Two new Lazerhawk tracks in one week!
‘Distant Signal 001’ seems to be a continuation of the ‘Visitors’ EP. It’s a track with an absolute killer digital synth bassline. Sci-fi pads lend atmosphere to this cosmic Dreamwave track. Sparkling synths and alien lead sounds add to the musical abduction experience. Just stay focused on that bassline!

Follow @electronicrumorSo it looks like Swedish ElectroPop firecracker Little Jinder has given up on trying to be called just ‘Jinder’ and we can all breathe a sigh of relief and call her Little Jinder again.
Here’s her new single ‘Without You’, it’s a impressive mix of ElectroPop, Dubstep and a hint of Drum & Bass.
‘Without You’ is out this week on Trouble & Bass

Arcadia; what Duran Duran did in 1985 when they got a bit board of tropical beaches. ‘Election Day’ was their biggest hit.

This week saw the release of a brand new Stay Ali EP on Technofavrik (the label of one Monsieur Adi).
‘Koaligula’ is the title track and it’s a beautifully crafted slice of laid back. Scandinavian Electronica. Don’t worry, there is a solid beat in there, but it’s layered thick with lush synth organs, biting leads and haunting melodies. Effortlessly pleasing to listen to, ‘Koaligula’ is like a meeting of Røyksopp and Jean-Michel Jarre with just a hint of a nod toward the Disco.
♫ Stay Ali – Koaligula
The ‘Koaligula’ EP is out now.

The big Electro anthem from Digitalism’s recent ‘I Love You, Dude’ album, ‘Circles’, is to be their next single.
The tune gets a suitably anthemic video comprised of theatre, stadium & festival footage of the guys live. It was directed by A Nice Idea Everyday.
‘Circles’ is taken from Digitalism’s current album, ‘I Love You, Dude’, out now.

Nu-Disco wunderkind Louis La Roché has reMixed The Swiss’s forthcoming new single ‘Double Or Nothing’.
The single sees a welcome return after a period of quiet from the Australian ElectroPop duo and La Rouché’s reMix really sets the tone. Working the vocoded vocals hard to ride a bouncy Disco bassline, this reMix is pure Sci-Fi robotic Disco madness with laid back undercurrent.

‘Double Or Nothing’ will be released 23rd September with another original track, ‘Womanthem’ and a reMix from Headman.

The cometition is really heating up in Fear Of Tigers’s ‘The Adventures Of Pippi Longsrump’ reMix wars.
Aduno So Tanie, Kelek & Dusty Digital are the latest two names to submit entries, both really high quality. Aduno has been featured on electronic rumors before and here brings a really glossy synth epic. Dreamwave in the truest sense of the word, this reMix doesn’t rely on kicking drums or a Disco bass to carry it, it merely soars along on intertwining layers of lush synths and uses the vocal sample in a way we haven’t heard before. Kelek’s take on the track is an awesome head on collision between mid-80’s ElectroPop and French Touch, with an almost New Order feel to it with a Nu-Disco sheen. Kelek really makes the track his own with a melody that will stick in your head. Dusty Digital bring more of a Disco flavour to the tune with a funky little lick running throughout.
♫ Fear Of Tigers – The Adventures Of Pippi Longstrump (Aduno So Tanie reMix)
♫ Fear Of Tigers – The Adventures Of Pippi Longstrump (Kelek reMix)
♫ Fear Of Tigers – The Adventures Of Pippi Longstrump (Dusty Digital reMix)
All three are amazing works, if I had to choose one, gun to my head, I think the Kelek one would just take it.
