beaumont reMixes Rüfüs

rufus

beaumont takes time out from his inventing a new genre of slowed down, laid back Nu-Disco to return to his Dreamwave/Nu-Disco roots with his new reMix of Rüfüs’ ‘We Left’.

Proving without a shadow of a doubt that he still has the skills to rock the Disco, this reMix is a full-on solid electronic epic with it’s feet on the dancefloor and it’s head in the clouds. It’s got all the right 80’s cues, and all the right Nu-Disco cues, in all the right places. beaumont’s sweeping phased synths work particularly well with the track’s vocals. The reMix features on On The Fruit’s release of ‘We Left’, as a single, alongside reMixes from Ride The Universe and SymbolOne .

Jowie Schulner goes sonic

sonic

Boombar Records main-man Jowie Schulner has dropped a new tune that some of you might find a bit familiar. Like a distant memory, this track is drilled into many of our consciousness’.

It’s the music from the Green Hill zone of the Original 1991 Sega Mega Drive Sonic the Hedgehog, which Jowie has transformed into a storming Dreamwave epic. The tune lends itself amazingly to retro Synthwavey stuff, with it’s soaring lead that was just made to be taken out of the green zone and into the nightdrive. This put a smile on my face all day!

Goin’ Old School: a-ha – The Sun Always Shines On TV

a-ha’s ‘The Sun Always Shines On TV’ really reminds me of 1985. If you had a PPG Wave would you put it on that wonky stand?

MiGHty mOUse’s ‘Between The Pavement And The Stars’ drops today

mighty mouse

Today sees the release of MiGHty mOUse’s awesome summer sure-to-be-a-hit single, ‘Between The Pavement And The Stars’.

I’m not going to go on too much about the track, we have already raved about it, and the Edwin Van Cleef mix enough already, suffice to say it’s a catchy, funky slice of vocal DiscoPop that is sure to blow up over summer. Now the single is out you can listen to the whole reMix package on SoundCloud. Although I don’t think any of them top the original, followed by the EvC mix, there are some choice cuts on the single. Firstly MiGHty mOUse’s own ‘Funkatronic Restoration’ is an electric piano lead funker with some organ and a large horn section that mixes up their electronic Disco with a Motown flavour. Mario Basanov takes the track in a deep, bass heavy direction with his Proggy reMix and Greek SynthPop artist Tareq turns in a classic Synth track with a nice groove to it that uses the vocals to epic effect. The whole collection is pretty top quality and comes highly recommended.

She’s The Queen’s way

Yeah, yeah, I know, it’s not Thursday. But whatcha’ gonna’ do if She’s The Queen drop a weekend track at the weekend?

I don’t know what the weather is like where you are, dear reader (did I just say that?), but here after a couple of weeks of awesome the heavens have opened and it’s chucking down. Hopefully in your neck of the woods the sun is shining and you can crank up the stereo and play ‘The Way’ all afternoon. While many StQ tracks demonstrate Drew’s frankly mystical production skills, here, maybe more than any other track, Emily’s vocal ability is really showcased. With a classic, soulful Pop voice, Emily effortlessly breezes through the highs and lows of the song with a delivery both powerful and nuanced. Smooth and summery, this new tune dials down the tempo for a laid back vibe in an ‘arm out the window’ stylee. Clean, crisp, with stunning arrangement and production, ‘The Way’ could easily (and I mean easily) be in the top 10 in the UK.

Rüfüs Vs. SymbolOne

The On the Fruit Records release of Australian Indie-Electro band Rüfüs’s ‘We Left’ reMix EP s almost upon us!

We’ve already heard the Ride The Universe reMix and beaumont’s reMix of ‘Paris Collides’ so lets check out SymbolOne’s take on the title track. It’s an epic and bombastic four and a half minutes, loaded with majestic strings and House piano over an almost Italo bassline and some nice Tropical percussion. SymbolOne have done a stunning job on the arrangement, the finale and strings solo will push you over the edge.

Cyndi Seui looses control

Cyndi Seui

Do you like your synths screaming, 80’s, and loaded with Funk? Of course you do!

Then you should check out the new track from Thai ElectroPop producer Cesar B. Be Guzman A.K.A. Cyndi Seui. Leaning heavily on the French Touch side of things, Cesar rocks the retro keys and vocoder with a Disco power reminiscent of ‘Discovery’ era Daft Punk. ‘Loose Control’ has all the elements you want in a weekend Nu-Disco tune to keep you dancing, in fact the tune was written exclusively for the opening of Bangkok Club DEMO.

♫ Cyndi Seui – Loose Control
