The Magician Jeppe Plastic Plates

the magician

Plastic Plates reMixing The Magician? You know you’re in for a treat there! Two of the ruling acts in synthesizer Disco in a head on collision where the explosion sounds like an electro tom roll.

‘I Don’t Know What To Do’, featuring Jeppe on vocals, was already a top slice of Disco flavoured ElectroPop but Plastic Plates bring in a shuffling space Funk vibe. I would kinda’ like to see this overdubbed into the Disco scene in the 80’s Buck Rogers TV Movie with Gil Gerard & Erin Gray gettin’ down.

♫ The Magician (Feat. Jeppe) – I Don’t Know What To Do (Plastic Plates reMix)

‘I Don’t Know What To Do’ is released 3rd October on Kitsuné Music.

Monarchy’s new video

Monarchy and Britt Love‘s single version of ‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ is now available for your viewing pleasure.

Petty unusual for Monarchy in that it focuses on them, the guys need new masks though. This version of the track is really growing on me.

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

Monarchy’s reworked ‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’

monarchy

‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ is Monarchy’s new single. Rerecorded from the album version as a duet with Britt Love from Mini Viva.

It’s an odd choice of single, but once you get into it you see how inspired it is as a decision. Mid-tempo and quirky the track will show casual Monarchy listeners that there is more to them than the big, catchy, ElectroPop epics. ‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ is all rolling breakbeats and powerful, ominous, synths that provide a moody soundscape for Britt and Ra to trade vocal accusations.

Cyndi Seui covers Badly Drawn Boy

Cyndi Seui latest release come straight from the forthcoming Kitsch Cat Vol.2 compilation and features Gramaphone Children to boot.

A Cover of Badly Drawn Boy’s ‘Silent Sigh’ the track sees Seui becoming even more of a force to be reckoned with as he effortlessly rides the thin line between Nu-Disco/Dreamwave and ElectroPop. Lush synthesizer Pop, multi layers and meticulously produced, that’s always kept funky with a slick Disco bassline is Seui’s trademark, and he deftly applies that to this cover version turning a reasonably dreary song into a beautiful synth powerhouse.

♫ Cyndi Seui (Feat. Gramaphone Children) – Silent Sigh (Bradley Drawn Boy Cover)

Kitsch Cat Vol.2 is out in November and features Cyndi Seui, Yuri’s Nominee, Gramaphone Children, Stargazer, Instant Science, Pelific, and Astrolabe.

It’s their new single it’s pretty guitary over the electronic throb, and the video is pretty fucked up.

Mustang & Clubfeet reMix Crystal Fighters

crystalfighters

Crystal Fighters new single ‘Champion Sound’ come complete with a whole host of top reMixes.

Out next month on Different the highlights of the reMix package come from Mustang and Clubfeet. Both artists take the left-field ElectroPop of the Fighters and make it their own. Mustang give us something a little different from their norm with a big deep, pretty dark, analog groove fest that pulsates through your brain. Clubfeet provide the popiest of the reMixes with a summery Indie-Electro feel build upon layers of smooth synths and turns the vocal track into a lazy poolside sing-a-long.

♫ Crystal Fighters – Champion Sound (Mustang reMix)

♫ Crystal Fighters – Champion Sound (Clubfeet Resleeve reMix)

‘Champion Sound’ is released October 10th.

May68’s new single

may68

May68 have just announced their new single, ‘White Lies’.

Part retro SynthPop, part Tropical, ‘White Lies’ is a strangely schizophrenic beast. The jangly IndiePop of many of their former Kitsuné label mates sits alongside bouncy analog synth bass and occasionally the track feels like it looses focus. This doesn’t stop it, however, from being a totally catchy tune that is sure to fire up Indie-Dance discos across the UK.

♫ May68 – White Lies

‘White Lies’ is released 17th October on Black Duck Records.

The Juan MacLean’s new tune

juan-maclean

‘Everybody Get Close’ is the new tune from DFA jack-of-all-trades The Juan MacLean.

It’s the title track from his forthcoming new record, due out November 6th, which collects various bits and pieces from the last few years of his career. ‘Everybody Get Close’ is an analog Disco workout, all vocoders and sweeping synths. With one foot heavily in Moog Funk this track feels like old school The Juan MacLean and that raw New York Disco DFA sound.
