Heartbreak reMixes La Roux

There are a few reMixes of La Roux’s forthcoming second single ‘In For The Kill’ knocking around, and there will be more to come I bet, but this one has to be my favourite so far.

No surprise it comes courtesy of Heartbreak, who bring a real, retro, Italo, feel to the table. This really wouldn’t be out of place on a mid-late 80’s dancefloor!

Kinda’ miss the “Ooooo, Ooooo”s though…

Both La Roux and Heartbreak are more than worthy of your attention.

La Roux Killer reMix

LaRoux4

I picked this up over at Nerdy-Frames. It’s a reMix of La Roux’s ‘In For The Kill’ by Australian Dan Aux and, blimey, it’s good!

There’s something really heartfelt about this reMix, it seems to be a perfect compliment to Ely’s vocals. It’s all about the wobbly bass and sweet pads.

SCNDL & Drama

SCNDL

I’m lovin’ this track ‘Drama’ by SCNDL, it’s got everything you’d want from a dark Electro dance tune, there’s even some industrial percussion in there. Noisy and funky at the same time, and Electro-House killer!

♫ SCNDL – Drama (Original Mix) (zShare) (MediaFire)

SCNDL are recent signings to Coco Machete and so have got the likes of Fukkk Offf and Dog Tags to perform reMix duties.

We Are Terrorists: Don’t Panic reMixed

WeAreTerrorists

Out this month, on Boxon Records, is We Are Terrorists’ ‘Don’t Panic reMixes’ EP.

The EP feature a whopping 12 reMixes of tracks from last year’s original ‘Dont’ Panic’ EP, 5 of which are available on the 12” (all 12 in digital format).

The ‘Don’t Panic’ EP was a raucous Electro affair full of soaring synths and angsty vocals. The reMix pack is looking like it will include some real club floor fillers.

Amongst the reMixers are Daroc, Digikid84 and DilemN, sample them here at 96kbps:

thecocknbullkid: new single

thecocknbullkid

Today sees the release of Electro Soulstress thecocknbullkid’s second single ‘I’m Not Sorry’, the follow up to last year’s Metronomy produced ‘On My Own’, on limited edition 7” and download.

‘I’m Not Sorry’ is a slice of poppy brilliance. Cheekily harsh lyrics with a sickly sweet delivery, like a iron fist in a velvet glove, SynthPop style.

Hackney’s Anita Blay A.K.A. thecocknbullkid is going to be very big, very soon.

Have a taster by way of Stuart Ramsay’s pumping reMix.

‘I’m Not Sorry’ is out today on Moshi Moshi Records
