Diamond Cut reMix Starrset

Unique American Rave/Pop/Hip-Hop duo Starrset have got one of our favourite reMixers of the moment Diamond Cut to tackle their track ‘My Face’.

The original is a Rave-Rock-Rap part tune which Diamond Cut throw out the window before grabbing their synths (yay!). This is tight as anything, the beat and arpeggios command your attention, you can feel the whole song just building to the soaring synth solo kicking in. I love this stuff!

Computer Club & Frankmusik!!!

Heavy, dirty Electro with UK ElectroPop genius Frankmusik’s vocals? That’s what you get with this collaboration between Vincent and LA’s Computer Club.

Walking the line between ElectroPop and noisy Electro-House, ‘Loosing Streak’ is taken from the forthcoming ‘Nerd Secrets’ 9-track EP.

Computer Club has also dropped this reMix of SynthPop classic ‘Don’t You Want Me’ by The Human League (who we are eagerly awaiting news of their Wall Of Sound release from) that brings that unmistakable riff to the dancefloor by beefing up the drums and bass.

Jump Jump Dance Dance

LA based Electro-Indie-Rock duo Jump Jump Dance Dance are releasing their début single, ‘Show Me The Night’ on 26th March, and it’s a catchy party track with an LCD Soundsystem crossed with The Whip feel to it.

The single contains some great reMixes. Grum looks like he’s got his eyes on Russ Chimes’ constantly-amazing-nu-disco-remixes crown as he’s pumping out fantastic mix after mix and this one is no exception with a killer bassline and retro synths. ElectroPop newcomers Human Life turn in this hazy, summery, Disco tune that kicks into some old school rave chords.

Eliza Doolittle reMixed by Acid Washed

Eliza Doolittle is the next, hotly tipped, up and coming, London based, female singer/songwriter. It’s a pretty crowded genre but the kind of thing that will make her stand out is reMixes like this one, by Paris’ Acid Washed.

The disco duo come up with a half Nu-Disco, half retro Acid House mix up for this mix with forms a nice backing track for Eliza’s chilled vocals, which serve as a counterpoint to the upbeat track.

Fear Of Tigers reMix Yes Giantess

Neon Gold have got so many fantastic artists and producers on speed dial that any combination of their associated acts is bound to produce stunning results.

But this hook up of Indie-ElectroPopsters Yes Giantess an the ever wonderful Fear Of Tigers sounds just too good to be true, but it’s not, it manages to live up to expectations!

The Starsmith produces ‘The Ruins’ is a great SynthPop track to begin with, but Fear Of Tigers knocks it out of the park, lifting the track into a epic Nu-Disco powerhouse, a retro synth monster soundtrack to your teenage summers!

♫ Yes Giantess – The Ruins (Fear Of Tigers reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire)

The single, ‘The Ruins’ drops 8th March.

My Favorite Robot cover The Cure’s ‘Fascination Street’

Montreal DJ and production duo My Favorite Robot are about to drop their ‘Fascination Reworked’ single.

The single, a cover of The Cure’s ‘Fascination Street’ is backed with reMixes by Omid 16b and Elevator People. I’m digging the hell out of the Omid 16b version, it’s a dark analog cross between 80’s Hip-Hop Electro and Cabaret Voltaire, it’s Old School Electro sensibilities just make you remember everything you loved about heavy basslines and a TR-808. Elevator People go in a totally different direction with a hypnotic Deep House take that will go down massively on a late night dancefloor.

‘Fascination Reworked’ is out soon on Mile End Records.

Diamond Cut reMixes The Candle Thieves

We’ve been very impressed with many of Diamond Cut’s recent reMixes so when a new one hits the electronic rumors inbox it always makes us sit up and pay attention.

Here he has turned his skills to Lo-Fi bedroom popsters The Candle Thieves and their track ‘We’re All Gonna’ Die (Have Fun)’ turning the quirky Indie-Pop track into a smooth ElectroPop journey that carries you away on sweeping synths whist retaining the intimate feel of the original. Great stuff!

The ‘We’re All Gonna’ Die (Have Fun)’ single is out 29th March on Downtown Records
