixing it. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a pretty full-on dancefloor banger built on hard beats and chainsaw synths that will go down a treat in any Electro set, but it was made with a sense of humour, which is lacking from many Electro tracks.

Edwin Van Cleef reMixes Funkstar De Luxe

FunkstarDeLuxe

It seems like it’s been a while since we heard from Valerie House-meister Edwin Van Cleef, but he has cropped up reMixing Funkstar De Luxe’s latest single ‘Do You Feel?’.

Van Cleef’s reMix is smooth, radio friendly, Electro Disco jam, keeping the vocals of the original intact and injecting some of that retro inspired synth groove we would expect from the man.
