Goldroom reMixes Gigamesh

gigamesh2

I’ve been dying to post this for a couple of weeks and now I finally can. Here’s Goldroom‘s masterful reMix of Gigamesh’s ‘Red Light’.

Premiered on The Magicians’ ‘Magic Tape Sixteen’ , Josh Legg’s reMix can only be described as ‘a treat for the ears’. This track is the aural equivalent of sitting on a rooftop, overlooking the city, watching the sun go down, an end to the day and the slow beginnings of the night. I would have said ‘sitting on a beach’ but there is something slightly urban about the track, I think it’s the rolling ‘80’s bass gives it a hot city nights feel while the dreamy synth work bring to mind that point at dusk when anything is possible. We’ve really dug all of Josh’s  Goldroom work so far, but he has really nailed it this time!

Monarchy reMixed by Dusk

monarchy

And here we have the latest in the long line of reMixes of Monarchy and Britt Love’s ‘You Don’t What To Dance With Me’. This time Dusk (a mystery man with zero internet presence) takes up the reins.

Dusk has turned in a stomping deep mix of the track. Full of low rumbling synths and tribal drums, it’s a powerful peice of work, only let down by some pretty discordant pitching of the vocals. That aside, the reMix is cool, combining glitchy clicks and pop and toytown melodies with the big percussion and dominant chords in a moody, ominous, dark dancefloor mix.

♫ Monarchy (Feat. Britt Love) – You Don’t Want To Dance With Me (Dusk reMix)

‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ originally comes from the ‘Around The Sun’ album, out now, the single is also out now.

Dimitri From Paris & DJ Rocca’s new EP

Dimitri From Paris

Dimitri From Paris & DJ Rocca have come together once more, riding the success of their ‘A Reason for Living’ EP, for a brand new six track release.

‘Erodiscotique’ continues in the same vein of floor filling Electro-Boogie with a nice live instrumentation feel. Interestingly, the EP features a cover of Pet Shop Boys ‘Domino Dancing’ which builds upon the song with a sweet ‘90’s house piano. Both Rocca and Dimitri deliver their interpretations of the track, with Rocca mix just taking the prize for being slightly more retro-funky. the EP’s lead track, ‘Ero Disco Theme’, nicely mixes synthesizer Funk with beach Disco for a smooth and sexy party starter. The other original, ‘Back To House’ does exactly what is says on the tin, this is pure Chicago House, pure late ‘80’s, and a really good approximation of it too, it;s got that deep groove and 909 beats, the House piano and a soulful melody on top. And of course, a sample of some deep voiced dude going on about “House Music”, now that’s authenticity!

Noir Deco & MPM Soundtracks

Noir Deco

‘Future To Fantasy’ is the title of Newcastle SynthWave Producer Noir Deco new album, due out this week. Here’s a taste of what’s to come with a track featuring the awesome MPM Soundtracks.

‘Journeys’ is exactly that, a sonic exploration of rain soaked, neon lit, futuristic metropolis backstreets. With a hint of Italo about it, that keeps the energy up, the track is a masterful peice of soundtrack work. A synthesizer odyssey that leads you through the darkness, into the blinding artificial light as it sweeps from mood to mod. Can’t wait for the album!

♫ Noir Deco (Feat. MPM Soundtracks) – Journeys

‘Future To Fantasy’ is released this Friday on Playmaker Ent..

Queen Of Hearts reMixed by Lois Plugged & Fruckie

I get the feeling there’s a few reMixes of Queen Of Hearts’ ‘Black Star’ incoming.

Lois Plugged & Fruckie are up first with this reMix I was concerned, before the beat kicks in, was going to be mediocre Dubstep, but in actual fact it turned out quite nice. Taking all the good bit’s about Dubstep and applying it to a Disco beat and ElectroPop melody. OK, so there is the obligatory Dubstep breakdown, which felt a little tacked on, but that aside the rest of the mix is pretty much dancefloor gold.

Com Truise’s ‘She Melts’

Com Truise

Here’s a slice of synthetic romance Com Truise has just released from his archives.

‘She Melts’ is an LA-style neo-Funk infused Dreamwave jam from the New Jersey synthesizer master. All fat bassline on bright leads, with a glitchy quality to the layers of synths, Mr. Truise shows one again why he is the kind of this style.
